Big advertisers don't want to give money to indipendent content creators, because they are a lot of people and much more difficult to control since they own themselves and are not owned by corporations.
Think about the reaction pewdiepie had after being dropped by disney. If he was a tv star it would have meant the end of his career. Instead it was just a big "meh" and moving on.
Tv networks are easy to control. Networks are often owned indirectly/in part by the very same people who ask for the ad space.
It is not about the value of the ad, it's about not giving too much power to normal people and risk too much decentralization. Having so much voices it's bad, globalist billionaires and corporations risk losing an amount of control over population they don't want to lose, also because they often crave total domination, both in politics and in the markets.
I know this could be difficult to understand, because many of us are sane people and don't crave that kind of power. It's difficult to put ourselves in the shoes of the people with the very big money, but they really do think in term of having absolute power and control (in fact they did get there).
They think "okay, those people have an audience, they make people I can easily control lose the audience, I need a solution", and they do it immediately. Instead it's difficult to us to imagine being so big and rich, and yet feeling treatened by some kids on youtube. It looks crazy to us, but that's really how they think.
Yet that's how corps and billionaires often thinks, because they have a complete different mindset from normal people.
Of course I could be completely wrong, it's just an opinion, no math involved so can't really prove it. Use your gut.
