I'm backing my statements up with actual data. The numbers I pulled are from the waybackmachine.com
You're just making fanboy statements. I bet this I bet that... wanting other people to prove your point. You bet at least half of TPG.com traffic comes from Facebook? Prove it!

Is this not your quote below here you concede that maybe his likes are fake?

If your opinion is that it would be ridiculous for someone like TPG to buy likes... I completely agree. If your opinion that the idea that TPG buying likes for Facebook is rediculous... I disagree. If he is willing to buy adverts for his YouTube videos in order to make him look like a successful TV host and not provide any links on his videos where he can monetize them... then I don't think it's ridiculous that he's buy likes on Facebook. If you have larger numbers on social media could you not then charge more to make a sponsored post for a company?? Here's another thought... JetBlue paid TPG to promote their company via his YouTube Channel. The only way he can get people to watch his videos on YouTube is through paid adverts on Youtube. So he is technically paying someone to promote his channel so he has enough viewers to promote a product so he can get paid (yes this hurts my head as well).
Isn't TV advertising based upon sweeps week where networks try to get as many people to view their shows in order to get the most money for ad slots? Could this not be the case for TPG social media outlets? The more traffic to his website and the more successful his social media outlets are the more he can charge to promote or endorse a product?
If you are going to make your argument base it on something and not your emotion. The fact that you've already flip flopped tells me your argument has little to no value here.
