Maker Studios - Failure Museum

Disney regretted acquiring Maker Studios, a YouTube network, for $675 million in 2014. Maker Studios had internal dysfunction, an inability to meet admittedly aggressive growth targets and difficulties in creating original content. Disney also failed to do sufficient diligence on the talent. Its downfall was accelerated by Maker Studio’s star YouTuber, PewDePie, making racist remarks.
