profiteer n. 1. One who makes excessive profits on goods in short supply.
Michael M is just bringing the news. He's no more a profiteer than any editorial writer or than any of the TV networks; in fact that's where he got a lot of his stuff.
He hasn't defrauded anyone; you can see what he's selling. I don't think any of his film clips are doctored.
Not like charging for meals he hadn't delivered, say.
