LONDON, Sept 19 (Reuters) - YouTube said on Tuesday it had blocked Russell Brand from making money from his online channel after the British actor and comedian was accused of a string of sexual assaults.
Brand, once one of Britain's most high-profile comedians and broadcasters, said on Saturday he had never had non-consensual sex.
That came as the Sunday Times newspaper and Channel 4 TV's documentary show "Dispatches" reported that four women had accused the 48-year-old of sexual assaults, including a rape, between 2006 and 2013.
The allegations about Brand have sent shockwaves through the British media and dominated coverage since they emerged on Saturday.
