- Russell Brand’s book publishers pulled his titles after his conviction on a rape charge on Thursday.
- YouTube and other streaming services seemed less certain about how to handle old content featuring Russell Brand, in contrast to publishers that pulled his titles.
Why it matters: The material divide is between Russell Brand’s book publishers, which pulled his titles after Thursday’s conviction, and YouTube, which appears less certain about old material featuring him. The titles were therefore removed while the treatment of existing streaming content remains unresolved.
