He didn't "attack them", he talked about media sensationalism, then you gave it a sensationalist title.

Knew this was click-bait but I clicked anyways to see Mike. He doesn't *attack* anybody. The guy is like a rapping Mr. Rogers.

Zero attacking happening here imo. An intelligent post about dealing with difficult or damaging information! RIP Chester🙏💞

Yeah mike speek your heart out 👏

i refuse to believe the person that wrote the title actually watched the video. as far as the video itself, stan shinoda, mans a frickin legend.

What he said about journalists having to consider triggers is so so so important. I remember, a couple of months back, a video popped up on my youtube home page when I was just looking for stuff to watch out of boredom. The video was titled 'Chester Bennington's suicide: 5 saddest reasons' and the thumbnail picture was a picture of the body (which god knows how they got or why they thought it was respectful to put it on the internet). I never searched for this. I never clicked on the video. But I had no way of escaping the picture. It triggered me, one of the worst triggers I've ever had. To this day, I still can't think of him without seeing this picture in my head... People need to understand that their actions affect people. They need to learn to take responsibility.

I get ideations quite often, at least once a week. I suffer greatly with widespread chronic pain & this opioid epidemic has caused many others like myself who are suffering additional pain & for me, increased my mental illnesses 10-fold. The chronic pain community has already lost so many to #suicideduetopain because of so many reasons. We haven’t been able to live like our doctors, government & the rest of the world. We survive. Our government is partly responsible as for our crappy healthcare system. We need a voice! We can’t fight by ourselves and the few doctors we have on our side. I can’t even imagine the pain you have gone through. A year and a half later & I’m still grieving the loss of Chester. I watch KZfaq concert videos because it helps, but also brings tears. I even got his signature tattooed on my arm with a butterfly & a semicolon (for mental health awareness.) I plan to continue & finish. I’m so very grateful for all of you & I love the ghost video! lol Super cute & made me smile. Thank you for being you!

Mike is someone I idolise a lot for not only his talent but his mindset

Sending you hugs. Lost my husband 4 days after Chester and we suffered from the same disease. I am so so sorry Mike.

In the Australian media, there are rules (maybe laws?) about how suicide is reported, so that it is not triggering. The method is never described, and often, the word suicide is not even used. They will simply report a death, and then say something like, 'police say the death is not suspicious.' And then, at the end of the article, there will be a list of helplines that we have in Australia for people who might be struggling with the same issues. Some people argue that by reporting in this way, the plight of suicide is being ignored, that the media are not bringing awareness to the issue. I don't know how I feel- as someone who has struggled with suicidal thoughts myself, I don't know which method of reporting is better.

There's a rabbit hole in media he's discussing I agree, outside of that there's foul play however its too simple to be considered a snake when you have to choose your words wisely.

I know it wasn't intentional, I know Mike would NEVER say it on purpose, but the 'thanks for hanging' at the end hit me like a bombshell.

He is so right when he says don't click on that stuff. I had 2 friends who were the most loving funny nerdy goofballs and one turned into a raging misogynist women hating mgtow redpill, and the other a hateful incel. All because they were indoctrinated via these dumbass reddits and websites. Legit echo chambers of hate and nonsense. Even w/ Linkin Park some "fans" have taken to believing horrible rumors and spreading craziness online. Like that's just horrible. Let Chester rest in peace and let his family&friends live in peace. Don't click on the clickbait.

#RIPChester

Truth always comes to light

WE LOVE YOU CHESTER AND WE LOVE ALL MEMBERS OF LINKIN PARK!

This was why I stopped using Facebook, Twitter all forms of social media. That and the lack of privacy. I don't want my ex to find out where I am ever minute of my day. I may go back on Instagram but only if I can turn my location off. Mike you are very wise. I wish you all the best. Happy New year to you and all of LP.

I am so proud of you Mike, been a fan since 1996, was good listening to you, your very wize, I know Chester is proud of you too. LP 4eve

Yas!!! 10000000% Yes! Do not allow any negativity and toxicity to ruin your happy. Rid your life of any and everything that makes negativity win. It is not worth it. Mike you are an amazing person and it's so awesome to see you continue to be such a great influence to so many. Rock on!!

oh nooo, he lost Boris. Aww.

He's been speaking out for years and I love him for it! ✊

Thank you Mike for speaking the truth. Much love, to the world's GREATEST BAND EVER!!!!

I appreciate your words and I have been dealing with mental health for so long that has can remember becoming a part of my daily life. to wish to have the courage and the opportunity to do what Chester did and p then push me not to look at news or media too much and chose to refer to listen to your music instead(being so awsome) think is SO much better than doing other stuff. that might put me down more than usual.Thank you for your kind words and for caring. You are a very kind and caring and sensitive man. Have a wonderful and meaningful holiday season.

please don't worry dear Mike. Everything you said is ALL right and completely understand what you are doing helping others and I thank you for caring. Don't like Twitter(mainly because of Trump :) never did drug and never will. I THANK YOU for CARING. I love music and it's all I look for. I love your new music and happy to see you more. I don't use all media feeling it's way too much stuff to process. THANK YOU FOR BEING YOU, ( Angela from Umbria, central Italy. Hopefully you see that many of us support you and love what YOU do.

Find it hard to watch without Chester, Still sad Love you guys Mike lots of love 😢

Well done to Mike for speaking out on important issues like this, and for really caring about the fans.

The psychic phenomenon Mike is talking about is called Werther effect.

To Mr. Shinoda even though you may not see Mr. Bennington like your fans, family and friends (others that you maybe close to you and vise versa) he (Mr. Bennington) will always be with you in spirit and in the previous music you all made together yes it is a loss and yes it does hurt but he is there with everyone he's been there for family friends and loved ones R.I.P. Mr. Bennington may God rest your soul my brother (not that he and I are actually related by blood or marriage just in general and as a fan of not only Mr. Bennington but the rest of the band

Mike Shinoda, class act & still looks out for you he bands fans and he is fans. Thats why I'm still here, still!!!

Mikey always has the best advice. 🙌🏼💯. I followed Mikey’s advice about two years ago about muting/unfollowing people who post things that are triggers. I was following quite a few people who were always posting hateful, negative, degrading things & I had to unfollow. It took a lot of weight off my chest & shoulders. Like Mikey always says.. Mental Health IS Mental Wealth. 🙏🏼💜🤍

I like how your telling us how to value our connection with life and living happy. This is so important. I agree some things are better left not rehatched or made a spectacle of. In respect to Chester and all of you that knew him we should stop eating up media that’s negative just for info. Cause that info ends up being what coerces us down a negative mental repertoire. We try to wuell out thoughts but our own dillousions of believing we knew him from the way his part in your music guided us all through our own tough times. For me i think the news ends at the shock of it. I used to mentally ask myself what happened or why. But after all he had shared with us about his own struggles i think i too had to box myself out from wanting to know for sure. And i for sure didnt trust some media source. Hell i didnt believe it when i first herd the news. Thank you for your involvement with the online community you bring a lot of heart to the community. When we see you standing strong in hard times its a reminder that life is still special. I know this was over a year ago but still thanks

It’s a shame how is humans have no shame or humanity in them we love you all and Chester will be and always will be missed

U are very wise. I'm glad I watched this ☺️ love Linkin Park!!!!!!!!

I absolutely love your music!! you have an amazing talent and forever will be a LP fan ❤️

I thank you Mike it's been a long time since I looked at a video I just want to say thank you.

I so wish I was a part of this Livestream (I became a fan a few months back)

He is so strong

This is not attacking social media ! Please rename the title

We all know know that journalists do shit and Media is a mess. In every nations. Being famous is somehow definitely toxic. Im so sorry Mike’s loss and Chester.

Wish I didnt miss this live !

I love the way you did this&the words u used&u r so right about it puts it in our heads thx

Spend my time watching you and listen to your words. I also watch the funny videos Mythical morning about "how the music makes the food taste". If want to smile and see you and Chester do the same watch the funny video where see them smile and I smile too :) Thank you Mike for being YOU. Now go to smile watching the Mythical fun morning video again instead of putting myself more down again.

Hope your doing ok Mike, stay safe and sound x

They most certainly need to stop giving details into HOW people are doing the act. He's 100% correct in this video.

your so right!! rip chester

FAITHFULL BLESSINGS TO ALL!!!! I LOVE YA'LL 4EVA & A DAY...MISSING THOSE WEVE LOST ALONG OUR WAY!,...MIKE, PLZ...KEEP GOING ON....WE need ya and want 2 hear whatcha zz z got 2 say!!!, AMEN!

God bless YOU

Agreed.

Amen. We can! Change the world/the internet/social media. Listen,learn, and respect.hope youre all doing allright

love the video and it makes me happy. NOt sure if it should bu the beat and the puppets make smile right away so watch it almost every day, actually let me go see it again :)

How do you avoid bad links?

Mike is a great dude

Maybe im wrong but idk. I lost one of my best friends in 2019 and wouldn't want someone talking about them either so I guess I can kind of see it from his perspective too!

1. Misleading title. 2. Typo in Chester's last name.

Mike's a genious!! Period.

Oh the irony of the video versus the title

We care about YIU and how you are doing. Love the song with the puppets: it makes me smile and keeps me singing during the day. Thanks :)Please take care of yourself, we all love you!!!!!!!!!!

Mike is one stong guy, he will probably deal with this t he rest of his life , Chester was larger than life , he achieved legend status has got to be hard for him.

1:14 lool Mike asmr

I've always been curious of your song's like Shadow of the day, Waiting for the end to come, the Catalyst and final masquerade. What direction were you guy's going with in the Music Videos? It's also bizzare your first song was what I've done before you guy's transitioned over to a new style of music. Very Apocalyptic feel to go from a video of the world falling apart to making song's about the end.

I really hope that you're taking care of yourself and I hope you stay positive and me personally I would like to see a really awesome song not throw together but a song that maybe you and him thought of for a long time and make it happen make it happen

Does anyone notice the light behind him keeps getting bright,Cheaters there with him❤

💔💔💔❣️❣️❣️💔💔💔

I think of suicide so many times every day and my first attempt was when I was 15. RIP chester

Chester bennington is showed up

I don’t see any attacks.

😭

Hoi

I feel completely ignorant, i am 51, and just last week, i found out Mike is Fort Minor, aaaaaaand Fort Minor is Mike!!!! My 15 yo son gave me hell! I let him😂, i destved it.❤

I'm sorry but i don't think hiding from ideas or staying in you own little bubble is helpful. it's better to face your fears and control your emotions, then to let them control you.

Holler at me xD

i te amo 💋 y siempre te amare.

I have to click on it to educate myself and know my enemy.. Never mute... The week are passive

Poor triggered mike

If Mike and the rest of Chester's band mates believe that Chester did commit suicide and they should know, how come there's all these idiots calling it murder and using Chester's death for their own narrative and twisted needs.

x2 thank me later

Okboy.

ไม่รุ้ใจใง.😊

Love mike have to laugh dont share and on this😂 but keep doing your great work and lot crap was put up over the time people shold know to find what real before comment and yeah dont take everything real hear as is hurtfull for familys friends and we just believe what we read . No he right check out he totally right.

8:17 He wants to say: Just listen to LP music. Don't listen to BTS 😂😂😂😂😂

I feel so bad for his ears. As a life line musician and sound guy, I can tell that he's suffering beyond the obvious way more thing that's catching his emotions. God love Chester. But I still feel bad for his ears.

เมียสวยพี่ไมล์

Why does it seem likes hes saying dont look into things about Chester? Anyone else feel like that?

That was difficult to watch, and anyone in the comments please let me know if you have heard this as well or anything else pertaining to it; I FINALLY heard the 911 call for Chester and it took about a year and a half to two years to be released. Anyways, when I heard it I had chills...; It's Mike talking to the dispatcher in the most calmest voice, that he may as well had been ordering takeout. He was driving Chester's wife home. (I know there is speculation with maybe some truth of the fact that Chester's wife was having an affair with Mike) and the third voice in the background is the housekeeper. She is the only one I could hear that was showing any emotion whatsoever. She was screaming and crying. While Mike was acting way too calm. So when he started mentioning Kate Spade, Anthony Bourdain, and others, something just didn't sit right with me about that. Considering the names that he named, I have a bad feeling that Mike has either a side of him we don't want to know, or worse; he may be involved. I could go on and on. I've stayed on top of this topic since their deaths happened in 2017.

Love you Mike but you shoulda known before hand

Chester was Murdered. Rip 👑

I call Mike's video.."DAMAGE CONTROL"!!! Enough said!!! The truth will prevail!!!!!

I see right through you Mike, then you brought up Anthony too making sure you said you have no connection to him what so ever (I don’t believe you), he name dropped Quinten Tarentino, I fucking know, just know that I know and have told others already, Chester was no suicide and you know what happened if not were involved in it unfortunately for you I do hours of research and connected the dots.

Chester did not commit suicide, and niether did Chris Cornell, I will say nothing else other than the truth ALWAYS comes out Mike, "In the End!"........words of a psychic medium, who has the gift to speak with those who are past, hmmmm does she know something? Maybe.

How about you show more emotion for your friend then some travel guide guy and a lady I've never heard of. In fact I have never seen you do anything but profit from Chester's Death. His name???? Who was he. Talk about him, CHESTER. WHY DID YOU NOT DO ANYTHING> YOU SHOULD HAVE GOT IN TOUCH WITH CHESTER!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHY DIDN"T YOU SAVE HIM!!!!!!!!!!!! Dude if I were you I would have disappeared. WHY DIDN"T YOU CALL JOHNNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU WEREN"T AWARE!!!!!!!!!!!!! JOHNNY NEEDED YOU!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm giving you dollars for letting Chester Die. There is only one way to make it aware right? Say his name then. Feel something besides selling your new album. WHY. I don't blame you but I hate that you are profiting off his death. Especially when you say WHY DIDNT YOU CALL JOHNNY! Listen to him and this is a joke. WHY DIDN'T YOU CALL HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But yes ask us if we enjoy the new music that you are releasing by yourself. He asks you to be aware of your money just be aware and spend your money on me and it is important. Enjoy his new album. A lot of funny comments on his friend that Killed Himself. He obviously cared and thought the comments would be about album release and concert dates.
