“We fucked up, and that’s why I’m here to cry about people being mean to me on the internet again. Also I’m super not sorry and it definitely will happen again” -Linus
Even their apology video with the dbrand plug-in at the end, pretty cringey. They’re like that Key and Peele slap ass skit, they need to plug-in their sponsors like an addiction. If they wouldn’t have mentioned which sponsor, then yeah stupid joke to lighten the mood, but they had to mention dbrand.
You can watch our progress transparently… on floatplane"
Is all I loosely heard from it.
Shame his newly appointed CEO has to deal with this, I feel like he should have been the only one in the video. It would have put extra value and emphasis on his message, and cut out all the blame passing and job title responsibilities; they could have dealt with all the other stuff separately. They shouldn’t need to put their staff out there to dry like that (even if they’re management), the issue is blatantly deeper rooted.
If they’re trying to address their accuracy, management processes, or talk about video content burnout that influence their staff and viewers, it should have been short and sweet. They should have posted an update video to show us the progress. Not make promises and jokes and put half of it behind a paywall.
They wrote and uploaded their apology so quickly, they didn’t even let the fallout settle before more controversy came inevitably to light. Now they need to eventually address that in a video too seeing as there’s an investigation. Though it would have been hard to comment on year old incidences without an investigation to be fair.
I was told that when making apologies don’t use too many if at all any reasons… Justifying your action with excuses means you felt there was an exception. They shouldn’t have gone into specifics and just said “God damn we really ballsed that one up”.

Really it’d be like, “I’m sorry… Just like this segue to our sponsor!”
They can’t put out a statement without a segue. It’s just not allowed! They love that word.

I wonder why Dbrand would even offer? That’s pretty messed up and certainly makes me think less of them.
“I am truely sorry - for all the money I’m going to lose”
You got that from the video? The comment was hot headed, but I thought the video was the best they could have done.

"And a message from our sponsor! Just kidding…
DBrand did offer though. :D

The video is overall good, just not the linus part.
