** Anthony breaking down in tears during his review of Mac Miller's "Good News". People started editing the clip to make it look like he was crying over incredibly petty things. On his second channel, Anthony expressed his disappointment with having an emotionally vulnerable moment be twisted into a crude joke. He also acknowledges that there's little he can and should do about it, and understands why it became a meme.
