Hey can you make a video on Charles X of France and the July revolution
Please do Booker T. Washington next 👍🏾
Buy a Nord sub and he'll think about it.
Actual content begins at 1:26.
Hey, that whole pull-it-sir thing could gone WAY worse.
I'm not going to lie, that's automatically where my mind went until Simon mentioned his nose 😂 im 39 yet still sometimes think like a schoolkid it seems haha
I don't get that
Yeah, that was not where I thought that was going.
@@wuhteva9805 I think they are daydreaming about him being a teacher
@@wuhteva9805 I blame Mary Kay Laturno she dead she don't care
Along the lines of journalism, may I please suggest a video about television newsman Walter Cronkite, aka "Uncle Walter". During his time on the air he was known as "the most trusted man in America."
He was a POS liberal. No journalist can be trusted, ever.

People like u r why I still have faith in humanity thanks
It's not ads tailored to my search history that bothers me Simon, its ads tailored to my private thoughts that keeps me up at night
I don't remember if you've done one already but I assume William Randolph Hearst would be on the list for a show. When discussing yellow journalism you really can't do it without talking about Pulitzer and Hearst
He covered citizen Caine I know but I don’t know if he has a video on Hearst
Yeah I kind of think of them as the same person almost.
Yes, he has. It’s excellent. Look it up.
Or you could read a book.

For some reason people keep posting Michael Jackson as a "god,icon" that needs to be reviewed....he was a nothing more than a pedophile that made music..
No need to review him.... And if so then I guess after him they could do Harvey Weinstein??
Yeah Babe Ruth is by far and away the last one of these I'd like to see made. Nobody cares about him besides Americans.
100% agree, love this list. Thank you so much.
I’m pretty sure he often says don’t bother posting lists, just post one suggestion at a time because then he doesn’t know which ones the most people want. 🤷♀️
Well that sucks somehow finding out the one who started trash media is the same one who created the Pulitzer makes me no longer impressed! And so much for media not taking sides. One thing though still holds true today when you put aside integrity you tarnish everything you've ever touched.
The movie "Hero" starring Dustin Hoffman is pretty much taking the mockery out of it.
Wait till you hear about noble
Who did really say that the media shouldn't take sides? How about taking the side of truth and justice?
@@ultreiasherpa6457 Truth? Like Ministry of Truth?
Every honorable institution is corrupted by dishonorable people.
Are we all ignoring the fact that Simon said "freedom units" when talking about measurements in the first part of the video?? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I think it's weird they're called "freedom units" when they're originating from the British Empire 😆
For the all talk of the US wanting to separate themselves from the UK during the American revolution they sure loved the British government's system of weights and measures
Both Pulitzer and hurst were the inspiration for the movie Citizen Kane(1941).
It’s always my favorite time of day when your videos post…story time.
Great biographics this week. I take it this will lead to a William Randolph Hearst biographics soon 😃🤞
That's like the missing piece for me. Pulitzer, Vidal, Buckley. The architects of why no one believes the news and we all act like screaming toddlers when being political.
Hearst, Murdoch, and David Pecker also have had a role to play in this, perhaps more than Vidal and Buckley, who at least both had some intellectual grounding in their perspectives.
Roger Ailes and Rupert Murdoch.
I'm not sure what Vidal and Buckley have to do with it. As far as I know they never claimed to be impartial "news" reporters.
If Pulitzer and Hearst hadn't done it, someone else would have. It's ultimately driven by economics and a highly contentious political scene. At that time newspapers were having to compete to survive against relatively high numbers of competitors in each city. Eventually through consolidation things got less competitive and better ethics returned. This time around it's the competition from the internet coinciding with a reoccurrence of highly party-aligned staffs.
@@PrezVeto Their slap-fight toddler antics were unique for television at the time. Now, anything except those kinds of antics are forcibly silenced. Vidal talks like every campus lefty, and Buckley sounds like Hillary.
I love your pace and how packed with info your videos are. So well done! Thanks!
obligatory plug: go watch Newsies the musical, it's an absolute bop
(it's about the 1899 newsboy strike, and there is a full recorded version from 2017)
Thank you for adding freedom units.
Simon , thanks , interesting content 👍🎸🎼
THANK YOU SO MUCH it will be very useful for my presentation and, as a non English native speaker, I understood everything. Great talker!!
Can you please do one on Rocky Marciano? Thank you for the great content!!!
"Oh no! Not the Post!" The Gambling Bug.
I had no idea he got his start in St louis. Im sharing !!
Thanks
Could you do a video on the Soviet cosmonaut Vladimir Komarov. Just read a little bit about the end of his life today and it sounds fascinating. Would love to know more!
I'm so scared of WW3 but Simon's beard calms me down
The worst thing about WW3 is to live through it.
WW3 is a hard thing to do. Both sides have to make the same mistakes twice. We have safeguards in place to prevent that from happening which is why world leaders have a direct line of communication to each other.
@@RazgrizWing that makes me feel better
I’m quite surprised you guys haven’t done a biographical on milunka savic
They should do a movie about him like they did about Hearst!
Hi. Could you do a podcast on Mary Anning, the English palaeontologist please?
Would love one on rod Serling
Could you do a segment on G.K. Chesterton?
Thanks.
Could we maybe get a biographics about Lou Gehrig?
He founded my home town paper, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch
you should do a video on king hussein of jordan
Suggestion: Augusto Sandino of Nicaragua! I feel he was an incredibly influential figure in Latin America and would make an incredibly interesting Biographics video!
Do one on Hearst
3:44 FREEDOM UNITS HAHAHA
Should cover the wild Pultizer Hearst newspaper wars.
Should do the story of Giovanni agnelli
The way you told it, did pulitzer actually feel bad about the horrible yellow journalism and change or was he just smart enough go change public perception of him before he died? Feels like the latter to me, since he only changed tactics when hearst was outgoing him at his own game.
Ah. Nothing like a good tabloid!
Can you make a video about Dietrich Eckart: hitler’s mentor
Interesting biography
Make a video about Ragnar Lodbrok and his sons
He enlarged his fortune through the printed word. Frankly he produced nothing but Gossip and Libel. How he can be compared to railroad, steel, retail distribution, and oil giants who left behind an industrial base and real wealth escapes me.
I am from S. Louis. I have no fondness for this man. As newspapers go, the Globe- Democrat was a far better paper.
Hearst was hell and St. Louis is still hella segregated
Thank you for translating to “freedom units” lol. Working in fashion and internationally, I’ve been crippled for life, thanks American School System 😂😂😂
Freedom units, nice...
“A cynical, mercenary, demagogic press will in time produce a people as base as itself.”
Joseph Pulitzer
@@TRC2002 Well that is your opinion I posted this quote not to change anything but for others to share their opinions about it
MAKE ONE ABOUT SUSAN SONTAG
No newsies strike?
With a zeal that can only be considered "woke" or PC, you not only rapidly flew over the fact that he was a Hungarian/Moldavian Jew, but that he joined the Episcopal church after marrying his wife, deceiving her into assuming he was a Christian. He then entered the Christian high society of that era. The penultimate manipulator.
Well done Mr. Whistler.
Can we get a video about the legendary Diego Maradona, we need at least a football (soccer) story on this channel
Pulitzer crawled so TMZ could fly.
WHAT!! a silk handkerchief could buy food and a damn ticket?
William Randolph Hearst next?
I use a Brave browser. No ads.
You know this guy is turning in his grave after what journalist are doing to journalism. They should call it the propaganda award.
This is just a paraphrased version of Pulitzer and His World by James Wyman Barrett. Please cite your sources.
Thanks Simon, I now know wtf Freedom Units are!😁
"Freedom Units" 🤣😂
Fkn Freedom Units!! 😂 Simon 😎
And then he does 😳
A biographic on Khalid Ibn al Walid would be good
Splort:: The exhilarating life of a notary public!
Pull it again sir
Yellow journalism is alive and well in the 21st Century. It just went digital. 😎👍
And to think the award for best journalistic works is named after Pulitzer...it's either a satire or an irony.
Read Spanish newspapers.
@@taskdon769 fitting.
When Casual Criminalist runs into a Biographics video & you wonder when this impressive bloke is going to murder someone 🤣
The most interesting man on the planet (world) is the dos x man. Cheers.
A biography of William Randolph Hearst was proposed for a Pulitzer Prize who found the subject of the book was unworthy!
"Culminated in a fight where Pulitzer pulled out a gun and shot Augustine twice." Ah yes, a true American.
Emilie Floge, please!
Tmes I've been on the internet and saw creepy (or any other) ads: 0 in the last 10 years, Adblock works wonders. Only thing I need a VPN for is so I can torrent copyrighted crap in peace without my ISP bitching (they really should mention that in the ads, it's really the main VPN's exist at all), and for that PIA is cheaper than Nord since they don't buy 100's of overpriced YT sponsorships.
Remarkable story 😮 📰 🗞
I think if the government tracked the websites I visited they be concerned about the amount of time I spend on youtube watching your videos
We'd be on the same list there, then.
I am starting a 12 step program. Simon Anonymous.
@@naftalibendavid I don't have a problem!
@@saeveth Good point, but you know what they say about denial.
@@naftalibendavid Best served cold! Or something.
Wow, so much hate for Pulitzer :( It's easy to blame a man but the truth is, people like drama and sensationalism. If nobody was reading that stuff, he wouldn't become who he has. He simply satisfied what people wanted - exactly what marketing does and nobody has any problem with that. I remember always liking Pulitzer for so many reasons (a few mentioned even in this video and yet people are deaf to the good he did). He deserves some credit because quite frankly 99% of his critics will never go through what he did and come out a winner despite. Instead, his haters are having a nervous breakdown when their wi-fi is down for 10 seconds...
I still blame him he set the standard for the horrible trends of media in his life
But at the same time I do admit I admire his self-made resilient nature and can do attitude,
it takes guts to come to a brand-new county not even speaking the language and having barely any money and yet still making a living is very impressive, there's a reason why so many people still do it even today when they immigrate to the US
Especially back then when the very idea of government safety nets and social security were not even a thing
The Pulitzer Prize just lost all respect for me. A better title may be, 'The Founder of Gutter Journalism and Paparazzi'.
the man looked like you!
White , beard , glasses. That's about it
Val Lewton. I promise it will be interesting.
Too bad it doesn't mean anything anymore
Yellow? What happens to hello when yellow is too mellow? Not much huh.
TH-cam's lifeblood is yellow journalism - I actually subbed to some of the documentary sites because I got sick of it.
Nellie Bly was awesome.
I’m wondering if you all would ever be willing to do one on Governor George Wallace? I think his trip from moderate to the face of segregation, his presidential campaign and assassination attempt, all the way back to moderate is an interesting story. Just how chasing the vote and populism can change someone for the worse.
Pretty sure he's done wallace
🧡
You resemble him
Wish competence, knowledge, and common sense were of value today.
It's never been of value as this video shows
CNN is modern yellow journalism
Cinnamon is for elves.
Broadhead and slayback haha
Make a video about Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the last Shah of Iran.
Correction Simon: Pulitzer's mother was also Jewish, not only his father. However, contrary conventional historical legend has maintained otherwise.
So was he the FOXnews or the CNN of his day?
Now for Pulitzer's exact opposite personality wise needs to be covered, William Randolph Hearst
yellow journalism was prevalent long time ago. E.g., Bible
Ceausescu when?
The OG Clout chaser
Is there really any hope for humanity?
Hey guys, could you please do a bio on the incredible Bill Hicks. Comedy legend. Influential career and died too soon
Freedom units 😂😂😂
The US Army always got a place for you! Be all that you can be! 😂🤣🤷🏾♂️✊🏿🇺🇸
