On October 2022, The Daily Wire was attacked and ratioed by its own audience and followers due to cringe and baseless statements by self-declared (satirical or not is certainly not a good start) "Theocratic Fascist" host [[Matt Walsh]] who randomly called anime and [[Japan]]ese pop-culture in general "[[satanic]]" (Japanese are not exactly famous for ever been particularly into Satanism). The only explaination Walsh gave to defend his position is "I have no argument for why it's satanic, it just seems that way to me". This was also very counterproductive to the patriot movement, not only because [[leftist]]s and [[woke]] puritans are typically the ones who are anti-Japanese entertainment and pop-culture, constantly engaged in anti-Japanese propaganda, neo-puritanism, [[racism]] and [[imperialism]] (the main reason why [[Ken Akamatsu (Mangaka/Politician)|Ken Akamatsu]] vowed to fight against this threat and why he decided to run for office in Japan, winning in a landslide) and the usual and main fans and consumers of anime and manga are on the conservative and libertarian side, not to mention the fact that Japan is generally and traditionally conservative-libertarians, but also because his statements were used by woke leftists as a justification to attack even more conservative and patriots and to "prove" their point to doubt of conservatives' and libertarians' credibility, despite Walsh not representing the patriots' movement. Matt Walsh, along with its credibility, lost many followers and viewers according to the general negative reaction on [[Twitter]] and social media. An [[Ageism|ageist]] social media campaign against so-called "[[boomer]]s" (despite Walsh being just in his mid-30s but reflecting mainly false or exaggerated stereotypes about the aforementioned age category) was also started because of Walsh's statements.<ref>https://en.datosjam.net.pe/anime/otaku/a-popular-columnist-still-believes-that-anime-is-satanic/</ref><ref>https://www.geeksandgamers.com/topic/matt-walsh-vs-anime/</ref><ref>https://themanganews.com/anime-news/american-right-wing-journalist-claims-all-anime-is-satanic/</ref><ref>https://averagebeing.com/political-commentator-matt-walsh-says-anime-is-satanic-fans-arent-backing-down/</ref><ref>https://www.sankakucomplex.com/2022/10/18/american-commentator-denounces-anime-as-satanic/comment-page-2/</ref><ref>https://redstate.com/brandon_morse/2022/10/17/auto-draft-115-n644456</ref><ref>https://www.thedailybeast.com/far-right-troll-matt-walsh-denounces-anime-as-satanic-though-he-doesnt-know-why</ref><ref>https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2022-10-17/daily-wire-matt-walsh-says-all-anime-is-satanic/.190927</ref><ref>https://www.indy100.com/viral/matt-walsh-anime-satanic</ref><ref>https://www.newsweek.com/daily-wire-host-who-called-anime-satanic-blasted-real-satanists-1752490</ref><ref>https://www.mediaite.com/podcasts/matt-walsh-declares-anime-satanic-but-admits-hes-not-sure-why/</ref><ref>https://boingboing.net/2022/10/17/theocratic-fascist-matt-walsh-says-anime-is-satanic-because-it-just-seems-that-way-to-me.html</ref><ref>https://youtu.be/3GWF4FS5ZHc</ref><ref>https://youtu.be/UsZr31uU9Wg</ref><ref>https://youtu.be/TR-GRaH-jNw</ref>

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]

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,[2] which was received very well by audiences,[3] and they hired "cancelled" actress Gina Carano for an upcoming one.[4]
