Rubén Doblas Gundersen, known as ‘The Rubius’, has been the last to join the ‘flight of youtubers’ to Andorra, to pay less taxes. This has been the subject of discussion in social gatherings in recent weeks and the ‘streamer’ did not hesitate to launch a taunt on television and other traditional media, which he considers “out of date”.
‘El Rubius’ hinted that press, radio and television workers are envious of ‘youtubers’ and that is why they attack them. But ‘The Sixth Column’ he dedicated a part of his program to disprove it.
“The human being changes for better or for worse, and the same happens with the audiovisual sector. For years there are those who have painted the traditional media as huge dinosaurs doomed to extinction. And, to platforms like YouTube, like the meteorite that can kill them ”, the video began with a voiceover.
“As ‘El Rubius’ defends, most of the traditional media ‘what eats away is that any guy from his room has more repercussion than any of his broadcasts for which it is necessary to have 30 or 40 people working’” , continued showing the aforementioned tweet from the ‘youtuber’.

Beside images of various television formats from different times La Sexta’s message continued like this: “Since television was born, it has not stopped evolving. From the TV we see live events in all corners of the world. Thanks to all this deployment, we can carry out investigations such as the ‘Panama Papers’, which affect us all ”.
“There are shallower videos on YouTube”
And finally he ended with a phrase that has been widely applauded: “On TV there are some content more mediocre than others, yes. In the same way that on YouTube there are less in-depth videos, but there are also contents that contribute a lot to society ”.
“Will YouTube end television or does each have their role? We respond to the @ Rubiu5 attacks “, they wrote in Twitter sharing said video.
