Early Tuesday morning, YouTube introduced that it had “suspended monetization” from Russell’s channels because of its “Creator Duty coverage.” The video sharing website wrote in an announcement, “If a creator’s off-platform habits harms our customers, workers or ecosystem, we take motion to guard the group,” firmly including:
“This choice applies to all channels that could be owned or operated by Russell Model.”
Russell, after all, has a number of YouTube channels the place he’s extra just lately come to spout right-wing, conspiracy theorist, anti-vaxx jargon.
However YouTube isn’t the one platform taking motion…
On Tuesday, the BBC introduced they’re eradicating a few of the Forgetting Sarah Marshall star’s content material from their platform because it now “falls beneath public expectations.” They wrote in an announcement:
“The BBC doesn’t ban or take away content material when it’s a matter of public file except we now have justification for doing so. There may be restricted content material that includes Russell Model on iPlayer and Sounds. We’ve reviewed that content material and made a thought-about choice to take away a few of it, having assessed that it now falls beneath public expectations.”

The outlet famous that as of now, an episode of comedy quiz present QI and a Joe Wicks podcast, which each characteristic Russell, have been eliminated. It’s unclear what else might be, or what makes these particular — possibly he made some sort of off-color jokes? It wouldn’t be the primary time.
