Lol, I mean, okay, sure. Not very significant though. First, I would never have read that article. Second, telling stories chronologically is only a new concept to Quenton Tarantino, the rest of humanity kind of defaults to that. Third, I don’t watch IH for his fact based reporting, I don’t care if he just read the entire article verbatim and I could care even less if he just made it all up. I think he is good at humor and shitty animations and neither of those are even remotely represented in the OC. So sure, if you say he’s a plagiarist, I won’t defend it, but maybe you’re going to the wrong place if you’re going to IH for original and reliable “information”.
Lol, I think hbomb needs to get some perspective. He could easily argue that “bIg MoNeY sAlViA lItErAlLy StEaLs OtHeR pEoPlE’s CoNtEnT” and he would be 100% simultaneously correct and useless.
Why wouldn’t IH just properly reference the article and make clear that the animation was based off it? IH ripped the article off in it’s entirety, made a crazy popular video and money off of an author’s work, and that’s obviously not ok.
Stealing content just… isn’t ok. It’s a shitty look for IH
Yeah, a reference would have been nice, sure. But I still think the people that watched that video are NOT interested in reading a longer, unfunny version of stories about dumb people. Conversely, if you were trying to research this story specifically and your source was this video, then maybe the bottom of a cave is the right place for you. Lol. His images are just ripped off stock photos too. So I suppose nothing he does is truly original. Yet at the same time, there is no one like him on YouTube that has the same appeal. So I would say, if you watch his video and then read the article, would you have the same experience? Probably not. He did transform the content. But enough so for you? That’s up to the beholder. So again, sure he stole someone’s article and they had YouTube remove it. I guess the system works. And I still don’t care. He’s neither a journalist nor a researcher so who cares? What a weird battle to fight. The fact that anyone has an opinion this intense about something so dumb is just baffling, let alone enough to make a video about it. I still think hbomb needs to chill the fuck out. It’s just not that serious, and YouTube has already taken action. So who are you carrying the torch for? You know what’s more entertaining than hbomber “taking down” Internet Historian? Any Internet Historian video. I do find it hilarious that his most popular video is the one about IH. So who is milking who here? 😂 I’m just fucking around. You’re absolutely right. But it just means nothing to me. I’m sure I’m not alone.
Ah yeah, hbomberguy had a… few minutes on this youtuber in his Plagiarism video which laid it out pretty well
