YouTube star Felix ‘PewDiePie’ Kjellberg has come out in defense of his vlogging fortune after an article on Fusion sparked a fierce online debate – with many angry over the scale of his earnings.
Kjellberg earned $7.4m from his YouTube channel last year alone, where he discusses and commentates on video games.
His channel has amassed more than 9bn views and 37 million subscribers.
