Sinead O'Connor hasn't even be dead for 24 hours and this shitty Youtube is already after slapping together a video to milk her death and her son's deaths for YouTube views.

    Is this much different that the piles of prewritten obituaries news outlets have for pretty much every person they would report dying?

      I was thinking much the same. It’s shitty, but nothing new

    Unironically, it looks like today is your first day on YT, OP.

    This BS happens on YT all the time unfortunately.

    The news also make stories right away, so what matters is whether it’s good and thoughtful, not if it is very soon after the death. But I doubt these are either of those things.

    Thanks for providing them with free publicity!

      They have a few million subs. Do you honestly think me having their name displayed makes any difference? I want to highlight this issue without having to dance around it by not naming names.

    And the sad thing is, it happens on YT all the time when someone dies

      What do you expect. You can just read a few news articles, summarize what you’ve read in a few hundred words in a Microsoft word document, type their name into YouTube so you can find footage to edit into your video. All this can probably be done within a couple of hours of the news of Sinead O’connor’s death breaking. Easy to make and guaranteed views.

        ChatGPT, what’s going on with Sinead O’Connor’s son?

      I hear they’re still trying to get Doctor Jones to wake up now.

    Bitch was crazy and had lost custody of two of her children on two different occasions. Wonder what her other children thought after she said she saw no point in living after one of her sons (that she no longer had custody of) killed himself.

    She always seemed like a complete nightmare person. I wish professional help had worked. Maybe then she wouldn’t have been a disastrous wreck all the time.

    I have a feeling that top video is also just plagiarising Todd’s video on the topic.

      Here is an alternative Piped link(s): piped.video/watch?v=cqE9B1_9TpQ

      Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

      I’m open-source, check me out at GitHub.

    It’s YouTube. What do you expect? It’s the most popular video platform that everyone seems to despise.

    Which make’s absolutely no sense at all.

    This is why I mostly just watch old TV shows and movies on YouTube.

    Welcome to the world of today. Someone else’s death, is someone else’s ‘happiness’ in terms of gaining money, fame or just becoming more populate.
