Backing Brand
ALT video platform Rumble has shown support for Russell Brand after he used the site to share "conspiracy theories" with millions of followers. The site, which was founded in 2013 as an alternative for independent creators, has become a popular platform for creators like Brand who feel ignored on mainstream platforms.Accusations and Denials
Four women have accused Brand of rape and sexual assault between 2006 and 2013. These allegations have been denied by Brand, who has been posting daily episodes of his Stay Free program on Rumble since signing a deal with the site a year ago.Financial Backer
Dan Bongino, a former Fox News presenter and one of the largest financial backers of Rumble, has encouraged viewers to watch Brand's videos on the platform. Bongino believes that Rumble provides a space for independent creators like Brand.Implications for Brand
Brand's business empire is facing challenges amid these allegations. He and his wife have struck off their joint company and closed off their pub. Furthermore, Brand has been terminated as a director of a movie company and resigned from another.YouTube Suspension
YouTube has suspended the monetization of Brand's channel for violating their Creator Responsibility policy. This means that Brand's channel can no longer make money through YouTube's advertising program. The decision was made due to "serious allegations against the creator."Financial Impact
Brand's YouTube channel could have been making a decent sum of money through monetization, estimated to be around £2,000 to £4,000 per video. If Brand were to regularly upload five videos a week, he could be making around £1 million a year from YouTube alone.Support on Rumble
Despite the challenges he is facing, Brand's popularity on Rumble continues to grow. His content, which includes rants about Covid lockdowns, vaccines, central bank digital currencies, and the Ukraine war, has propelled him to the site's fifth most popular contributor.
