Were they the ones talking about how great it will be that AI will replace people's jobs? Or am I thinking of a different outlet?
so.. were they recipients of USAID money or what?
Eh, idk but they definitely receive dark money from countless billionaires, money from their think tanks and all sorts of downright demonic people.
Daily Wire has largely been replaced by Asmongold and Adin Ross.
Hasan used to cover Ben Shapiro's videos to debunk his talking points, but he does that for Asmongold instead now. Adin Ross is an explicit fascist, who Hasan refuses to cover, unless it's something so popular it makes it into the regular news cycle, like Adin Ross interviewing Donald Trump
I can't believe a WoW streamer is the lead conservative commentator right now. What a weird time line.
Or does Fox / OAN still beat these online guys?
Not that weird when you think about how much effort has been put into rightwing propaganda in online games. Bannon was recruiting fash in WoW general chat like 20 years ago
It's also a time where being a huge dumbass is a better argument for fascism and the fascist project's ongoing atrocities for "normie" fascists than bean shabibo's having to attempt making an actual argument in favor. Instead the mold bug can just say "Yeah, based, this guy's a terrorist"
It comes down to audience age. Fox and OAN surely dominate for viewers over 45, but 18-45 is dominated by streamers and YouTubers.
I mean, you have Hexbear, who are huge jerks, posting about the Daily Wire layoffs, and they're overjoyed. What an evil thing to do. What creeps, what jerks.
😔
And Daily Wire is a beautiful site, the best news site. They have wonderful people, some real hotties, too.
So no mr birchum season 2?
jumps on skateboard, snapping it in half
Fuck shit fuck no more Mr birchum yaoi OC???
The company that was sinking all that money into children's cartoons, a reactionary adult animated "comedy", and several films that make 0 dollars after tax write offs??
That Daily Wire?
Deep down they can't let go of their failed Hollywood aspirations. They tried and failed to make it big.
So they get all huffy and made their own media company to whine about it and blame it on woke and gay
And they find success. But deep down... that Hollywood career keeps calling. They can't resist that siren song. So they make their zany sports movie where where the premise is "what if transphobia was joke" and it flopped by all metrics. Probably cost a fair bit of money. Probably took a lot of their attention away from things that were making them money.
But, while you can take the theater kid out of the theater you can't take the theater out of the theater kid.
Daily Fired
Vaxxed?
Makes sense, their flagship wonk is currently getting his numbers completely annihilated by a guy who used a dead rat as an alarm clock.
Candace Owens is more successful since leaving too
USAID and so forth
How did they have that much staff to begin with? I assumed that was just a make work program for
since he managed to be a Hollywood nepo failson too untalented for even a pity job.There is a ton of money dumped into right wing media to keep the hogs
and the algorithms for every large social media site invariably dumps it into people's laps. Like the podcast app I use will shove recommendations for Matt Walsh and Shapiro at me under True Anon playlists.Kind of wonder that since it’s even less deniable they’re the cultural mainstream now, that they will start doing stuff “progressive” media does. Paywalls and firing everyone in sight and just having as few staff as possible.
:popcorn-time: That's terrible!
"You seem kind of psyched...":popcorn-time: Noooooo. I'm bummed!
😌
The internal drama that lead to this sounds hilarious.
Been boozing it up, kindly give me a tl;dr?
I meant the stuff that’s in the linked thread. Ie their PR VP digitally stalking former employees she had beefs with and using their PR as a way to get back at them
DAMMIT! I just signed a movie deal with them!
Were they paying more than min wage.??
A very
