Ludwig responds to criticism for using Depp vs Heard trial for \u201ccontent\u201d YouTube streamer Ludwig Ahgren has responded to criticism from fans for using the Johnny Depp vs Amber Heard court trial for \u201ccontent.\u201d Over the past 6 weeks, both Johnny Depp and Amber Heard with their respective legal teams have been in the courtroom, as Depp sought out $50 million in damages for defamation as Heard accused him of abuse. In return, Amber countersued Johnny actor for $100 million. The long legal battle went viral across social media and eventually came to an end on June 1, as Johnny was awarded $15 million, with Amber Heard receiving $2 million in compensatory damages. However, YouTube streamer Ludwig \u2018Ludwig\u2019 Ahgren has come under fire from his fans as he frequently watched and \u201cused\u201d the court trial for \u201ccontent.\u201d In a YouTube video on his second channel Mogul Mail on June 2, Ludwig discussed how he received a message from a fan who was concerned about the way he used the trial for content. \u201cI\u2019m a 28-year-old woman who recently started watching you last year and I just want to say how let down I feel watching you and other content creators make a spectacle out of this trial,\u201d the message read. \u201cI can\u2019t argue with the last fact, I did use this case for content,\u201d Ludwig admitted, who went on and shared viewer stats from his reaction stream to the overall verdict of the trial. The streamer revealed his most viewed stream on YouTube since his move to the platform in December was 85,000. However, his reaction to the verdict got him over 87,000 concurrent viewers, his most viewed stream on YouTube yet. \u201cThis is sad to look at for me,\u201d he said. \u201cThis is embarrassing because I\u2019ve put passion and work into projects like Mogul Money, the Poker event, and whatever else. And they were dwarfed by me being a vehicle in which people would consume a court case they would\u2019ve watched anyway. (Timestamp at 1:00) \u201cI was a vehicle, I did not stream this and add viewers to it, I really feel like I streamed it and absorbed where people would\u2019ve normally watched it,\u201d Ludwig added. \u201cMaybe this is a little cocky, but out of all the vehicles you could\u2019ve watched it in, this car wasn\u2019t too bad. I feel like I did try to weed out the f**king weirdos who were so pro Johnny Depp that they wouldn\u2019t even listen to the court case. \u201cMaybe it was wrong for me to cover it at all, and selfishly I did grow from this and maybe that is a bad thing,\u201d Ludwig admitted. Additionally, he explained, he didn\u2019t cover every day of the trial and was only trying to act as a beacon of information when it comes to defamation lawsuits \u2013 with him having a history of studying the topic when he was in college.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
