This research employs the nomination and predication strategies of the Discourse-Historical Approach (DHA) as proposed by Reisigl and Wodak (2009). The findings indicate that PewDiePie is presented as a popular yet controversial Youtuber who 'flirts' with the right-wing groups and spread their beliefs through similar patterns of actions through membership categorization device, proper name, professional anthroponym, explicit predicates, and adjectives.
