The Daily Wire
The Daily Wire is a conservative news website co-founded in 2015 by Ben Shapiro and Jeremy Boreing while working at Truth Revolt. Employees include Matt Walsh, Michael Knowles, and Andrew Klavan.
As of March 2019, The Daily Wire's Ben Shapiro Show podcast is the most listened to conservative podcast in America. It ranks at #2, right behind The New York Times podcast The Daily.[1]
Despite the claims of the hard-left that The Daily Wire is fascistic,[2] Matt Walsh was attacked by white nationalist Nick Fuentes for criticizing white supremacism,[3] and Ben Shapiro was the #1 target of the alt-right in 2016 according to the ADL.[4]
Michael Knowles was permanently banned from Fox News for describing radical environmentalist Greta Thunberg as, "a mentally ill Swedish child." Thunberg has ADHD, Asperger's Syndrome, and selective mutism, and has been diagnosed with depression.[5]
In addition to news dissemination, The Daily Wire has announced as of 2021 that it will begin functioning as a Hollywood competitor. They have already released their first fictional feature film Run Hide Fight,[6] which was received very well by audiences,[7] and they hired "cancelled" actress Gina Carano for an upcoming one.[8]
