Well, Russell Brand might have disappeared from more traditional Media Outlets over recent years and he is no longer in Hollywood Films but he has built a huge following across social media on the likes of instagram, twitter and youtube he has millions of followers. On youtube in particular, he has over 6 million subscribers. He post videos near daily and he has monetisation on them which means that youtube puts adverts from other companies before and after, sometimes in the middle as well of those videos, viewers will be familiar with them. He gets a cut of the revenue from those adverts. I contacted google yesterday which owns youtube to ask whether or not that was under review given the serious nature of the allegations. As you say, Russell Brand denies them but they are still serious allegations. They didnt respond yesterday but this morning they have come back with a statement saying, we have suspended monetisation on Russell Brands channel for violating our creator responsibility

blanco river you see. normally a river that winds peacefully through the central texas town here of wimberley. as you take in the scope of the damage that s been caused by the flood waters here from one side of the river all the way to the other, where the river crested more than 40 feet above its normal stages here along the blanco river. right now there are search and rescue teams. you can kind of make them out in the distance down below where we are, going up and down the banks of this river. as you mentioned, brooke there are 12 people missing, believed to be part of a weekend gathering of people who had come here to celebrate memorial day weekend. all of this ending in what could very well be a tragic situation, given that there are 12 people believed to still be missing. search and rescue teams are going up and down the banks of this river here looking for those people and those efforts will continue in the coming hours. really there s a great deal of damage assessment going on.
