"How did you win the case if u had to take the episode down?"

@VuyoTranscends said:

"So MacG is fine with Nota spewing bile and costing his network the bag? I mean Nota didn’t just sabotage MacG; it’s the network, and it’s staff."

@reey_ch replied:

"No, that's not how it works. YouTube pays for a video not in the same month."

@Thatdopechildd reacted:

"I wonder why MacG won because he should pay costs."
