PEY Creator
A YouTuber or influencer who operates a PEY channel (An acronym for Private Equity YouTube, pronounced exactly like "pay"). This usually refers to two types of people:
1) An original founder who sold their channel to a private equity firm and is now forced to read corporate-approved scripts.
2) A "hired gun" or actor brought in by a corporation to act as the relatable face of a channel they own.

I used to trust his movie reviews, but he’s just a PEY creator now. He just pushes whatever sponsors the parent company tells him to.
