DW is not their own advertiser. They have outside companies buying ad spots.

DW would make money from Crowder's videos/social media.

DW would have exclusive content from Crowder on day 1. You would have to sub to get access to that.

If Crowder got banned, he'd be making DW less money. If Crowder has guaranteed money from DW, he's more likely to not worry about that revenue from Youtube, Spotify, and Apple. If Crowder's compensation is aligned with DW's, then everyone is aimed in the same direction.

Of course Shapiro is thinking about hiring someone in order to make more money. That's the whole point of hiring. Are you from communist Russia?

Ostensibly, Daily Wire is "building a conservative movement" they don't need social media platforms for money because they have subscribers. But in his contract if Crowder was ever banned from YouTube he loses 20% of his contract, another 20% from apple podcast, 10% from Spotify, 10% from Facebook. So 40% of his money is gone overnight for being deplatformed, something Jeremy and Shapiro are "fighting against"

And when conservatives were getting deplatformed Shapiro would direct people to his platform to pay him a membership fee

Nothing like making money off other people while his team play everything on the safe side

Let's play out the scenario:

Daily Wire owns their own platform. They are largely their own advertisers via products, but also have revenue stream from subscribers.

Crowder gets banned. He has a massive audience. They now flock to the Daily Wire Platform to watch Crowder. Those who aren't already subscribed now have an incentive to subscribe. Not all, but some.

Shapiro makes more money.

Crowder gets screwed.

You don't get it.

DW is not their own advertiser. They have outside companies buying ad spots.

DW would make money from Crowder's videos/social media.

DW would have exclusive content from Crowder on day 1. You would have to sub to get access to that.

It's rich seeing people who have such an elementary understanding of the world start to invoke to invoke things like "muh communism" when they've clearly never read Marx.

Nice and programmed mouthpiece for the same people who are inflicting all the ills you complain about.

What we're talking about is a company who claims to have a particular set of moral principles, who then engages in incredibly predatory tactics.

If you take any of the individual components of the contract, as a form of risk mitigation that is fairly excusable. But when you take them as a whole, it is the same disgusting predatory behavior we complain about from the likes Hollywood.

I not calling for any changes in laws ...those companies that push these retarded contracts have every right to do so. . . . it doesnt mean there is any obligation to sign. Crowder is warning newcomers not to, and is his right. He's informing his audience of the pitfalls of doing so and demonstrating how we get so many schlups singing the same tune, and worse, refusing to sing 'out-of-key' and buck the system.

Let’s put this another way for you. You have a company with $100,000 in monthly sales (subscriptions) I have a company with $90,000 in monthly sales (subscriptions) you and I also pull in some ad revenue. We want to merge and make a better company. After the merger we sit at $190,000 a month, I suddenly lose my own ad revenue because of censorship. Now our contract says you’re entitled to 85% of my subscription fees, and you own my likeness.

That is a terrible contract that no one should sign in the first place. What makes it substantially worse is that your $100,000 a month came from telling rubes you vehemently oppose censorship. Apparently not enough to stop lining your pockets when it happens to your employees.

Seems odd that DW "builds a platform" then subjugates their own people to big tech platforms demands.
Why even have every show on big tech?
Can't they have a few shows that run exclusively on their own alt platform?

Um yeah....If Crowder can pull in cash without being on youtube that shouldn't be a problem.
Crowder would have to understand that less views means less money but no doubt there are options.
Are we saying there is no room for any content that can't run on youtube?

He’s demonetized but it is still a subscription funnel for him.

I’m content to split the middle here.

Daily Wire et al to me are part of the Grifter Right.  It’s as simple as that.  They latch on to new conservative voices, monetize them, corporatize them, and then snip off their balls, and so a few years later they become indistinguishable from mushy mealy mouth “conservatives” spouting off bullshit like a path to citizenship and compassionate conservatism.

Or he could rebuild.  Do a GoFundMe for startup capital and build his base again which shouldn't take too long.  He's not going to make much money being demonetized.  But if it's about getting the word out then it shouldn't matter.

On the one hand, if you aren't making money for your employer, why should you be making money...

...but in this case

any conservative personality on the internet that does their job of exposing the left too well gets demonetized and/or completely de-platformed.  Crowder has a point, if you do your job well enough you will be locked into a contract that has penalized you down to 5-15% of your salary with no out(that I'm aware of).

That's fucking insane and anyone looking to actually stick it to the left in any kind of effective manner would never agree to that.  Not with what we have seen Youtube, Facebook, and Twitter pull against conservatives in the past.

He's also absolutely right that this does a great job of showing the big tech companies and advertisers that things like bans, demonetization, and advertising boycotts will work.  Especially when all the things that they dock your salary for seem to come in waves.

I have to think that was his existing contract.  He's been demonetized for years on YouTube and get's banned all the time.

I listen to Chad Prather as well and he dances around the saying the clot shot a lot.

If that is a current contract it's laughable especially in this day and age where you can get canceled for making fun of the cunt that married into the royal family, saying there might be an issue with the vaccine or that an election is questionable.

Someone mentioned ownership of his content and social media.  No fucking way I would sign that shit away.  I saw what they did to Prince.

His best option is to go out on his own. If Anthony Cumia could do it, Crowder can do it.

Crowder's contention is they are also ensnaring the little guys that are starting out with these terms. Effectively preventing them from carving their own way and saying stuff the big tech (and let's face it, the world governments) don't want said.

How do these elites manage to control both the right and left wing media down to every platform like this? Ideologically the people running these various outlets seem to have very little in common. Is Shapiro or Beck in league with the stooges at NPR etc? How are they controlled by the same person? Or is it an ideology that they both subscribe to in their various ways? It's a curious thing.

People sure seem to be in a hurry to lick the leather of the boots on their neck.

It is a bad contract for Crowder, or really anyone. Which is the point of the video. It would amount to Crowder selling his business since the contract notes they "Unknown Company" now owns all his merchandising and other rights. In exchange for giving up all of his rights to everything he has created he gets to deal with the fun of having to:

1. Avoid talking about anything controversial. The only reason "Unknown Company" cares about social media revenue is that they now own those channels per the contract.

2.  He is talking about signing up with a subscription based service. As in if i want to see the content I, as a consumer, have to pay a certain amount of money per month. If I pay 25 bucks a month, or an amount per year to watch Crowder on "Unknown Platform" and tomorrow Crowder suffers a heart attack I can choose to stop subscribing, or just wait until his content resumes.  These are typically monthly or yearly subscriptions. However lets say Crowder has a heart attack, goes to the ER, and spends a week under observation. He misses 1 show. Per the contract that week in the hospital is going to cost him 700k (100k a day) in penalties. I don't know what kind of weird ass version of capitalism you live under but i've never had a boss send me a bill for time i spent in the hospital.

While Crowder knows this is a terrible deal many people may not. He is likely pissed at discovering the people he thought were on the same side as him are actively working against conservative interests.  

Conservatives were told to build their own platforms. When they did those platforms became just as bad as the original platforms. In my opinion it is not accidental. Anyone with the ability, and passion who could get enough of a base to be a successful is likely snapped up early in an oppressive contract to dilute their brand all while being under the complete control of a larger corporate body they cannot escape if they ever do manage to make it big. Same problem we have in Washington DC. You either sell your soul, or get marginalized and your enemies funded in the next election cycle to make sure the only people with any real voice are controlled.

How do these elites manage to control both the right and left wing media down to every platform like this? Ideologically the people running these various outlets seem to have very little in common. Is Shapiro or Beck in league with the stoogesst NPR etc? How are they controlled by the same person? Or is it an ideology that they both subscribe to in their various ways? It's a curious thing.

It doesn't make sense if you see the world in terms of left and right.

It absolutely does when you see the more realistic picture of top vs. bottom.

What NPR and Ben Shapiro agree on is that you're too stupid/ignorant/uneducated to have meaningful say in government. The "right" sort of people should be making decisions, and that ain't you.

Shapiro drinks from the same polluted water that NPR does, hence him gargling authoritarian balls about lockdowns, vaccine mandates, NeverTrumpig, etc. He's an establishment stooge because he has the same conceit the rest of them do.

Is he related to Ava Crowder from the Justified TV show?

Are you asking if a fictional TV character is related to a non-fictional media person?

Can I have some of what you are having? I have had too much reality for today.

It is a bad contract for Crowder, or really anyone. Which is the point of the video. It would amount to Crowder selling his business since the contract notes they "Unknown Company" now owns all his merchandising and other rights. In exchange for giving up all of his rights to everything he has created he gets to deal with the fun of having to:

1. Avoid talking about anything controversial. The only reason "Unknown Company" cares about social media revenue is that they now own those channels per the contract.

2.  He is talking about signing up with a subscription based service. As in if i want to see the content I, as a consumer, have to pay a certain amount of money per month. If I pay 25 bucks a month, or an amount per year to watch Crowder on "Unknown Platform" and tomorrow Crowder suffers a heart attack I can choose to stop subscribing, or just wait until his content resumes.  These are typically monthly or yearly subscriptions. However lets say Crowder has a heart attack, goes to the ER, and spends a week under observation. He misses 1 show. Per the contract that week in the hospital is going to cost him 700k (100k a day) in penalties. I don't know what kind of weird ass version of capitalism you live under but i've never had a boss send me a bill for time i spent in the hospital. Usually its a get well soon, and goodbye to a chunk of my PTO.

The scary part about this, is this is what Steven Crowder
was offered.

I can only imagine what smaller creators contacts look like.
