I'm studying a bachelor's degree in marketing and communication and one of our teachers used Jake Paul as an example of super aggressive and illegal advertisiment to kids
The whois registration lookup stuff was fantastic, you're one of the only youtubers I know that does a solid amount of research before switching on the camera for these types of videos. Run for office.
Not hating on Shane, but he was just too soft for the series. He should stray away from these types of “documentaries” because they’re anything but and just spread lies to his audience. It’s his responsibility as a respected influencer in the community to have his limits and know when to stop.
I agree... Honestly, I love Shane and when he is with all his friends goofing around, that's when his content is funniest but his videos where he "exposes" UA-camrs are so fluffy nowadays.
Thank you so much for this. Shane distorted the absolute truth about Jake Paul, not to mention Shane himself is so nice he wouldn’t ever REALLY go in on Jake to begin with. During the interview Jake looked like he was trying really hard to act like he was being sincere, but anyone over the age of 25 should be able to see right through his BS.
*Is he or is he not a sociopath? Sets a pretty low bar for him to have to clear in order to be redeemed* Best line in this video, pretty much sums up the problem with Shane's series.
A while ago my little sister started watching jake Paul. Me and my little sister has always been taught to respect money and really question ourselves if it is worth the money. But when she started watching jake Paul it was almost like she changed.. she somehow convinced my dad that she should buy jake Paul’s merch and a hoodie is VERY expensive. + we live in a different country so shipping is also very expensive. She had saved money to buy a super expensive hoodie which was completely not something she would normally do. When I found out I questioned her about it and the only response I could get from her was “but it’s cool” and “I want it” and she only got more and more defensive about it. When the hoodie finally arrived she wanted to buy more, luckily my dad said no. She got extremely upset about that. But it didn’t take long for her to begin questioning what she had done. She regretted buying it since she barely had any money left. And she never wears it anymore, I don’t even think I’ve seen it in months. Now even she can’t understand why she bought it. Watching jake Paul literally changed her during that time. It’s fucking creepy
Luckily your little sister understood what she had done wrong. Imagine what had happened to other children who didn't. It's sad to think how some people could be as stubborn and so full of ego, that they may actually get away with it.
He understands that children will save up/convince their parents, buy the merch, and then grow out of his content. When they do that, they hide the merch in shame. This sounds like a bad move, but actually sets it up so that nobody's complaining or causing issues because shame is a motivator, and the cycle continues. Straight predatory.
I went into Shane's series thinking Jake was vapid, manipulative, and lacking self-awareness. I left Shane's series thinking Jake was vapid, manipulative, and lacking self-awareness.
@Crystal Matthews He's also very aware he's manipulating children. In fact, he built an entire bussiness empire off of that. It was no accident that he got as far as he did. He is intelligent. Very intelligent and insightful. He knows the game, and he's exploiting it mercilessly.
@Doodle McFoofle Yeah the fact that all his critics seems to believe that he's an idiot despite the fact that Jake seems to be a very capable marketer/businessman only shows how adapt he is a crafting his public image. you can't be outraged at someone you think is dumb just mildly annoyed. He's literally breaking so many content advertising laws and pumping corporate propaganda into kids heads. that he should be given a serious fine by the FCC but the best argument most people come up with when watching his videos "he's an asshole".
This video's not really the same without the devil shadowing you for an interview under false pretenses to give an unethical diagnosis about Jake's soul without his knowledge
@@katnorris4820 You realize..........that people can have differing opinions on films right? I don't enjoy the Last Jedi but I don't give a shit if someone else does.
this channel is so insanely underrated... these are top notch quality videos in every way. from the editing to the information to the presentation 👌👌👏👏
Yep, I can't believe for example we in Italy have some unfunny, shitty gameplay channels with 2+ millions subs (and in Italy we are only 60 millions!) and a channel like this, which anyone speaking English could see, has only 400k+ subs.. So sad 😓
@@nerdcity I have to shamefully cop to not being a Twitter-user. But l do appreciate you giving due credit nonetheless. Perhaps you could pass on my accolades to (the guy playing) The Whore of Babylon. While I have your attention: I recently discovered your channel and admire the work you guys do very much. Keep kicking ass.
Plus by acting Idiotic, Jake is able to climb higher and higher. He appeals to the younger generation and warps their opinions. Our media is a fucking nightmare, where free speech is manipulated to silence and increase the sound of other speeches. It's sort of terrifying for me, I guess.
"It's... it's ridiculous!" *all of Nerd City's arguments are instantly reduced to ash and that ash is scattered by the four winds all across the globe and Jake Paul celebrates it by making t-shirts which he guilt trips children into buying*
As the argument I made before just because Logan and Jake Paul say their content is for children doesn't exactly mean it's for children 12 and under it could be meant for teenagers because in Jake Paul's eyes teenagers are still children he's 22 after all and to be honest it's not Logan or Jake Paul's fault if those children by that shit it's the parents fault for not knowing how to say no
You need to stop criticizing Logan and Jake Paul and criticize people's fucking parenting skills and another thing if it wasn't for Logan and Jake Paul there would be a lot of dead teenagers because nowadays a lot of teenagers suffer with depression and we need a glimmer of hope and Light if it wasn't for Logan and Jake Paul i wouldn't be here nerd city is sickening because all he does is focuse on the negativity he rips people apart doesn't even notice let alone care
There are people out there who don't even care about their children people out there who would rather watch their child fall instead of grow Logan and Jake Paul try their hardest to pull us out of those dark holes by putting their content out there knowing the consequences of their actions they know there are so many unhappy people out there people who refuse to wake up in the mornings because they're tired of waking up and everyday being completely horrible there like the angel that takes the gun out of your hand and tells you that you have so much opportunity why throw it away
J gw Nah, he’s just a bad person. And he’s avoiding the exact consequences of his actions because then he would feel bad about himself. As The Devil said “(...) You have less of an excuse because you’re not a sociopath”
Have you heard him try to speak? His overuse of the filler word "like" makes him a dumbass who can't communicate properly. Plus he's totally talentless to boot
It sucks that I watched 8- 40+minute videos just to realize the entire series was a joke. Nothing was truly addressed, Jake blamed his actions on his Father/Brother/Ohio/Alissa/etc. Never on himself. What you've shown here was really surprising and I'm completely disgusted by Jake pretending to be oblivious.
Whitney Chapin be disgusted with Shane "Softball" Dawson. because Shane had access to every bit of information Nerd City did here. Shane was lazy, and knew he didnt need to dig. he got what he came for: VIEWS. over 100 million. for fluff.
Same. It was everything I thought it would be when I watched the trailer. I kept watching, hoping to be surprised but I ended up super frustrated and disappointed in Shane.
It was a great expose on how Shane switched from his relatively decent coverage of Tanacon to a sensationalist, drawn out scam that catered towards Jake Paul's own fans. The ULTIMATE BAMBOOZLE
As the video showed, no, it's not. If given the time to write a script, he can actually be pretty damn clear and coherent. Off-the-cuff, he's less clear, but sh*t, so am I. So are a lot of people, even people who are otherwise good communicators. Speaking takes more brain power than typing, in the coordination sense, leaving less to use on things like making a clear point.
Hardly.. it just calls out for Jake's aggressive business tactic, but it basically covers 3-4% of Shane's entire documentary. He covered the remaining 97-96% by saying "Boohoo.. who cares.." literally. It's funny, I'll give you that.. but it's far from being called a masterpiece.. if we have to compare this to a content cop for example.. or Gokanaru's video about H3H3.. this is pretty shitty.
ReallyUnexplainable it doesn’t cover most of shane’s documentary because most of the doc is either drama between creators or fluff for entertainment, neither of which have anything to do with the direction of this video. i’ve seen every video you’re referring to here and i genuinely do not think that, in terms of conciseness and depth of research, any of them rival what this video is able to do. content cops are great and don’t get me wrong i love them and they’re very well made, but by nature they don’t hone in on one specific facet of criticizing a person and instead usually are broader strokes and thrive on the already established public distaste for a creator. nerd city is fleshing out this one specific part of shane’s doc that they believe to be the most flawed and important (as do i) and are debunking it in a more concrete, factual, and undeniable way than any other commentary piece i’ve ever seen on jake paul or literally anyone else. this video doesn’t rely on anything but the evidence it presents, no funny insults or retorts necessary. and i personally think that that’s something only nerd city has pulled off this well, in this video and most others on the channel.
@@kitkat1595 No offense, but thinking that that specific part of the documentary is the most important is ridiculous. The documentary was an in dept observation of Jake Paul's character. His past, his relationships, his motivations and so on. Why do you think that every single youtuber that was asked about it didn't give a shit about whether he was a greedy piece of shit or not? because they didn't care, they all knew that he was one because they all are. Shane's documentary was so successful because it gave us what we wanted. A peek inside jp's odd mind. Honestly, I believe that what nerd city wanted to do is to jump on the success of a great series. If you don't lose sight of what the documentary is about, you realize that what nc did is to nitpick one relatively unimportant part of the entire documentary, and built a video around that.
It was surprisingly good performance, especially for a youtuber video. I was just gonna open another window after the video ended and move on with my life, but this 4 minute skit convinced me to subscribe. Hope the rest of the content in this channel is just as good.
@@voilvelev6775 hell yeah. It's just as well researched and ball busting as this. Watch the video where he talks about the abuse that cody endures with daddy o five. It's definitely one of the harder to watch videos on the subject...
Shane, in the most waffling tone ever: “I don’t know if you know right from wrong, Jake” Jake: “I don’t see a problem with it” Me: YEAH, THAT’S EXACTLY THE PROBLEM, BRO Despite Shane being more wishy-washy than a goddamn laundromat, he simultaneously presented the fastest-resolved line of thinking in the history of all journalism, AND he was responsible for the most accidentally-honest moment that Jake Paul has had in his whole UA-cam career. That’s almost kinda impressive. (EDIT: just to clarify, I still don’t like Shane Dawson.)
the Devil’s monologue is literally the message i’ve been trying to get out there all over twitter as soon as i saw Shane’s bullshit series! it’s good to know i’m not crazy and someone actually saw it! thank you mr. Devil☺️
Jake cant use his demographic as an excuse?! Its the way he constantly and illegally pushes his merch on his audience.. its shadly regardless of who is audience is, but the even shadier part is his tactics would not work on older fans because its fucking ridiculous and older people cant get easily brainwashed by someone just repeating "go by my shit"...
I actually did not buy the entire series. I love Shane but he is not a good narrator, let alone a good interviewer. He set out the rule of "if he lies, i'm out" but he has no one with a sense to point out the lie of this dipshit. All he has going for this is himself, Andrew and a "licenced" therapist who works mostly on eating disorder and sticks to her book of symptoms as the Bible. He got emotionally attached to Jake (just like every person he made his docu-series) and went with the fixer role. And just like any good girls want to turn the bad guys around. You're already known the answer. Yes, knowing someone's root can answer a lot of questions but what we need is not explanation of the actions. We need to point out that these actions are not appropriate and nothing, nothing else can be excuse for that, except, Jake Paul, you my friend, is fucking greedy and manipulative. Easy, simply, elegant, just like the devil.
Have you seen Drew Gooden's video "I join Team 10 so you don't have to" where he gets a scam alert for joining Team 10s "inner circle" ? I really really wish someone who wasn't as empathic as Shane made the documentary. He's so bad at pushing hard questions and just can't stick to one narrative. He said he'd walk out if Jake lied to him in the least, but did he? Nope.
I really like Shane, but I feel like he doesn't really put in enough research before these projects. And like you said, he's just too damn empathetic. He needs an ACTUAL producer (not some useless therapist pretending to be one with insight like HE LIKES HIS DOG) or at least someone bitchy enough to bite the bullet and call shit out when needed. I did appreciate that he really did seem to try and explain to Jake about the advertising thing, but dude can't even figure out his dickhead brother fucked him over and scapegoated his ex, he's not gonna understand broadcasting ethics lmao
probably,he's just too nice or scared what jake would do even he does grill him with hard questions even though he said to ask him anything plus i was so annoyed that shane was kinda taking in all the crap he said like come onnnn
That's true. And jakes main objective is to sell to kids and younger kids are the best to sell too as parents just want to shut them up or get what they want. Jake is a great marketer. He is not a good person. He did lie though.
Shane definitely is not someone who should be interviewing controversial people and subject matter. From this documentary and tanacon documentary, we all learned that he is incapable of being unbiased and asking the hard questions and seeing through the subject’s bullshit.
From what I've seen from his content, he's a good guy, albeit spineless. He DEFINITELY isn't suited for the content he chose to focus on, but that's where the money's at.
yea I mean Tana is his friend of course he's going to be bias, I completely agree with you. He, also I think is ''too nice'' he's not really ''challenging''.
It makes me happy that there are people that aren't just gushing about how amazing Shane's series and not questioning why Jake was shot as super sympathetic and just misguided. I was really disappointed with how the series turned out. My opinion on Jake Paul has not changed.
shane summing up nerd city's video as "they don't like that you're advertising to children" and jake's response being "yeah, well, shut up." is the most immature, broad, overlook to well researched criticism that I've ever heard.
Its really common in the subjects of all of Shane's youtube documentaries. The go to defense that Shane backs them up on in is "I'm too stupid scam people, if I fucked someone it was out of love!!!"
herrerafour Honestly, iDubbbz would get curbstomped if Nerd City saw iDubbbz as a bad channel. Luckily for everyone, iDubbbz doesn’t do anything to warrant aggression.
That sounds hilarious. I'd love if that happened. Imagine how vicious it would get. It's so boring watching Idubbbz fight channels that can't even properly defend themselves.
You know Shane never addressed the conflicting stories of Jake and Alissa. Neither of their stories add up. Someone is lying and doesn't call them out on it.
Bro you have no idea how much this opened my eyes. I just passed him off as a complete moron who got lucky because he fit a personality type that young kids are fond of and managed to make a quick buck. I figured he would fade away as he ran out of ideas, but I didn't realize how insidious and calculated he actually is. It is kinda scary.
@@tonybalony1811 I'm sure a lot of people DO overlook Jake Paul because he's white, but it's annoying when you assume everyone falls into that. It's also counterproductive. Maybe next time try for something like "I feel like Jake Paul gets overlooked so often because he's an average white guy". Theres no need to ascribe blame directly to someone, you know? I get what youre trying to say though, and you're probably not wrong. I'm just sure there are also a lot of people who ignore Jake Paul because they literally never cared enough to look into it.
@@tonybalony1811 attractive, really? im better looking than this guy. looks like a truck drove over his face. and thats with makeup on and after video editing. and he dyes his hair blonde.
Shane Dawson is way too passive to actually get results from this. Jake knew this doc would make him the victim and he lies relentlessly. Jake knows what he is doing and I am sad Shane played along.
I can totally understand Shane's POV. I hate confrontation so I'd have trouble being aggressive and pushing Jake to address the allegations. I dont think shane was a good pick for the interview.
Wow. I do not mean this as a compliment, but Jake is way smarter than I thought. It's just that previously, I've always thought of him as a moron, because that's how he presents himself. But watching those business clips, it seems like he is, in fact, very intelligent and fully aware of the immoral thing he's doing, which, in my opinion, makes it way worse.
Same here. Thought he was a dumbass psychopath, but as he spoke eloquently and calmly about complex business topics I realised he's actually a great businessman who knows how to play dumb while he robs children. What a disgusting excuse for a human being.
It was really surprising; the way he faked being a total idiot in front of Shane, speaking like a high-schooler. And even though Shane's theory of Jake being a 'sociopath' seemed overly exaggerated and silly initially, I'm starting to think it might actually be true. I don't think anyone could be that oblivious or dumb, it's definitely something more sinister.
Actually you could totally be right about that. I contemplated on that being the case a little while ago, perhaps when he's expressing his emotions while conversing he just sounds like a child. Perhaps that's his actual mentality. But when it comes to business, he could just be intelligent and experienced. Now I wouldn't go as far as to say he's an intellectual in the business world, because if he talks like that in his day to day life he's far from it. @@Kaiii-yuh
Eureka Mreum - unfortunately a lot of the richest people in the world got that way through scumbaggery. It’s unusual that we get to watch how one guy did it from start to finish.
Logically speaking, good people won't be rich (monetarily) because they are helping others. A CEO, for example, who is a good person would pay his employees a fair price for their work. A bad person CEO would pay employees less than they deserve, outsource jobs, and pay themselves a nice big bonus with all the extra money they save. This is why a good person can not become rich.
@@thehelpfulshadow919 I don't agree that good people *can't* become rich, just that its easier to become rich when you don't have all those troublesome principles and morals holding you back, especially since you can't count on everyone else to also have or keep to those principles.
@@Delta-es1lg It's kind of sad that just because bill gates is *slightly* more generous than every other rich CEO, he's the centre of so many conspiracy theories. But it's just more proof that we need proper egalitarian communism, not whatever the fuck the Chinese or North Koreans are doing.
Ugh, you know he won't, though, because he has no reason to. There's no catching up to it. Besides that, as soon as he gets burnt out on an overdose or Eastern philosophy or something, a new attractive, charismatic, go-gettem yuppie is popping up in his place for corporations to reach down and grab the strings of.
This whole doc was a farce. Shane beguiled his fans thinking this is a negative expose on JP but clandestinely tried to humanize him, without Shane properly investigating him or asking/pressing Jake about the egregious things he has done. What happened to the clip where Shane says "Im worried he's not going to know what this documentary is about?"
I don't even know what the documentary was about. After 8 parts I sat back confused, when it ended I actually checked if it was a mistake or something. I literally can't find what the point of the series was, it lead to nothing.
CommunityServesUs exactly right. everything in this Nerd City video was fucking available to Shane. he either chose not to research, or did so and decided not call bullshit.
The second that he got an actual face to face meeting with Jake (or Tana for that matter) should have been a massive red flag to fans that this would be a whitewash. "Brands" are EXTREMELY protective of their image and Jake didn't become rich by being stupid with his, he knew what image Shane wanted to paint and was ready for it
I came back to this video after a few weeks of living in the preview of new UA-cam that awaits for us in 2020. And the sad thing is... UA-cam has gotten the consequences of Jake Paul's actions, but everyone except from him, is suffering from the punishment. With the new COPPA regulations, a lot of videos that are not for childrens are being marked as such by the broken algorithm that UA-cam implemented. But the MAJORITY of Jake Pauls videos that are CLEARLY for childrens are left alone, showing, once again, youtube's favoritism for the Pauls. I just hope that they sue his ass in 2020 or all of this trouble will be for nothing.
The fact Jake even thought of squatting domains for Team 10 members, it just shows how switched on he actually is in this business. He's had millions of people on that he's a reckless idiot but there's a whole other side to him I don't think Shane quite discovered.
Shane is afraid of negativity, he is afraid of any type of backlash... Look how he reacted mid-series when people stated their dislike. He is a push over. Nerd City did a great video and brought up points no-one considered before then Shane goes into his '8-part, easy money' series that had no substance, and here we are again with Nerd City showcasing the reality. I've liked Shane from the start but his 'doco-series' are just garbage. The only thing he has going for him is his access to these hot-topic people.
This was so therapeutic to watch. It pissed me off so much that he just shrugged off legitimate criticism as hate and played up " my family is messed up so I have an excuse for being shitty"... no dude you are 22 time to stop making excuses for your actions and start taking responsibility for them.
It's a load off to know other people have not only noticed but are doing something about it. Thanks to Nerd City for doing what I am too lazy and unskilled to do!
@@akielstraker if they ever team up, they'd take down any channel they went after. idubbbz already has a huge effect on channels. if nerd city were to join...oh shit you'd see channels retiring left and right.
Sure he's living life on easy mode right now, but it can't last forever. His boyish good looks allow him to get away with his antics and still capture a young audience, but as he gets older kids won't want to watch him anymore and some other clown will take his place. He will also become less able to easily dodge responsibility for his shitty behavior. When at last he loses grip on his popularity, I doubt he'll have the self-awareness to realize that he never curated the skills needed to create content with lasting appeal. Then maybe he'll stage some desperate stunts to stay relevant before dropping in obscurity. Until that point he will continue to be surrounded by fake people who leech on him for exposure and money while frittering away his fortune. Inevitably when the world moves on he has to contend with the fact that his entire career was in service to nobody but himself and all of his fake friends will vanish. Like many before him who become addicted to their fame his life may fall apart when the constant adoration turns into indifference. I wouldn't at all be surprised to see news headlines 5 years from now of "Former UA-cam star Jake Paul arrested and in rehab".
why? he works super duper hard to reach what he's reaching, and he's the best of the best in the industry. Nobody else understand influencer marketing, brand building and general marketing practice as jake paul. He's an absolute genius and deserves every single cent he makes for the amount of work & intelligence he puts into every single decision in his work.
@@hiya2793 Just because what he is doing did involve a whole lot of effort and is remarkably intelligent an well thought out doesn't mean that he deserves any of that money earned from it. The fact of the matter is that what he is doing is literally illegal, he chose his target demographic of young children, aged "8 -16" although being honest its probably averaged at lower than that and almost every video is over 50% advertisements. 50% is fucking absurd, literally 7 minutes from a 14 minute video is ad reads, that's over double what the law allows in terms of advertisements aimed towards young audiences. He literally manipulates small children into buying his cheaply made, unoriginal shirts that he can't even be bothered to purchase original artwork for, instead just finding shitty clip-art from the internet and plastering on there as if he owns it, which is also against copyright laws as some if not all of the artwork is permitted only for personal use, not commercial; not to even mention that he gives no credit or compensation for using said art. The man is blatantly scamming small children left right and centre to earn his fortune, and you believe it's all well earned money that he deserves, what a joke. Imagine somebody spent 5 years planning a bank heist, something that takes countless hours of work, and a hell of a lot of intelligence, do they deserve the money that they illegally took from other people? Yeah, not really, as impressive as it may be. (I understand this analogy is not perfectly applicable but the basic principal is close enough). At the end of the day, Jake whole 'business model' is preying on young audiences in order to shill his own bullshit for an enormous profit, with no thought or care for anybody or anything other than his own bank balance, absolute scum. I appreciate the 5 people that will read this through, for those who, understandably, can't be bothered: TL;DR - Jake Paul big brain, Jake Paul bad, Jake Paul target small bois with many ads (very no good), Jake Paul make bad shirts with clip-art and no credit given (also no good), Jake Paul is an asshole. Have a nice day all. xx
Is he tho? He said in an interview after the series that he “doesn’t think jake Paul is a good person “ and that he’s “done with the Paul’s bs”. Then again idk for sure 🤷🏻♀️
carolina stop acting like Shane is this innocent snowflake when he is an adult who knows the world, has access to internet, knows what people talk and probably spread biased sugarcoated half truths on purpose. Accept it: either Shane is the most gullible and blind person in the world for not knowing any of this stuff about Jake, or he lies about actually working hard when it comes research for his videos. Both of them can't be true at the same time
muddacrazy It's always been the case that media can completely switch perceptions of bad people. UA-cam is just the newest form of media, and as much as I love Shane, he's quickly becoming a bit of a propaganda machine.
@@josec8896 By doing what? putting clip-art on a low quality shirt and manipulating kids into buying it? That's not work, at the least it's lazy and manipulative, at most, it's legitimately illegal.
@@josec8896 Just wait till he has to answer to Civil Court. The FTC is on to him now because he stupidly acknowledged that he's targetting children with his content. He won't go to jail, but you can bet your ass the fines for the copyright of the images he puts on his merch and improperly marketing to children are gonna take a significant piece of that fortune. People aren't ignorant to it anymore. I'm guessing you're one of his preteen fans so I'll put this bluntly to you. Being rich is not a substitute for being a good person. And not everyone who is rich got there by doing things legally. He isn't selling drugs or anything like that. But what he's doing is still against the law, and the law is catching up with him.
Why is everyone being so over protective of shane? I get that he does not have ill intentions but he is an adult and has shown to make more rational decisions as compared to jake paul. So shane does know what he is putting out and how he wanted to portray jake paul which was to make us feel bad for him by dismissing the manipulating children to buy merch as well as other sob stories. Therefore, shane dawson is actually part of the problem here.
He's an original, older part of the problem which has stayed the same youtubers are amateurs there is nothing wrong with that but they make pretty disposable work but due to the nature of it make insane money which gives them more reach. But notice it's so rare for any of them to manage to stay relevant professionally or produce quality work. Shane made a shitty movie so he scrapped getting better and went back to vlogs, the Pauls are at least honest about how they get disposability and advertising
The fact that Shane didn't even really press Jake at all about "the bad things he did" to Alissa, namely sleeping with other girls constantly while throwing a fit if she so much as flirted with a guy besides him, really made Shane look awful honestly. He was far more sympathetic to Jake than Alissa.
this is exactly what ive been saying! i was so frustrated by everyone in shanes comments going "aww poor Jake :'(" as if a messed up family justifies anything.
Right? I'm so sick people people trying to use their bad childhood as an excuse for their current behavior. Oh BOOHOO! You had a bad childhood? Well join the millions of other people who had a bad childhood too. I had a bad childhood and would NEVER use that as an excuse for anything that I do now.
this is the holy grail of jake paul videos. should anyone ever make another video on jake paul after this, it is a requirement to call back and link to this video
I keep coming back for devil you are so good and those lines specially the one " what you have is a greed. Your whole life is built around it greed and vanity and you are gonna end up with me someday"
I lost total respect for Shane after that series. I feel he’s just become a PR guy for influencers with bad reputations doing damage control. He literally has taken 3 very controversial UA-cam stars and totally attempted to change public perception of them. He cherry picks what he shows and asks, leaves tons of important stuff out, and let’s Jake act like a dumb kid who isn’t one of the biggest social media influencers out there. He has gone extremely soft on everyone intentionally. He was likely being paid by all of them to rewrite their negative public narratives
I completely agree. Lets just make it clear, Shane MILKS such content very much and really well. Building the hype over it for days and maybe weeks. Make a series of 40+ minutes per video. So every video gets millions of views. This is the absolute heaven for content creators to make money and for someone like Shane who knows what YT algorithm wants to even promote it more (so many views in a short time and a long video = very long watch time). And at the same time, the influencer, like Jake here, benefit from the soft tone and questions of Shane.
He Seems Like A Genuine Good Guy! But I Think He Is Extremely Naieve & Too Much of A Push Over To Effectively Ask Any Kind of Real Hardball Questions & Then Lacks The Tackt To Propperly Call Out The B.S. & Furthermore To Effectively Press People... When They Are Being Dishonest & Trying To Pull The Wool Over Everyone's Eyes, By Being Completely Full of Shit! I Really Don't Like The Whole Commoditization of "Wokeness" Now-A-Day's...

When It Ultimately Reveals Itself To Just Be A Shallow Marketing Ploy Only Used To Sell You Some Useless Bullshit...

Making Up Completely Batshit Crazy Information, & Pandering Towards The Biggest Idiot's, Just To Further Push A False Narative... That He Was Most Likely Paid In Order To Help Push! Now Just What Is The End Game of These "Bad Apple" Actors? Is It All Just To Attract The Kind of Dimwitted Consumer's, In Great Enough Numbers... To Then Turn Around & Sell That Access To Unscrupulous Marketers & The Highest Bidder? Advertisers or Political Partys Who Love A Crowd That's So Easily Tricked, Making The Shiesty Advertiser's Job Easier of Manipulating The Viewers Into Buying There Abysmly Shitty Product's! The "Wokness" Term... It Just Sadly Fosters This Awfully Cancerous All Self Rightious, Know-It-All, Elitist, "God" Superiority Complex Mentality That I Really Don't Like! Now That's Just My 2 Cents!
This channel is so underrated. The amount of research and editing is insane. Your videos are fantastic and I can't wait for you to have millions of subscribers. Love this response. The whole segment in that interview made me cringe. He knows exactly what he's doing.
You know nerd City should leave Logan and Jake alone because all they are is over growin toddlers focus on the UA-camr Eugenia Cooney who is exploiting anorexia causing little girls to follow in her footsteps and kill themselves stop trying to spank the two over growing toddlers and get the insane bitch put in a mental Asylum
I love Shane and all but let’s face it: he’s not a good interviewer. He’s just much too empathetic and easily swayed; it really holds his documentaries back.
No what Shane did was make an entertaining piece, where he pretended to care, when you do that, the subject tends to let their guard down. Watch Louis Theroux's work to watch the original master at work. Shanes acting was over the top, it was never meant to be deep, but tongue in cheek.
The problem was Shane saying Jake didn't know right from wrong with his aggresive advertising to children 24/7 , he clearly did, the proof is in everything he touches, for Shane not to research that and shove it back in Jake's face is poor journalism period.
@@oldboy2399 I LOVE Shane, but i agree. He should have done more research and it bothers me so much he's buddies with Jake now. I've always said he was too gullible due to his extreme empathy, I just never knew it was this bad.
The series Shane made, felt like a telenovela (soap opera) they dragged redundant information for weeeks... in weeks!!! Shane did the same thing! 8 videos was too much.
When Jake was saying he doesnt think kids would say "hey mom, I need this to be cool, buy it for me" I knew right then and there he was either stupid or lying lol. Thats exactly how kids think most of the time!
Lorromire well that’s why I said most, not all. I was never like that as a kid, but my sister for sure was. She always wanted what everyone else had and what was “cool”. I knew a few people like that. It’s how general marketing to kids works
I wish everyone who watches Shanes series would see this. It really bothers me that he shows some emotion and vulnerability and people are suddenly ok with him.
I watched both and I think because of how nice Shane is it makes Jake seem not that bad but when Nerd comes around and there’s no Shane to save Jake it really snaps me back to reality that Jake is a dick always has been a dick and always will be a dick
I've watched all eight parts of Shane's series and I still hate Jake and Erika. I smelled bullshit from the beginning he opened his mouth in the series. I also don't like how Erika is seen as some kind of a saint and kisses Jake's ass. She is just as bad as Jake. But sadly some people are buying into their bullshit.I'm glad Nerd City dragged his ass with this video.
I don't see why people think Shane is a reliable narrator. He gets emotionally invested in his subjects and immediately aligns himself to them. Even the way he asks the "hard" questions is like it physically pains him to do so and he trips over himself to explain "I'm not against you or anything I don't mean this in a bad way omgomgomg" get some dignity, dude. He even takes any blame Jake could've gotten by saying he doesn't know right from wrong. Pretty sure you're not a licensed psychologist, Shane, and I'm pretty sure the quack you brought on isn't either. Basically, he goes in with biases and his loyal fans follow. How is this not harmful? I'm just so over everything
I agree sosososososososoososos much! You can not be so invested like Shane is and then produce an un-biased documentary. I honestly think that Shane had to get everything approved by Jake and whatever management he has and he had to skip on some things. You can not be titled the 'best' investigative channel and miss SO MANY shady things Jake has done. Even if Shane brought up SOME, he immediately starts excusing Jake and his actions by sayig 'But I don't think you are the bad guy. I think you're missunderstood' etc. Like let him speak on his own. Answering for whoever you are interviewing is pushing a nerrative. Stop. Shane is a good person and a decent youtuber but he is overrated when it comes to these documentaries.
Yeah, same. I was wondering too especially after the Tana vids he did. When I heard he was doing the Jake Paul doc, I went "He is going to play the positive role in this" and look where we are now. Now Nerd City have to bring Jake down, again, as well as Shane. I know I am a center person, but even I know when someone is clearly in the wrong and have to side on it.
It's not because he's "invested", he's using these scumbags to boost his own popularity. He's every bit the sociopath as the people he does videos on are. I wish people could see through his bullshit, but that's sociopaths for you.
Idubbbz relies on crude humor and insults while Nerd City does the research and takes time to put together an almost inarguable dissertation. Both are entertaining as fuck though, but comparing them isn't fair to either party.
I can't be the only one who felt like this series was a dumpster fire?! No hate to Shane, I adored all his other series, but someone being a nice person shouldn't mean we don't give them honest feedback that can help them further their careers. This series was a mess. The episodes were all over the place, partially because he had to change course halfway in because the sociopath angle got so much backlash (and it was indeed a terrible idea to begin with) and the later episodes gave no clarity or real insight and just created more questions. I just ended up disliking everyone he interviewed. I already realized they were human beings. What else is new.
omg i hated it sm. and it wasn't even bc of jake. it was all the ppl commenting "TEAAAAAA SIS" when we all fucking knew all this information before we watched the series. shane just did a recap on jake's social and personal life that is known on the internet. literally nothing new emerged. wtf
It's sad though because Shane has a much bigger platform than Nerd City. If Shane showed the points Nerd City made in this video, it would reach a bigger audience and hopefully stop some kids from being manipulated.
@@Alejandro-ts8wi ur saying the mind of nerdcity. My response was ppl who don't know nerdcity will be saying who is that guy...don't think Shane will focus on someone if it won't benefit he's channel. What was hard to get that short version of what I said
This shit is stupid, if jake wants to sell merch he is allowed to sell merch, he’s been selling merch since he was like12 and now he’s really good at it. This shit comes across as jealous hate in my opinion. I’m not a jake pauler, I’ve never watched his vlogs and his songs are garbage but if he wants to base a lot of content around his merch and it leads to a ton of merch sales then good for him, everyone needs clothes, even kids.
Watching Jake so ELOQUENTLY explain precisely what he just denied to Shane is EMBARRASSING. I hope Shane get's a commission for these videos, because the cost is gonna come later.
Not a Jake Pauler at all, but I could see where his mind would separate advertising and manipulation for children (even if the law doesn't separate the two for TV and movies). It's possible he doesn't see why it's so bad to advertise that way to kids vs doing so for adults. Whether it's a lack of empathy, perspective, intelligence, or whatever. He could just see advertising as advertising. "I'm just trying to sell shit to make money, not hypnotizing kids and shit like you're inferring when you say the word manipulating!" He could also just be lying and bullshitting. That's very possible as well.
@@darkriku12 Advertisement is manipulation. Its about incentivizing and convincing the viewer to indulge in whats being shown. Manipulating people is a core aspect of advertisement. So if your target demograph is children, and you're advertising to children.. you're trying to manipulate children. Thats why regulations on child advertisement is so much more serious and strict than it is for adults. He definitely knows the difference, as just like this video has shown, he has a strong understanding of how this all works and who his target audience is. Thats part of the reason he's so successful at it; its not dumb luck
@@bloodydove5718 it's also ILLEGAL to even advertise to directly to children in some countries, countries I'm sure where kids watch Jake Paul. Would be interesting to how that plays out if anyone bothers to check him on it.
@@Barbiegaitprop yea, being a brand on a platform with international reach, that makes things real complicated. Is not like how various countries and even states can threaten EA because of their gambling schemes; different countries cant be like "Jake Paul videos arent allowed on youtube here". So if they wanted to challenge him on that, i wonder how that would transpire
@@greenIMONSTER008 It reminds me of the Ajit Pai video that Nerd City did a while ago. He mentioned how big companies send their lobbyists to take up jobs in Congress (FCC) and change laws to give the companies an advantage. Afterward, Ajit goes back to Verizon and collects a huge bonus after leaving the FCC in ruins. It seems like Disney is doing something similar with the Paul bros. Disney trained them, sent them out to Vine and YT. And now the Paul Bros are making deals with Disney and other companies to become "influencers" to kids for those companies. Ugh.
@@DustinMeyerPhotography Fun fact -- big reason why the copyright laws are total crap is that Disney has specifically pushing Congress to change the laws over and over for DECADES
Lego boi 3000 Yeah they were on Vine and UA-cam long before Disney and then Disney fired them over the backlash they were getting, it was causing a lot of negative publicity for Disney.
Why is this video not viral yet. It makes me sick to think that millions of people watched Shane's videos and only a fraction actually learn the truth.
I'm almost a bit upset at the hubris of Shane to think he's some kind of "documentation". He doesn't challenge Logan at all. Doesn't ask the right questions, doesn't get the right expert analysis, just isn't critical of his subject at all. it's less than amateur hour and he's passing it off as professional.
It would't change a thing tho,almost every one who watched the video is thinking that Jake is the poor guy even going to the channel of the Martinez to say how they where "lying"
So glad to hear a mature and adult opinion about those awful Shane videos. As someone with a fresh, unbiased view of both characters (I didn’t know who Shane OR Jake & co were before I started viewing the series, I got roped into watching the series because of DeFranco...hm) I could feel Shane was kinda fake with the excessive overreacting to simple, normal things that most adults encounter in life, but most importantly: I felt he was willingly playing Jake’s sociopathic game, especially considering they both made a killing in views and awarene$$ from this whole series.
I was pretty dissatisfied with the first 5-6 episodes. Something I realized the other day is Shane may feel obligated to put some suspense and conspiracy into his video moving forward since he built a large part of his subscriber base out of people drawn in by that.
I don't think Shane realizes the importance these series have. It might not have been important to prepare better and do research with the Jefree Star one, but Tana's and Jake's should have been done better. Jake's series lacked structure from the start, it was done too much to entertain, and it wasn't taken with all the seriousness it should. I think in the future he will regret not doing a better job.
@Tommy Ledwidge I didn't say he will regret the fame or money he will get from it, I said he will regret not doing a better job and putting quantity over quality. And I just think that because I feel like Shane is an overall good guy that cares about what he produces. Idk, I might be reading too much into it, he also made many crappy videos about testing food for years.
@@rachelsanchis I think people expect things to go a certain way because they don't realize 1) the work involved 2) the way life works.... (that's a big one because I hear clients not understand how the real world works all the time) He is not there to bash or yell at them...it would mean less content of that type....which, I and I'm sure you wouldn't want because then you would have nothing to criticize.
He managed to get Jake Paul on his channel and speak directly addressing the issues. He wasn't going to be able to do this if he was incredibly critical the entire time. Logan Paul doesn't even want to take the risk because Logan just allowed people like NerdCity to be able to call him out the more he speaks.
@@jonathandpg6115 Personally I would prefer a more critical look and more research. The series was messy from the start, because he started filming, editing and uploading, without knowing how it would end, or even knowing what the whole thing was about. It's nice he filmed from the start, because then you see the process, but once he had everything filmed, he should have re-structure everything and edit everything before uploading.. so that it would have make more sense from a storytelling point of view. Idk, I just think he missed the opportunity to make a more compelling story with all the footage he had and the attention he is getting. If you compare it to Jefree's series, Jake's wasn't as planned out, the 3 first episodes are a mess in my opinion, you can't layout the whole sociopathy foundation and then forget about it. That is not good storytelling..
@@squeakydeedsdonesoapclean3719 Never said he had to be incredible critical. But he didn't do proper research, one thing is going into an interview with an open mind, trying to not be too judgemental in order to get someone's opinion without them feeling attacked , and another is 100% believing everything they tell you, without knowing when to call out bs. Nerd city did that, he did the research shane didn't do, and was able to easily find many videos were Jake seems to know a lot about how to market content to children.. Meanwhile in shane's video he was acting all dumb and innocent. And Shane apparently bought it, because he felt the need to explain to Jake why what he does is wrong..
@@galjoenboer4961 If you saw the video you must have noticed that he definetly isn't dumb. Justa malicous child manipulating douchebag that exactly knows what he is doing

Not hating on Shane, but he was just too soft for the series. He should stray away from these types of “documentaries” because they’re anything but and just spread lies to his audience. It’s his responsibility as a respected influencer in the community to have his limits and know when to stop.
I agree... Honestly, I love Shane and when he is with all his friends goofing around, that's when his content is funniest but his videos where he "exposes" UA-camrs are so fluffy nowadays.

Hey Josh Dunn!
W O R D S ! ! !
A while ago my little sister started watching jake Paul. Me and my little sister has always been taught to respect money and really question ourselves if it is worth the money. But when she started watching jake Paul it was almost like she changed.. she somehow convinced my dad that she should buy jake Paul’s merch and a hoodie is VERY expensive. + we live in a different country so shipping is also very expensive. She had saved money to buy a super expensive hoodie which was completely not something she would normally do. When I found out I questioned her about it and the only response I could get from her was “but it’s cool” and “I want it” and she only got more and more defensive about it. When the hoodie finally arrived she wanted to buy more, luckily my dad said no. She got extremely upset about that. But it didn’t take long for her to begin questioning what she had done. She regretted buying it since she barely had any money left. And she never wears it anymore, I don’t even think I’ve seen it in months. Now even she can’t understand why she bought it. Watching jake Paul literally changed her during that time. It’s fucking creepy
Simple psychology. Jake Paul's good at advertising & lying.
Luckily your little sister understood what she had done wrong. Imagine what had happened to other children who didn't. It's sad to think how some people could be as stubborn and so full of ego, that they may actually get away with it.
Yep, that’s marketing. That’s why there’s laws about it, marketers know what they’re doing. Manipulation and brainwashing is scary in any context.
Just for context how old was she?
He understands that children will save up/convince their parents, buy the merch, and then grow out of his content. When they do that, they hide the merch in shame. This sounds like a bad move, but actually sets it up so that nobody's complaining or causing issues because shame is a motivator, and the cycle continues. Straight predatory.
I went into Shane's series thinking Jake was vapid, manipulative, and lacking self-awareness.
I left Shane's series thinking Jake was vapid, manipulative, and lacking self-awareness.

He's also very aware he's manipulating children. In fact, he built an entire bussiness empire off of that. It was no accident that he got as far as he did.

you can't be outraged at someone you think is dumb just mildly annoyed. He's literally breaking so many content advertising laws and pumping corporate propaganda into kids heads. that he should be given a serious fine by the FCC but the best argument most people come up with when watching his videos "he's an asshole".

As the argument I made before just because Logan and Jake Paul say their content is for children doesn't exactly mean it's for children 12 and under it could be meant for teenagers because in Jake Paul's eyes teenagers are still children he's 22 after all and to be honest it's not Logan or Jake Paul's fault if those children by that shit it's the parents fault for not knowing how to say no
You need to stop criticizing Logan and Jake Paul and criticize people's fucking parenting skills and another thing if it wasn't for Logan and Jake Paul there would be a lot of dead teenagers because nowadays a lot of teenagers suffer with depression and we need a glimmer of hope and Light if it wasn't for Logan and Jake Paul i wouldn't be here nerd city is sickening because all he does is focuse on the negativity he rips people apart doesn't even notice let alone care
There are people out there who don't even care about their children people out there who would rather watch their child fall instead of grow Logan and Jake Paul try their hardest to pull us out of those dark holes by putting their content out there knowing the consequences of their actions they know there are so many unhappy people out there people who refuse to wake up in the mornings because they're tired of waking up and everyday being completely horrible there like the angel that takes the gun out of your hand and tells you that you have so much opportunity why throw it away

What you've shown here was really surprising and I'm completely disgusted by Jake pretending to be oblivious.

Same. It was everything I thought it would be when I watched the trailer. I kept watching, hoping to be surprised but I ended up super frustrated and disappointed in Shane.
It was a great expose on how Shane switched from his relatively decent coverage of Tanacon to a sensationalist, drawn out scam that catered towards Jake Paul's own fans.
The ULTIMATE BAMBOOZLE
"Jake's ambiguous, mouth-breathing responses to Shane"
No fair, Doc, that's basically his only form of verbal communication.
As the video showed, no, it's not. If given the time to write a script, he can actually be pretty damn clear and coherent. Off-the-cuff, he's less clear, but sh*t, so am I. So are a lot of people, even people who are otherwise good communicators.

Hardly.. it just calls out for Jake's aggressive business tactic, but it basically covers 3-4% of Shane's entire documentary. He covered the remaining 97-96% by saying "Boohoo.. who cares.." literally. It's funny, I'll give you that.. but it's far from being called a masterpiece.. if we have to compare this to a content cop for example.. or Gokanaru's video about H3H3.. this is pretty shitty.
ReallyUnexplainable it doesn’t cover most of shane’s documentary because most of the doc is either drama between creators or fluff for entertainment, neither of which have anything to do with the direction of this video. i’ve seen every video you’re referring to here and i genuinely do not think that, in terms of conciseness and depth of research, any of them rival what this video is able to do. content cops are great and don’t get me wrong i love them and they’re very well made, but by nature they don’t hone in on one specific facet of criticizing a person and instead usually are broader strokes and thrive on the already established public distaste for a creator. nerd city is fleshing out this one specific part of shane’s doc that they believe to be the most flawed and important (as do i) and are debunking it in a more concrete, factual, and undeniable way than any other commentary piece i’ve ever seen on jake paul or literally anyone else. this video doesn’t rely on anything but the evidence it presents, no funny insults or retorts necessary. and i personally think that that’s something only nerd city has pulled off this well, in this video and most others on the channel.
@@kitkat1595 No offense, but thinking that that specific part of the documentary is the most important is ridiculous. The documentary was an in dept observation of Jake Paul's character. His past, his relationships, his motivations and so on. Why do you think that every single youtuber that was asked about it didn't give a shit about whether he was a greedy piece of shit or not? because they didn't care, they all knew that he was one because they all are. Shane's documentary was so successful because it gave us what we wanted. A peek inside jp's odd mind.
Honestly, I believe that what nerd city wanted to do is to jump on the success of a great series. If you don't lose sight of what the documentary is about, you realize that what nc did is to nitpick one relatively unimportant part of the entire documentary, and built a video around that.
Why is no one talking about the pure brilliance that was the acting of the devil?
Acting?
Ikr it was amazing, it gives me chllis
It was surprisingly good performance, especially for a youtuber video. I was just gonna open another window after the video ended and move on with my life, but this 4 minute skit convinced me to subscribe. Hope the rest of the content in this channel is just as good.
He gets angrier and angrier as the numbers go by. It's so good!!!
@@voilvelev6775 hell yeah. It's just as well researched and ball busting as this. Watch the video where he talks about the abuse that cody endures with daddy o five. It's definitely one of the harder to watch videos on the subject...
Shane, in the most waffling tone ever: “I don’t know if you know right from wrong, Jake”
Jake: “I don’t see a problem with it”
Me: YEAH, THAT’S EXACTLY THE PROBLEM, BRO
Despite Shane being more wishy-washy than a goddamn laundromat, he simultaneously presented the fastest-resolved line of thinking in the history of all journalism, AND he was responsible for the most accidentally-honest moment that Jake Paul has had in his whole UA-cam career. That’s almost kinda impressive. (EDIT: just to clarify, I still don’t like Shane Dawson.)
some rando why don’t you like shane
Shane Dawson sounded like he was trying to approach it in such a way to not make Jake get really defensive and angry about it ngl
One of the best channels on UA-cam right here boys and girls
omg papa where have you been, you've been replaced
Agreed 👌
Good to see you here, buddy. I see you have exquisite tastes!
you should make a video of how NerdCity legally destroyed Jake

Your videos entertain me almost as much as nerd cities lol
I agree.

the Devil’s monologue is literally the message i’ve been trying to get out there all over twitter as soon as i saw Shane’s bullshit series! it’s good to know i’m not crazy and someone actually saw it! thank you mr. Devil☺️
It was My pleasure. Really.
So good! I didn't buy that part either.
Jake cant use his demographic as an excuse?! Its the way he constantly and illegally pushes his merch on his audience.. its shadly regardless of who is audience is, but the even shadier part is his tactics would not work on older fans because its fucking ridiculous and older people cant get easily brainwashed by someone just repeating "go by my shit"...
I actually did not buy the entire series. I love Shane but he is not a good narrator, let alone a good interviewer. He set out the rule of "if he lies, i'm out" but he has no one with a sense to point out the lie of this dipshit. All he has going for this is himself, Andrew and a "licenced" therapist who works mostly on eating disorder and sticks to her book of symptoms as the Bible. He got emotionally attached to Jake (just like every person he made his docu-series) and went with the fixer role. And just like any good girls want to turn the bad guys around. You're already known the answer.
Yes, knowing someone's root can answer a lot of questions but what we need is not explanation of the actions. We need to point out that these actions are not appropriate and nothing, nothing else can be excuse for that, except, Jake Paul, you my friend, is fucking greedy and manipulative. Easy, simply, elegant, just like the devil.
Have you seen Drew Gooden's video "I join Team 10 so you don't have to" where he gets a scam alert for joining Team 10s "inner circle" ?
I really really wish someone who wasn't as empathic as Shane made the documentary. He's so bad at pushing hard questions and just can't stick to one narrative. He said he'd walk out if Jake lied to him in the least, but did he? Nope.
I really like Shane, but I feel like he doesn't really put in enough research before these projects. And like you said, he's just too damn empathetic. He needs an ACTUAL producer (not some useless therapist pretending to be one with insight like HE LIKES HIS DOG) or at least someone bitchy enough to bite the bullet and call shit out when needed. I did appreciate that he really did seem to try and explain to Jake about the advertising thing, but dude can't even figure out his dickhead brother fucked him over and scapegoated his ex, he's not gonna understand broadcasting ethics lmao
probably,he's just too nice or scared what jake would do even he does grill him with hard questions even though he said to ask him anything plus i was so annoyed that shane was kinda taking in all the crap he said like come onnnn
He’s not empathetic, he’s an enabler
That's true. And jakes main objective is to sell to kids and younger kids are the best to sell too as parents just want to shut them up or get what they want. Jake is a great marketer. He is not a good person. He did lie though.
shanes out to make money
Shane definitely is not someone who should be interviewing controversial people and subject matter. From this documentary and tanacon documentary, we all learned that he is incapable of being unbiased and asking the hard questions and seeing through the subject’s bullshit.
From what I've seen from his content, he's a good guy, albeit spineless. He DEFINITELY isn't suited for the content he chose to focus on, but that's where the money's at.
Wether he was "influenced" into going eaay on Jake or not, doesn't matter, he pussied out big time.
yea I mean Tana is his friend of course he's going to be bias, I completely agree with you. He, also I think is ''too nice'' he's not really ''challenging''.
It makes me happy that there are people that aren't just gushing about how amazing Shane's series and not questioning why Jake was shot as super sympathetic and just misguided. I was really disappointed with how the series turned out. My opinion on Jake Paul has not changed.
I said this under another comment. He should have a counterpart who is more assertive and not afraid to call someone out for their bullshit.
shane summing up nerd city's video as "they don't like that you're advertising to children" and jake's response being "yeah, well, shut up." is the most immature, broad, overlook to well researched criticism that I've ever heard.
I didn't realize how much he plays stupid. That's so nefarious.
Its really common in the subjects of all of Shane's youtube documentaries. The go to defense that Shane backs them up on in is "I'm too stupid scam people, if I fucked someone it was out of love!!!"
@@stevefox1200 yh, Tana was even worse
Sociopathic maybe?
The fact that Tana was even invited to the Steamys says a lot about how much UA-cam doesn't give a fuck on how their influencers treat their audience.
because sociopath
I hope Nerd City and Content Cop never get on each other's bad side.

Honestly, iDubbbz would get curbstomped if Nerd City saw iDubbbz as a bad channel.

Hi Keith ❗️
** 17:45
You know Shane never addressed the conflicting stories of Jake and Alissa. Neither of their stories add up. Someone is lying and doesn't call them out on it.
Bro you have no idea how much this opened my eyes. I just passed him off as a complete moron who got lucky because he fit a personality type that young kids are fond of and managed to make a quick buck. I figured he would fade away as he ran out of ideas, but I didn't realize how insidious and calculated he actually is. It is kinda scary.
You did that bc he’s an attractive, non-threatening looking white guy.
Tony Balony K.
@@tonybalony1811 I'm sure a lot of people DO overlook Jake Paul because he's white, but it's annoying when you assume everyone falls into that. It's also counterproductive. Maybe next time try for something like "I feel like Jake Paul gets overlooked so often because he's an average white guy". Theres no need to ascribe blame directly to someone, you know? I get what youre trying to say though, and you're probably not wrong. I'm just sure there are also a lot of people who ignore Jake Paul because they literally never cared enough to look into it.
@@tonybalony1811 lmafo Jake is attractive ?😂😂😂😂😂
@@tonybalony1811 attractive, really? im better looking than this guy. looks like a truck drove over his face. and thats with makeup on and after video editing. and he dyes his hair blonde.
Shane Dawson is way too passive to actually get results from this. Jake knew this doc would make him the victim and he lies relentlessly. Jake knows what he is doing and I am sad Shane played along.
Shane disappointed me epically
@Orbital Nexus Then he shouldn't characterize this doc as revealing or lucid.
I think Shane is just kinda dumb
CommunityServesUs couldn’t have said that better 👌
I can totally understand Shane's POV. I hate confrontation so I'd have trouble being aggressive and pushing Jake to address the allegations. I dont think shane was a good pick for the interview.
Wow. I do not mean this as a compliment, but Jake is way smarter than I thought. It's just that previously, I've always thought of him as a moron, because that's how he presents himself. But watching those business clips, it seems like he is, in fact, very intelligent and fully aware of the immoral thing he's doing, which, in my opinion, makes it way worse.
FinRanomness Yeah I watched this and I was like....did this bitch just say "conglomerate" and "equity" ?!
Same here. Thought he was a dumbass psychopath, but as he spoke eloquently and calmly about complex business topics I realised he's actually a great businessman who knows how to play dumb while he robs children. What a disgusting excuse for a human being.
It was really surprising; the way he faked being a total idiot in front of Shane, speaking like a high-schooler. And even though Shane's theory of Jake being a 'sociopath' seemed overly exaggerated and silly initially, I'm starting to think it might actually be true. I don't think anyone could be that oblivious or dumb, it's definitely something more sinister.
Actually you could totally be right about that. I contemplated on that being the case a little while ago, perhaps when he's expressing his emotions while conversing he just sounds like a child.
Perhaps that's his actual mentality.
But when it comes to business, he could just be intelligent and experienced. Now I wouldn't go as far as to say he's an intellectual in the business world, because if he talks like that in his day to day life he's far from it.
@@Kaiii-yuh
true.. i did not thinl thai i will say "jake is smart"
The fact that he's one of the richest youtubers out there truly leaves me hopeless for the future of humanity.
Eureka Mreum - unfortunately a lot of the richest people in the world got that way through scumbaggery. It’s unusual that we get to watch how one guy did it from start to finish.
@@nerdcity I do hope we get to see the finish of this narcissistic psycopath. At least this one and his creepy family.
Logically speaking, good people won't be rich (monetarily) because they are helping others. A CEO, for example, who is a good person would pay his employees a fair price for their work. A bad person CEO would pay employees less than they deserve, outsource jobs, and pay themselves a nice big bonus with all the extra money they save. This is why a good person can not become rich.
@@thehelpfulshadow919
I don't agree that good people *can't* become rich, just that its easier to become rich when you don't have all those troublesome principles and morals holding you back, especially since you can't count on everyone else to also have or keep to those principles.
@@Delta-es1lg It's kind of sad that just because bill gates is *slightly* more generous than every other rich CEO, he's the centre of so many conspiracy theories. But it's just more proof that we need proper egalitarian communism, not whatever the fuck the Chinese or North Koreans are doing.
That devil segment was savage. Straight facts. Super transparent. I hope Jake Paul watches this.
Ugh, you know he won't, though, because he has no reason to. There's no catching up to it. Besides that, as soon as he gets burnt out on an overdose or Eastern philosophy or something, a new attractive, charismatic, go-gettem yuppie is popping up in his place for corporations to reach down and grab the strings of.
@@youtubeisawebsite7484 we can send the vid 2 him

I'm gonna speedrun the Going Viral% on UA-cam
@just wait no or you just let them grow and realize how dumb they were at 8?
it won't sadly
only Shane's bullshit Jake propaganda is allowed to go viral
This whole doc was a farce. Shane beguiled his fans thinking this is a negative expose on JP but clandestinely tried to humanize him, without Shane properly investigating him or asking/pressing Jake about the egregious things he has done. What happened to the clip where Shane says "Im worried he's not going to know what this documentary is about?"
Thank you someone completely gets why I hate those videos by him.
I don't even know what the documentary was about. After 8 parts I sat back confused, when it ended I actually checked if it was a mistake or something. I literally can't find what the point of the series was, it lead to nothing.
CommunityServesUs exactly right. everything in this Nerd City video was fucking available to Shane. he either chose not to research, or did so and decided not call bullshit.
vocab on point!!!
The second that he got an actual face to face meeting with Jake (or Tana for that matter) should have been a massive red flag to fans that this would be a whitewash. "Brands" are EXTREMELY protective of their image and Jake didn't become rich by being stupid with his, he knew what image Shane wanted to paint and was ready for it
I came back to this video after a few weeks of living in the preview of new UA-cam that awaits for us in 2020.
And the sad thing is... UA-cam has gotten the consequences of Jake Paul's actions, but everyone except from him, is suffering from the punishment.
With the new COPPA regulations, a lot of videos that are not for childrens are being marked as such by the broken algorithm that UA-cam implemented. But the MAJORITY of Jake Pauls videos that are CLEARLY for childrens are left alone, showing, once again, youtube's favoritism for the Pauls. I just hope that they sue his ass in 2020 or all of this trouble will be for nothing.
>after Shane: huh he's actually a nice guy
>after nerd city: annndd we're back boyz.
The scene with the devil calling out Jake legit gave me chills
Jake Paul wannabe Commodus from Gladiator :D
The fact Jake even thought of squatting domains for Team 10 members, it just shows how switched on he actually is in this business. He's had millions of people on that he's a reckless idiot but there's a whole other side to him I don't think Shane quite discovered.
@@AMARVELGIRL no its because shane isnt a manipulative piece of crap
Shane didn't think of Jake like a businessman man
Luna Arli How is that manipulative?
It's because Shane is depressingly easily manipulated. Tana manipulated him openly in the TanaCon series, and Jake manipulated him in the new one.
Shane is afraid of negativity, he is afraid of any type of backlash... Look how he reacted mid-series when people stated their dislike. He is a push over. Nerd City did a great video and brought up points no-one considered before then Shane goes into his '8-part, easy money' series that had no substance, and here we are again with Nerd City showcasing the reality. I've liked Shane from the start but his 'doco-series' are just garbage. The only thing he has going for him is his access to these hot-topic people.
And so the devil predicted the future....
Mauricio Carranza - wouldn’t be the first time, won’t be the last

This was so therapeutic to watch. It pissed me off so much that he just shrugged off legitimate criticism as hate and played up " my family is messed up so I have an excuse for being shitty"... no dude you are 22 time to stop making excuses for your actions and start taking responsibility for them.
It's like people these days are proud to be shitty. The idea of living above inferior deeds, & being a decent person is beyond human comprehension.

nerd city has transcended content cop to become irl cop... put him away boyssss
Jake sucks. Go content c- I mean... nerd city!
It’s been ten months and Jake is still building his empire. This makes me so mad. I hope karma gets him good.
Sure he's living life on easy mode right now, but it can't last forever. His boyish good looks allow him to get away with his antics and still capture a young audience, but as he gets older kids won't want to watch him anymore and some other clown will take his place. He will also become less able to easily dodge responsibility for his shitty behavior. When at last he loses grip on his popularity, I doubt he'll have the self-awareness to realize that he never curated the skills needed to create content with lasting appeal. Then maybe he'll stage some desperate stunts to stay relevant before dropping in obscurity.
Until that point he will continue to be surrounded by fake people who leech on him for exposure and money while frittering away his fortune. Inevitably when the world moves on he has to contend with the fact that his entire career was in service to nobody but himself and all of his fake friends will vanish. Like many before him who become addicted to their fame his life may fall apart when the constant adoration turns into indifference. I wouldn't at all be surprised to see news headlines 5 years from now of "Former UA-cam star Jake Paul arrested and in rehab".
why? he works super duper hard to reach what he's reaching, and he's the best of the best in the industry.
Nobody else understand influencer marketing, brand building and general marketing practice as jake paul. He's an absolute genius and deserves every single cent he makes for the amount of work & intelligence he puts into every single decision in his work.
Karma doesn’t exist, the longer you cling to it the sadder you’ll feel. Bad people get good things, good people get bad things. C’est la vie
hiya! your dad is dumb
and if you don’t know why I’m saying this pls check the former video nerd city made about Fake Paul
@@hiya2793 Just because what he is doing did involve a whole lot of effort and is remarkably intelligent an well thought out doesn't mean that he deserves any of that money earned from it. The fact of the matter is that what he is doing is literally illegal, he chose his target demographic of young children, aged "8 -16" although being honest its probably averaged at lower than that and almost every video is over 50% advertisements. 50% is fucking absurd, literally 7 minutes from a 14 minute video is ad reads, that's over double what the law allows in terms of advertisements aimed towards young audiences.
He literally manipulates small children into buying his cheaply made, unoriginal shirts that he can't even be bothered to purchase original artwork for, instead just finding shitty clip-art from the internet and plastering on there as if he owns it, which is also against copyright laws as some if not all of the artwork is permitted only for personal use, not commercial; not to even mention that he gives no credit or compensation for using said art.
The man is blatantly scamming small children left right and centre to earn his fortune, and you believe it's all well earned money that he deserves, what a joke. Imagine somebody spent 5 years planning a bank heist, something that takes countless hours of work, and a hell of a lot of intelligence, do they deserve the money that they illegally took from other people? Yeah, not really, as impressive as it may be. (I understand this analogy is not perfectly applicable but the basic principal is close enough).
At the end of the day, Jake whole 'business model' is preying on young audiences in order to shill his own bullshit for an enormous profit, with no thought or care for anybody or anything other than his own bank balance, absolute scum.
I appreciate the 5 people that will read this through, for those who, understandably, can't be bothered:
TL;DR - Jake Paul big brain, Jake Paul bad, Jake Paul target small bois with many ads (very no good), Jake Paul make bad shirts with clip-art and no credit given (also no good), Jake Paul is an asshole.
Have a nice day all. xx
Jake Paul's response: uhh.. this is also ridiculous
Jake Paul: Like like... like like like idk... like like like

What bothers me is that Shane is still "friends" with Jake, even tho he said he would drop Jake's ass if he lied.
True
Kane S yeahh that's the thing, Shane doesn't know when somebody's lying, especially not a manipulator like Jake
Is he tho? He said in an interview after the series that he “doesn’t think jake Paul is a good person “ and that he’s “done with the Paul’s bs”. Then again idk for sure 🤷🏻♀️
Chloe Kemp he said on twitter to Jake that they were family
carolina stop acting like Shane is this innocent snowflake when he is an adult who knows the world, has access to internet, knows what people talk and probably spread biased sugarcoated half truths on purpose. Accept it: either Shane is the most gullible and blind person in the world for not knowing any of this stuff about Jake, or he lies about actually working hard when it comes research for his videos. Both of them can't be true at the same time
People go to Shane to get publicly redeemed. That's the only reason they agree to be on his channel.
Yup. I look at it as a way for Jake to continue to manipulate and sell his dumb crap to kids. :/
Ideed. I bet both knew that and that's a huge part of their agreement.
Both just wanted views and money, they don't fucking care bout their fans.
Yea because it’s pretty easy to manipulate Shane lol
he saw the views coming from the shanes previous doc series and how it kinda help graveyardgirl but he was just there for the redemption tbh
muddacrazy It's always been the case that media can completely switch perceptions of bad people. UA-cam is just the newest form of media, and as much as I love Shane, he's quickly becoming a bit of a propaganda machine.

Quite Kwite, we didn’t ask for you opinion here.
Why is everyone being so over protective of shane? I get that he does not have ill intentions but he is an adult and has shown to make more rational decisions as compared to jake paul. So shane does know what he is putting out and how he wanted to portray jake paul which was to make us feel bad for him by dismissing the manipulating children to buy merch as well as other sob stories. Therefore, shane dawson is actually part of the problem here.
He's an original, older part of the problem which has stayed the same youtubers are amateurs there is nothing wrong with that but they make pretty disposable work but due to the nature of it make insane money which gives them more reach. But notice it's so rare for any of them to manage to stay relevant professionally or produce quality work. Shane made a shitty movie so he scrapped getting better and went back to vlogs, the Pauls are at least honest about how they get disposability and advertising
Emily Greene Thank you!!!!!!
Emily Greene Shane doesn’t want to be the bad guy to anyone, I think the juicy(but not so subtle) secret is that Shane can’t deal with confrontation.
TheHollowJester very true
The fact that Shane didn't even really press Jake at all about "the bad things he did" to Alissa, namely sleeping with other girls constantly while throwing a fit if she so much as flirted with a guy besides him, really made Shane look awful honestly. He was far more sympathetic to Jake than Alissa.
this is exactly what ive been saying! i was so frustrated by everyone in shanes comments going "aww poor Jake :'(" as if a messed up family justifies anything.
Right? I'm so sick people people trying to use their bad childhood as an excuse for their current behavior. Oh BOOHOO! You had a bad childhood? Well join the millions of other people who had a bad childhood too. I had a bad childhood and would NEVER use that as an excuse for anything that I do now.

I lost total respect for Shane after that series. I feel he’s just become a PR guy for influencers with bad reputations doing damage control. He literally has taken 3 very controversial UA-cam stars and totally attempted to change public perception of them. He cherry picks what he shows and asks, leaves tons of important stuff out, and let’s Jake act like a dumb kid who isn’t one of the biggest social media influencers out there. He has gone extremely soft on everyone intentionally. He was likely being paid by all of them to rewrite their negative public narratives
PREACH! I completely agree
🛎🛎🛎
I completely agree. Lets just make it clear, Shane MILKS such content very much and really well. Building the hype over it for days and maybe weeks. Make a series of 40+ minutes per video. So every video gets millions of views. This is the absolute heaven for content creators to make money and for someone like Shane who knows what YT algorithm wants to even promote it more (so many views in a short time and a long video = very long watch time). And at the same time, the influencer, like Jake here, benefit from the soft tone and questions of Shane.

The "Wokness" Term... It Just Sadly Fosters This Awfully Cancerous All Self Rightious, Know-It-All, Elitist, "God" Superiority Complex Mentality That I Really Don't Like!
Now That's Just My 2 Cents!
The fact that you ever had any to begin with condemns you.
This channel is so underrated. The amount of research and editing is insane. Your videos are fantastic and I can't wait for you to have millions of subscribers. Love this response. The whole segment in that interview made me cringe. He knows exactly what he's doing.
Agreed
I keep saying where is nerd city’s 17m?
This channel is not really underrated though
People don't want that no more. They want shit youtuber that click bait and take advantage of youtube algorithm
You know nerd City should leave Logan and Jake alone because all they are is over growin toddlers focus on the UA-camr Eugenia Cooney who is exploiting anorexia causing little girls to follow in her footsteps and kill themselves stop trying to spank the two over growing toddlers and get the insane bitch put in a mental Asylum
I love Shane and all but let’s face it: he’s not a good interviewer. He’s just much too empathetic and easily swayed; it really holds his documentaries back.
Also he gave Jake like all of the answers to his questions and Jake just sat there and agreed with what was being said. I'm not a fan of the series.
No what Shane did was make an entertaining piece, where he pretended to care, when you do that, the subject tends to let their guard down. Watch Louis Theroux's work to watch the original master at work. Shanes acting was over the top, it was never meant to be deep, but tongue in cheek.
The problem was Shane saying Jake didn't know right from wrong with his aggresive advertising to children 24/7 , he clearly did, the proof is in everything he touches, for Shane not to research that and shove it back in Jake's face is poor journalism period.
@@oldboy2399 I LOVE Shane, but i agree.
He should have done more research and it bothers me so much he's buddies with Jake now.
I've always said he was too gullible due to his extreme empathy, I just never knew it was this bad.
Yeah
15:00 The devil just predicted COPPA... Maybe atheism isnt where its at..
Checkmate, atheists
@@nerdcity hi
@@SamN234 LOL
When 17 minutes has more information than all those hours that Shane did
Oof
Roys RmTV exactly why I didn't watch Shane's videos, only nerdcity and Pewdiepie.
To be fair, Shane's series covered way more than two segments talked about here.
1. Manipulation/monetization
2. The dad's sex tape
@@LordCylarne don't get me wrong Shane series was entertaining to watch but there was a lot of things that weren't cover
The series Shane made, felt like a telenovela (soap opera) they dragged redundant information for weeeks... in weeks!!! Shane did the same thing! 8 videos was too much.
The Paul brothers: makes m rated content for children
UA-cam: this is fine
Anyone else: swears
UA-cam: shut it down
When Jake was saying he doesnt think kids would say "hey mom, I need this to be cool, buy it for me" I knew right then and there he was either stupid or lying lol. Thats exactly how kids think most of the time!
Definitely... He was playing dumb
I was never like that, nor did I have friends that were. Must be a generational thing? Idk.
Lorromire well that’s why I said most, not all. I was never like that as a kid, but my sister for sure was. She always wanted what everyone else had and what was “cool”. I knew a few people like that. It’s how general marketing to kids works
Agreed, trends and fads have always been a thing
SAMEEEE
Jake: I wanna see the bed I was made on!
Bed of lies: well here I am
😂😂😂😂
I wish everyone who watches Shanes series would see this. It really bothers me that he shows some emotion and vulnerability and people are suddenly ok with him.
I watched it and I still dont like him. I also don't like how Erika is all over his butt, she knows he does wrong
Yeah the editing was very manipulative but I guess thats tge idea cause its supposed to be "making a murderer" esqe
steph yep!
I watched both and I think because of how nice Shane is it makes Jake seem not that bad but when Nerd comes around and there’s no Shane to save Jake it really snaps me back to reality that Jake is a dick always has been a dick and always will be a dick
I've watched all eight parts of Shane's series and I still hate Jake and Erika. I smelled bullshit from the beginning he opened his mouth in the series. I also don't like how Erika is seen as some kind of a saint and kisses Jake's ass. She is just as bad as Jake. But sadly some people are buying into their bullshit.I'm glad Nerd City dragged his ass with this video.
Nerd City can take advantage of my subscription timeline anytime..
I don't see why people think Shane is a reliable narrator. He gets emotionally invested in his subjects and immediately aligns himself to them. Even the way he asks the "hard" questions is like it physically pains him to do so and he trips over himself to explain "I'm not against you or anything I don't mean this in a bad way omgomgomg" get some dignity, dude.
He even takes any blame Jake could've gotten by saying he doesn't know right from wrong. Pretty sure you're not a licensed psychologist, Shane, and I'm pretty sure the quack you brought on isn't either.
Basically, he goes in with biases and his loyal fans follow. How is this not harmful?
I'm just so over everything
I agree sosososososososoososos much!
You can not be so invested like Shane is and then produce an un-biased documentary. I honestly think that Shane had to get everything approved by Jake and whatever management he has and he had to skip on some things. You can not be titled the 'best' investigative channel and miss SO MANY shady things Jake has done. Even if Shane brought up SOME, he immediately starts excusing Jake and his actions by sayig 'But I don't think you are the bad guy. I think you're missunderstood' etc. Like let him speak on his own. Answering for whoever you are interviewing is pushing a nerrative. Stop. Shane is a good person and a decent youtuber but he is overrated when it comes to these documentaries.
Yeah, same. I was wondering too especially after the Tana vids he did. When I heard he was doing the Jake Paul doc, I went "He is going to play the positive role in this" and look where we are now. Now Nerd City have to bring Jake down, again, as well as Shane. I know I am a center person, but even I know when someone is clearly in the wrong and have to side on it.
Yoo Youngbae FACTS
It's not because he's "invested", he's using these scumbags to boost his own popularity. He's every bit the sociopath as the people he does videos on are. I wish people could see through his bullshit, but that's sociopaths for you.
Agreed. We need someone way tougher. This was a chance to really get inside the (possible) brain of Jake Paul and in the end it was just fluff.
Nerd City’s videos makes me feel so comfortable. Your videos have a very homely feel.
Inexplicably yh
holy shit the Devil is verbally taking apart Jake Paul in the most incredible way. I don't think even Idubbbz will ever be able to top this.
Maybe thats whyhe hasnt. He appreciates Nerd City
@@weasel7491 they should have an arms race of who can make the best weaponized criticism so that they both learn how to make even better stuff faster
Yeah that does sound about right.
Idubbbz relies on crude humor and insults while Nerd City does the research and takes time to put together an almost inarguable dissertation. Both are entertaining as fuck though, but comparing them isn't fair to either party.
@@cadymitchell8462 idubbbz only relied on crude humor and insults in one video and that was to show that anyone can do what leafy did
I can't be the only one who felt like this series was a dumpster fire?! No hate to Shane, I adored all his other series, but someone being a nice person shouldn't mean we don't give them honest feedback that can help them further their careers. This series was a mess. The episodes were all over the place, partially because he had to change course halfway in because the sociopath angle got so much backlash (and it was indeed a terrible idea to begin with) and the later episodes gave no clarity or real insight and just created more questions. I just ended up disliking everyone he interviewed. I already realized they were human beings. What else is new.
omg i hated it sm. and it wasn't even bc of jake. it was all the ppl commenting "TEAAAAAA SIS" when we all fucking knew all this information before we watched the series. shane just did a recap on jake's social and personal life that is known on the internet. literally nothing new emerged. wtf
I edited my comment so all the replies don't make sense.
Henry Hunch Was If anyone else even watches this, NerdCity is majorly underrated and under appreciated by the masses
It's sad though because Shane has a much bigger platform than Nerd City. If Shane showed the points Nerd City made in this video, it would reach a bigger audience and hopefully stop some kids from being manipulated.
Yes, now I feel dum for shane fooling me into feeling a little bad for jake Paul.
Perfectly balanced. As all things should be.
In just 17 minutes as opposed to several hours
at 16:18 the snapping is synched with the devil on the monitor. Your videos are incredibly detailed my god man
"The Mind of Nerd City" when?
You're the guy who re-uploads thatistheplan vids right? Bless your soul.
For ppl that don't know him to say who?
@@HavikBG504 What?
Midnight.
@@Alejandro-ts8wi ur saying the mind of nerdcity. My response was ppl who don't know nerdcity will be saying who is that guy...don't think Shane will focus on someone if it won't benefit he's channel. What was hard to get that short version of what I said
I hope Shane actually talks about what Nerd City mentioned in this video, instead of again giving him a bunch of free passes
Roxi Potzi Ik so tired of Shane babying him
He won't. Shane will always jump to the defense of horrible people.
Anastasia Bananastasia and people babying Shane
thestrokes95 agree totally
This shit is stupid, if jake wants to sell merch he is allowed to sell merch, he’s been selling merch since he was like12 and now he’s really good at it. This shit comes across as jealous hate in my opinion. I’m not a jake pauler, I’ve never watched his vlogs and his songs are garbage but if he wants to base a lot of content around his merch and it leads to a ton of merch sales then good for him, everyone needs clothes, even kids.
Watching Jake so ELOQUENTLY explain precisely what he just denied to Shane is EMBARRASSING.
I hope Shane get's a commission for these videos, because the cost is gonna come later.
Not a Jake Pauler at all, but I could see where his mind would separate advertising and manipulation for children (even if the law doesn't separate the two for TV and movies). It's possible he doesn't see why it's so bad to advertise that way to kids vs doing so for adults. Whether it's a lack of empathy, perspective, intelligence, or whatever. He could just see advertising as advertising. "I'm just trying to sell shit to make money, not hypnotizing kids and shit like you're inferring when you say the word manipulating!"
He could also just be lying and bullshitting. That's very possible as well.
@@darkriku12 Advertisement is manipulation. Its about incentivizing and convincing the viewer to indulge in whats being shown. Manipulating people is a core aspect of advertisement. So if your target demograph is children, and you're advertising to children.. you're trying to manipulate children. Thats why regulations on child advertisement is so much more serious and strict than it is for adults.
He definitely knows the difference, as just like this video has shown, he has a strong understanding of how this all works and who his target audience is. Thats part of the reason he's so successful at it; its not dumb luck
@@bloodydove5718 it's also ILLEGAL to even advertise to directly to children in some countries, countries I'm sure where kids watch Jake Paul.
Would be interesting to how that plays out if anyone bothers to check him on it.
@@Barbiegaitprop yea, being a brand on a platform with international reach, that makes things real complicated. Is not like how various countries and even states can threaten EA because of their gambling schemes; different countries cant be like "Jake Paul videos arent allowed on youtube here". So if they wanted to challenge him on that, i wonder how that would transpire
"What is team 10?"
"Oh, that is SUPER confusing."
Narrorator defines it in less than a single minute.
Jake Paul learned from the best... Disney.
Oh yeah ,u got that one fully right
@@greenIMONSTER008 It reminds me of the Ajit Pai video that Nerd City did a while ago. He mentioned how big companies send their lobbyists to take up jobs in Congress (FCC) and change laws to give the companies an advantage. Afterward, Ajit goes back to Verizon and collects a huge bonus after leaving the FCC in ruins. It seems like Disney is doing something similar with the Paul bros. Disney trained them, sent them out to Vine and YT. And now the Paul Bros are making deals with Disney and other companies to become "influencers" to kids for those companies. Ugh.
@@DustinMeyerPhotography Fun fact -- big reason why the copyright laws are total crap is that Disney has specifically pushing Congress to change the laws over and over for DECADES
@Dustin Meyer I thought Disney fired them due to their public perception
Lego boi 3000 Yeah they were on Vine and UA-cam long before Disney and then Disney fired them over the backlash they were getting, it was causing a lot of negative publicity for Disney.
Why is this video not viral yet. It makes me sick to think that millions of people watched Shane's videos and only a fraction actually learn the truth.
I'm almost a bit upset at the hubris of Shane to think he's some kind of "documentation". He doesn't challenge Logan at all. Doesn't ask the right questions, doesn't get the right expert analysis, just isn't critical of his subject at all. it's less than amateur hour and he's passing it off as professional.
It would't change a thing tho,almost every one who watched the video is thinking that Jake is the poor guy even going to the channel of the Martinez to say how they where "lying"
@@courtneyjohnsonhaber4591 for real tho
These 17 mins were better researched and more informative than shane Dawson’s 8 video “docuseries”
13:39 "blaming your dad for your problems" this devil character is amazing
I love that reference. There sure is some biblical allusions there with Satan getting pissed at his dad.
So glad to hear a mature and adult opinion about those awful Shane videos. As someone with a fresh, unbiased view of both characters (I didn’t know who Shane OR Jake & co were before I started viewing the series, I got roped into watching the series because of DeFranco...hm) I could feel Shane was kinda fake with the excessive overreacting to simple, normal things that most adults encounter in life, but most importantly: I felt he was willingly playing Jake’s sociopathic game, especially considering they both made a killing in views and awarene$$ from this whole series.
I was pretty dissatisfied with the first 5-6 episodes.
Something I realized the other day is Shane may feel obligated to put some suspense and conspiracy into his video moving forward since he built a large part of his subscriber base out of people drawn in by that.
I don't think Shane realizes the importance these series have. It might not have been important to prepare better and do research with the Jefree Star one, but Tana's and Jake's should have been done better. Jake's series lacked structure from the start, it was done too much to entertain, and it wasn't taken with all the seriousness it should. I think in the future he will regret not doing a better job.
@Tommy Ledwidge I didn't say he will regret the fame or money he will get from it, I said he will regret not doing a better job and putting quantity over quality. And I just think that because I feel like Shane is an overall good guy that cares about what he produces. Idk, I might be reading too much into it, he also made many crappy videos about testing food for years.
@@rachelsanchis I think people expect things to go a certain way because they don't realize 1) the work involved 2) the way life works....
(that's a big one because I hear clients not understand how the real world works all the time)
He is not there to bash or yell at them...it would mean less content of that type....which, I and I'm sure you wouldn't want because then you would have nothing to criticize.
He managed to get Jake Paul on his channel and speak directly addressing the issues. He wasn't going to be able to do this if he was incredibly critical the entire time. Logan Paul doesn't even want to take the risk because Logan just allowed people like NerdCity to be able to call him out the more he speaks.
@@jonathandpg6115 Personally I would prefer a more critical look and more research. The series was messy from the start, because he started filming, editing and uploading, without knowing how it would end, or even knowing what the whole thing was about. It's nice he filmed from the start, because then you see the process, but once he had everything filmed, he should have re-structure everything and edit everything before uploading.. so that it would have make more sense from a storytelling point of view.
Idk, I just think he missed the opportunity to make a more compelling story with all the footage he had and the attention he is getting. If you compare it to Jefree's series, Jake's wasn't as planned out, the 3 first episodes are a mess in my opinion, you can't layout the whole sociopathy foundation and then forget about it. That is not good storytelling..
@@squeakydeedsdonesoapclean3719 Never said he had to be incredible critical. But he didn't do proper research, one thing is going into an interview with an open mind, trying to not be too judgemental in order to get someone's opinion without them feeling attacked , and another is 100% believing everything they tell you, without knowing when to call out bs.
Nerd city did that, he did the research shane didn't do, and was able to easily find many videos were Jake seems to know a lot about how to market content to children.. Meanwhile in shane's video he was acting all dumb and innocent. And Shane apparently bought it, because he felt the need to explain to Jake why what he does is wrong..
After watching this, I definitely think Jake was playing "dumb" with Shane...amazing!
Oh yeah, I agree.
Nah hes just dumb period
@@galjoenboer4961 If you saw the video you must have noticed that he definetly isn't dumb. Justa malicous child manipulating douchebag that exactly knows what he is doing
why does is this lowkey structured like a trump tweet
@@arlenbales453 probs depends on your definition of dumb but his IQ is definitely
When Jake Paul speaks you can hear the hollowness of his skull. You can hear the echo.
He is pretty smart tho. In this video NC proves he is playing dumb.
