Quoted: If he doesn't capitulate to big tech, he will lose a significant amount of his contract. If his advertisers drop him (how many of the advertisers are Daily Wire adjacent) He loses a significant portion more.

If the daily wire hosts the videos and charges people to view them, why do they rely so heavily on other channels such as youtube?

Its a massive grift designed to give aging boomers the placebo that someone is 'fighting' things that they disagree with.
The only real opposition is from people who don't shy away from being labelled all of the "-ists" or "anti-" that gets anyone banned on most mainstream platforms. If most people who are a part of the system (the one that oppresses Americans like me) hates you, then the odds are good you're onto something that threatens those with real power. Look at the 'untouchable' topics of history and politics, the ones that no one, right or left, is allowed to disagree with. That's a good way to know you're getting somewhere constructive. |

People are surprise by this? They use those channels to drive traffic. If Crowder gets booted off those channels, they'll have less traffic.

Doesn't he say in the video he didn't sign the contract.
That he was given it to sign for a potentially new thing. Considering he has lawyer he actually consults. They probably pointed out the juicy parts and he said no deal. But the details were supposedly so grimy he had to share. Important things in the contract. They own your brand and social media (even stuff you made on your own before) They can fine you every time you miss a scheduled upload. They can punish you for being deplatformed despite claiming to be a haven for the deplatformed. Isn't this literally the kind of scummy stuff Dave Chapelle an others have claimed with hollywood and media. They basically get you to sign a contract that only they really benefit from only for the privilege of being associated with their channel. Then if things don't work out they can basically take everything you earned there from you and benefit from your work forever. |

Why should the company take all the risk? Ostensibly, Daily Wire is "building a conservative movement" they don't need social media platforms for money because they have subscribers.

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.

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? |

View Quote There was a time DW was going to college campuses and having dialogue that would push the envelope, I feel like once sponsorship money started to roll in there was less and less of that. Crowder would still do change my minds all the way up until the end of his current show. He was banned numerous times for talking about the fairest and most free election in history. DW: Trump was unlikeable and lost the election fair and square. |

That's the whole point of hiring. Are you from communist Russia? View Quote How so? They wouldn't normally be privy to the other social media ad revenue. That only changes because if he signed the contract he would be giving them control over his accounts. That revenue spent on DW would be ad revenue spent on DW not anywhere else. As a subscription model places like youtube and spotify shouldn't have a direct impact on the DW. Only if people pulled their adds or refused to purchase more would that matter for the DW. But if that's only what this was about. Everyone in that scenario gets paid less anyway. The only change is DW suddenly gets a bigger cut of what comes in. Please explain how reducing a creators cut down to 15% of what they are supposedly bringing in isn't predatory or unethical. Especially when situations such as being banned from Youtube is a common occurrence of simply creating the content. |

Quoted: If the daily wire hosts the videos and charges people to view them, why do they rely so heavily on other channels such as youtube? View Quote They don't. People are missing the point that the main revenue stream with Crowder is subscriber based. This not a situation where platform strikes or bans would actually impact their profit that much. He would be penalized on all revenue streams for content bans or channel strikes. Both of which are highly likely when you actually speak the truth. LWC hasn't been monetized on YouTube in over two years. |

Quoted: So he should get paid if he won't read ads or gets kicked off YouTube? View Quote Yeah, that seems like a pretty reasonable part of the contract. They are paying him for eyeballs/ears on their ads. If he doesn't read them, or gets booted off popular platforms and can't read them, why should they continue to pay him the full rate? But I am 7 minutes into the video and still don't know what his issue is. |

I didn't get that far in the video because it was taking him forever it felt like clickbait. Learnt nothing in the 6 minutes I gave him.

Quoted: Did Crowder think it was a charity? View Quote He would almost double daily wire’s subscriber base, then if he gets deplatformed his entire revenue is cut 85% to include DWs now doubled subscriber-base? And DW now owns any and all likeness of Crowder, and he can’t go elsewhere. I guess I just don’t understand business. |

Quoted: The question the normies need to ask themselves, is after the last six years, the massive swell of conservative outpouring, all the money being flung around everywhere, all the conservatives that have donated untold amounts of money... What has actually changed? What has happened? The reality is that at the end of all that, all the people leading the charge are either 1) Completely Blacklisted or Otherwise Ran Off 2) Consolidated under one of two Brands, The Blaze or The Daily Wire And at the end of all that, the only real success that we've seen was the overturning of Roe V Wade, which has a result of Donald Trump, whom both of those organizations completely outright detested.

You will be charged a fee (reduction in compensation) if You miss an upload. Don't read all the ads they want you to. Get banned/deplatformed from your social media accounts. |
