Hey can you make a video on Charles X of France and the July revolution
Please do Booker T. Washington next 👍🏾
Buy a Nord sub and he'll think about it.

Hey, that whole pull-it-sir thing could gone WAY worse.
I'm not going to lie, that's automatically where my mind went until Simon mentioned his nose 😂 im 39 yet still sometimes think like a schoolkid it seems haha
I don't get that
Yeah, that was not where I thought that was going.

Along the lines of journalism, may I please suggest a video about television newsman Walter Cronkite, aka "Uncle Walter". During his time on the air he was known as "the most trusted man in America."
He was a POS liberal. No journalist can be trusted, ever.
It's not ads tailored to my search history that bothers me Simon, its ads tailored to my private thoughts that keeps me up at night

For some reason people keep posting Michael Jackson as a "god,icon" that needs to be reviewed....he was a nothing more than a pedophile that made music..
No need to review him.... And if so then I guess after him they could do Harvey Weinstein??
Yeah Babe Ruth is by far and away the last one of these I'd like to see made. Nobody cares about him besides Americans.
100% agree, love this list. Thank you so much.
I’m pretty sure he often says don’t bother posting lists, just post one suggestion at a time because then he doesn’t know which ones the most people want. 🤷♀️
It’s always my favorite time of day when your videos post…story time.
I love your pace and how packed with info your videos are. So well done! Thanks!
I don't remember if you've done one already but I assume William Randolph Hearst would be on the list for a show. When discussing yellow journalism you really can't do it without talking about Pulitzer and Hearst
He covered citizen Caine I know but I don’t know if he has a video on Hearst
Yeah I kind of think of them as the same person almost.
Yes, he has. It’s excellent. Look it up.
Or you could read a book.
@@garryharris3777 having a bad day?
Great biographics this week. I take it this will lead to a William Randolph Hearst biographics soon 😃🤞
Both Pulitzer and hurst were the inspiration for the movie Citizen Kane(1941).
THANK YOU SO MUCH it will be very useful for my presentation and, as a non English native speaker, I understood everything. Great talker!!
Are we all ignoring the fact that Simon said "freedom units" when talking about measurements in the first part of the video?? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I think it's weird they're called "freedom units" when they're originating from the British Empire 😆
For the all talk of the US wanting to separate themselves from the UK during the American revolution they sure loved the British government's system of weights and measures
obligatory plug: go watch Newsies the musical, it's an absolute bop
(it's about the 1899 newsboy strike, and there is a full recorded version from 2017)
Thank you for adding freedom units.
That's like the missing piece for me. Pulitzer, Vidal, Buckley. The architects of why no one believes the news and we all act like screaming toddlers when being political.
Hearst, Murdoch, and David Pecker also have had a role to play in this, perhaps more than Vidal and Buckley, who at least both had some intellectual grounding in their perspectives.
Roger Ailes and Rupert Murdoch.
I'm not sure what Vidal and Buckley have to do with it. As far as I know they never claimed to be impartial "news" reporters.
If Pulitzer and Hearst hadn't done it, someone else would have. It's ultimately driven by economics and a highly contentious political scene. At that time newspapers were having to compete to survive against relatively high numbers of competitors in each city. Eventually through consolidation things got less competitive and better ethics returned. This time around it's the competition from the internet coinciding with a reoccurrence of highly party-aligned staffs.
@@PrezVeto Their slap-fight toddler antics were unique for television at the time. Now, anything except those kinds of antics are forcibly silenced. Vidal talks like every campus lefty, and Buckley sounds like Hillary.
Can you please do one on Rocky Marciano? Thank you for the great content!!!
Could you do a video on the Soviet cosmonaut Vladimir Komarov. Just read a little bit about the end of his life today and it sounds fascinating. Would love to know more!
Simon , thanks , interesting content 👍🎸🎼
"Oh no! Not the Post!" The Gambling Bug.
Thanks.
Thanks
They should do a movie about him like they did about Hearst!
I had no idea he got his start in St louis. Im sharing !!
I'm so scared of WW3 but Simon's beard calms me down
The worst thing about WW3 is to live through it.
WW3 is a hard thing to do. Both sides have to make the same mistakes twice. We have safeguards in place to prevent that from happening which is why world leaders have a direct line of communication to each other.
@@RazgrizWing that makes me feel better
Would love one on rod Serling
Could we maybe get a biographics about Lou Gehrig?
Thank you for translating to “freedom units” lol. Working in fashion and internationally, I’ve been crippled for life, thanks American School System 😂😂😂
He founded my home town paper, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch
The way you told it, did pulitzer actually feel bad about the horrible yellow journalism and change or was he just smart enough go change public perception of him before he died? Feels like the latter to me, since he only changed tactics when hearst was outgoing him at his own game.
3:44 FREEDOM UNITS HAHAHA
I’m quite surprised you guys haven’t done a biographical on milunka savic
Ah. Nothing like a good tabloid!
He enlarged his fortune through the printed word. Frankly he produced nothing but Gossip and Libel. How he can be compared to railroad, steel, retail distribution, and oil giants who left behind an industrial base and real wealth escapes me.
I am from S. Louis. I have no fondness for this man. As newspapers go, the Globe- Democrat was a far better paper.
Hearst was hell and St. Louis is still hella segregated
Should cover the wild Pultizer Hearst newspaper wars.
“A cynical, mercenary, demagogic press will in time produce a people as base as itself.”
Joseph Pulitzer
@@TRC2002 Well that is your opinion I posted this quote not to change anything but for others to share their opinions about it
Wrong messenger.
shocked at the exactly 0 newsies refferences
Should do the story of Giovanni agnelli
Pulitzer crawled so TMZ could fly.
You know this guy is turning in his grave after what journalist are doing to journalism. They should call it the propaganda award.
Can you make a video about Dietrich Eckart: hitler’s mentor
With a zeal that can only be considered "woke" or PC, you not only rapidly flew over the fact that he was a Hungarian/Moldavian Jew, but that he joined the Episcopal church after marrying his wife, deceiving her into assuming he was a Christian. He then entered the Christian high society of that era. The penultimate manipulator.
Suggestion: Augusto Sandino of Nicaragua! I feel he was an incredibly influential figure in Latin America and would make an incredibly interesting Biographics video!
Could you do a segment on G.K. Chesterton?
Wow, so much hate for Pulitzer :( It's easy to blame a man but the truth is, people like drama and sensationalism. If nobody was reading that stuff, he wouldn't become who he has. He simply satisfied what people wanted - exactly what marketing does and nobody has any problem with that. I remember always liking Pulitzer for so many reasons (a few mentioned even in this video and yet people are deaf to the good he did). He deserves some credit because quite frankly 99% of his critics will never go through what he did and come out a winner despite. Instead, his haters are having a nervous breakdown when their wi-fi is down for 10 seconds...
I still blame him he set the standard for the horrible trends of media in his life
But at the same time I do admit I admire his self-made resilient nature and can do attitude,
it takes guts to come to a brand-new county not even speaking the language and having barely any money and yet still making a living is very impressive, there's a reason why so many people still do it even today when they immigrate to the US
Especially back then when the very idea of government safety nets and social security were not even a thing
WHAT!! a silk handkerchief could buy food and a damn ticket?
you should do a video on king hussein of jordan
Well done Mr. Whistler.
This is just a paraphrased version of Pulitzer and His World by James Wyman Barrett. Please cite your sources.
Hi. Could you do a podcast on Mary Anning, the English palaeontologist please?
Do one on Hearst
Freedom units, nice...
Make a video about Ragnar Lodbrok and his sons
"Culminated in a fight where Pulitzer pulled out a gun and shot Augustine twice." Ah yes, a true American.
Correction Simon: Pulitzer's mother was also Jewish, not only his father. However, contrary conventional historical legend has maintained otherwise.
When Casual Criminalist runs into a Biographics video & you wonder when this impressive bloke is going to murder someone 🤣
A biography of William Randolph Hearst was proposed for a Pulitzer Prize who found the subject of the book was unworthy!
No newsies strike?
Interesting biography
The Pulitzer Prize just lost all respect for me. A better title may be, 'The Founder of Gutter Journalism and Paparazzi'.
"Freedom Units" 🤣😂
I use a Brave browser. No ads.
A biographic on Khalid Ibn al Walid would be good
Splort:: The exhilarating life of a notary public!
UA-cam's lifeblood is yellow journalism - I actually subbed to some of the documentary sites because I got sick of it.
MAKE ONE ABOUT SUSAN SONTAG
Pull it again sir
Yellow journalism is alive and well in the 21st Century. It just went digital. 😎👍
And to think the award for best journalistic works is named after Pulitzer...it's either a satire or an irony.
Read Spanish newspapers.
@@taskdon769 fitting.
Fkn Freedom Units!! 😂 Simon 😎
Maybe Horace Greeley could be a cool one
Too bad it doesn't mean anything anymore
CNN is modern yellow journalism
I think if the government tracked the websites I visited they be concerned about the amount of time I spend on youtube watching your videos
We'd be on the same list there, then.
I am starting a 12 step program. Simon Anonymous.
@@naftalibendavid I don't have a problem!
@@saeveth Good point, but you know what they say about denial.
@@naftalibendavid Best served cold! Or something.
And then he does 😳
Cinnamon is for elves.
Wish competence, knowledge, and common sense were of value today.
It's never been of value as this video shows
William Randolph Hearst next?
Thanks Simon, I now know wtf Freedom Units are!😁
Yellow? What happens to hello when yellow is too mellow? Not much huh.
Emilie Floge, please!
Despite his efforts, journalism is still as corrupt and one-sided as ever...
I wouldn't say it is one sided, but it is definitely corrupt
It’s yellowed even more
Once it becomes corporate it's never gonna not be corrupt. Small independent news outlets exist the one the main stream label "alt right extremist" with no valid evidence.
the man looked like you!
White , beard , glasses. That's about it
I’m wondering if you all would ever be willing to do one on Governor George Wallace? I think his trip from moderate to the face of segregation, his presidential campaign and assassination attempt, all the way back to moderate is an interesting story. Just how chasing the vote and populism can change someone for the worse.
Pretty sure he's done wallace
So was he the FOXnews or the CNN of his day?
The most interesting man on the planet (world) is the dos x man. Cheers.
Nellie Bly was awesome.
Val Lewton. I promise it will be interesting.
You resemble him
Ceausescu when?
Now for Pulitzer's exact opposite personality wise needs to be covered, William Randolph Hearst
Broadhead and slayback haha
Tmes I've been on the internet and saw creepy (or any other) ads: 0 in the last 10 years, Adblock works wonders. Only thing I need a VPN for is so I can torrent copyrighted crap in peace without my ISP bitching (they really should mention that in the ads, it's really the main VPN's exist at all), and for that PIA is cheaper than Nord since they don't buy 100's of overpriced YT sponsorships.
Freedom units 😂😂😂
yellow journalism was prevalent long time ago. E.g., Bible
The OG Clout chaser
Is there really any hope for humanity?
Make a video about Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the last Shah of Iran.
What a shock to hear a journalist was a liar
Even more shocking, an Ex-President of the U.S. pushing election fraud lie which he pushed into an insurrection to overthrow his election loss and still keeps pushing the lie to this day! Your distrust of journalists is the least of your problems.
Proof that media have always been 🗑.
Future Video suggestion -
Eamon DeValera (1882-1975) - prominent political leader in 20th century Ireland who, after the Irish war of independence from 1919 to 1921, was in the public eye for over forty years from 1922 until his death were he served as head of government (Taoiseach) and head of state (president). He was nearly executed in the Easter Rising in 1916 and was key in putting into place the new constitution on 1937. A very prominent figure in Irish history.
Good suggestion!
