Multiple reports indicate that The Daily Wire has shut down its kids programming and has laid off a number of its employees.This Substack is reader-supported.
What happened is that Boering and Shapiro FK'd up. They pushed the "Pro-Israel at at costs" narrative a little too hard and it cost them $$ mainly in memberships. They presented the Daily Wire as this anti-Left/Anti-woke media competitor when in reality their just a propaganda arm for Israel. Many are not haters of Israel/Jews but who also are NOT interested in promoting Israel/Jews either.
The way they've crafted the narrative is either you support Israel or you are an antisemite and people are done with that BS. I have NO love for Palestine or the Muslim world and I believe Israel; has a right to defend itself. What Israel does NOT have a right to do is to try an coerce American governance into doing what Israel wants.
I for one am glad b/c the DW needed to be exposed especially Boering and Shapiro. The rest are just talent who could go either way. Personally I believe most of the rest are not as pro-Israel at any costs as Boering and Shapiro are.
People, especially Christians, are DONE with the whole we must do whatever Israel wants/needs narrative. We should treat them no better or worse than any other ally.
Name 1 company that field for Bankruptcy or was bought off in some emergency sale that didn't just days, weeks to months prior claim everything was well and they were just "restructuring" or some similar BS? Why do you think publicly traded companies are required by law to provide transparency? People KNOW that executives absolutely will lie their asses off about the state of the business.
It's a shame that a source for this story was a reporter from the Bulwark. The Bulwark are nothing but a bunch of Never-Trumpers who are pretend conservatives.
If you enjoy Schadenfreude, watch their 2024 Election Night coverage. The night begins with supreme confidence in a Kamala victory and as the story changes, they become more and more morose.
...Don't know why so many folks on the right side of the aisle seem almost gleeful about DW having troubles. Why? They do great work!
Bentkey isn't gone, I just checked. But they are apparently asking folks to put in $1 to try it out, where it used to just be part of a membership.
Me, I'll still support a company that does good things, and that's Daily Wire.
They can always ask AIPAC for more money.

Nope, scratch that. I just logged in a 2nd time, and all the Bentkey material is available to me.
I don't know a single person who has left DW, much less done so because they affirm Israel's right to exist.
