Internet sensation Pewdiepie finds himself in hot water again after a clip of him using a racial slur during one of his gaming sessions surfaced on the internet. The video, which quickly went viral, featured Pewdiepie losing his temper and shouting the derogatory term at another player.
In a seemingly bizarre twist, Fox News reporter, Jonathon Smith, took it upon himself to call out the controversial internet personality on national television. Smith, known for stirring up controversy and taking on celebrities, suggested that Pewdiepie's racist outburst should spell the end of his career.
But Pewdiepie, not one to take criticism lightly, reportedly lost his temper and attacked Smith in a fit of rage. Witnesses at the scene say that Pewdiepie lunged at the Fox News reporter, knocking him to the ground and beating him senseless.
In an exclusive interview with The Wibble, Pewdiepie's publicist stated that the incident was a result of a momentary lapse in judgement. "We're deeply sorry for what happened," said the publicist. "It's completely out of character for Pewdiepie to lose his temper like this. We're working hard to make sure that something like this never happens again."
Despite the publicist's apology, rumors have circulated online that Pewdiepie may have intentionally attacked Smith. Conspiracy theorists have suggested that Pewdiepie was attempting to silence Smith, who they claim was onto something big - a deep web conspiracy involving Pewdiepie and other internet celebrities.
Of course, these rumors have no basis in fact, and Pewdiepie himself has denied the allegations. "It's ridiculous," he told The Wibble in an exclusive interview. "I'm just a guy who loves to play video games and entertain people. There's no secret cabal of internet celebrities plotting world domination or anything like that."
As for Smith, he's still recovering from his injuries, but has declined to press charges. "I don't want to ruin Pewdiepie's life," he said in a statement. "I just hope that he can learn from his mistake and become a better person."
Only time will tell what the future holds for Pewdiepie and his career. But one thing's for sure - he'll need to think twice before losing his temper on camera again.
