The WWE wrestler’s main issue was with the platform where the documentary was uploaded. Paul shared that Bensinger had promised him that it would be featured on AppleTV+, but the documentary was eventually dropped on Bensinger’s personal YouTube channel. Paul brought along receipts and copies of email exchanges between them to prove that he was lied to by the journalist.

Logan Paul ripped into Bensinger, sharing that he gave unprecedented access to the latter to his life, his house, and the people closest to him like his fiancée Nina Agdal and his brother Jake Paul. Paul even ranted about how he let Bensinger join the Paul family for Christmas, only to be betrayed by the journalist. Paul shared on TMZ Live:

“I thought he had my best interests in line, because I trusted this guy to do a profile on my life. I let him in for five months under the pretense that it was gonna be a show on Apple TV, and yesterday it airs on his YouTube channel. I gave you everything I have. I opened up to you. I was vulnerable. I let you into my house on Christmas, because I thought the show would go onto Apple. But instead, you plastered it on your personal YouTube channel.”

Graham Bensinger responded that the documentary was originally intended for a streaming platform, but the deal didn’t go through. He also claimed that he notified Paul’s manager, Jeffrey Levin, about the AppleTV+ deal falling apart three months ago. However, Paul shared that Bensinger never spoke to him about it.
