Wrapping up a year full of blockbuster content — including the internationally-acclaimed documentary, “<a href="https://get.dailywire.com/wiaw/subscribe?utm_campaign=wiaw&amp;utm_medium=paid&amp;utm_source=bing&amp;utm_content=na_subscriptions&amp;cid=wiaw&amp;mid=b&amp;xid=0&amp;utm_term=daily%20wire%20what%20is%20a%20woman&amp;utm_campaign=&amp;utm_source=bing&amp;utm_medium=ppc&amp;hsa_acc=6411461344&amp;hsa_cam=429594023&amp;hsa_grp=1326012504412860&amp;hsa_ad=&amp;hsa_src=o&amp;hsa_tgt=kwd-82876595724474:aud-808681083:loc-190&amp;hsa_kw=daily%20wire%20what%20is%20a%20woman&amp;hsa_mt=e&amp;hsa_net=adwords&amp;hsa_ver=3&amp;msclkid=51ab82747ad71dd4ed35e102e7dfff3a" target="_blank" rel="noopener">What is a Woman?</a>” — Daily Wire co-CEO Jeremy Boreing announced in a livestreamed town hall address Thursday that the company has surpassed one million paid subscribers to its streaming platform, DailyWire+.
Additionally, the company revealed that its razor subscription business, Jeremy’s Razors, has sold over 100,000 razor subscriptions. The media juggernaut — which has nearly doubled its growth year-over-year every year since its 2015 founding — will continue that trend in 2022, projecting nearly $200M in revenue by the end of the year. The company reported $100 million in revenue in 2021.
“One million active subscribers makes us one of the most successful conservative media companies of all time,” said Boreing. “It took us five years to get our first 100,000 active subscribers. But we doubled down, reached higher, pushed harder and, just two-and-a-half years later, we’ve 10Xed that number.”
“But it isn’t even a drop in the bucket compared to the media companies currently in service of the left. In that world, 10 million subscribers is the bare minimum just to play the game,” Boreing continued. “To succeed in our effort to create a true news and entertainment alternative for the millions of Americans tired of the hegemony of the woke giants, we have to grow 10X, and then we have to grow 10X again.”
In addition to its seven-figure membership total, DailyWire+ has nearly 90 million followers across all social media platforms, and generates 80 million podcast downloads per month.
Daily Wire co-founder and Editor Emeritus Ben Shapiro&#8217;s daily radio show and podcast receives over 40 million monthly downloads and has now been listened to a staggering 1.2 billion times.
Candace Owens, whose blockbuster takedown of Black Lives Matter, “The Greatest Lie Ever Sold,” was a runaway hit, launched a new five-days-per-week podcast that became the No. 1 news podcast in its first week. She’s also got a new show called “Taboo with Candace Owens,” in which she sits down with top artists and thought leaders to discuss topics deemed “off limits” by the media.
In just its first year, the podcast “The Comment Section with Brett Cooper” has garnered 1.4 million subscribers and 500 million total views on YouTube.
Best-selling author and international superstar Dr. Jordan Peterson, who joined DailyWire+ in June, brought his entire archive of essays, podcasts, and videos including:
<ul>
<li>Logos &amp; Literacy: Peterson takes viewers on a tour of the Museum of the Bible in Washington, DC, and discusses the history of the world’s most significant book.</li>
<li>Dragons, Monsters, &amp; Men: Learn how to discover your purpose and slay the dragons that stand in your way in this four-part series on men, masculinity, and the pursuit of greatness.</li>
<li> Jordan B. Peterson On Marriage: This holistic, three-part series prepares you to better understand, appreciate, and strengthen your relationship with your spouse, and achieve the ultimate goal: the perfect date that repeats endlessly.</li>
<li> Jordan B. Peterson Beyond Order Tour: Your chance to Join Dr. Peterson for his “Beyond Order: 12 More Rules for Life” 2022-2023 tour.</li>
<li>Exodus: In this series, Dr. Peterson engages in a roundtable discussion with six other scholars to read Exodus and discuss what it means, and why it remains significant thousands of years after it was written.</li>
</ul>
Boreing also announced a slate of major projects in development, including:
<ul>
<li>Exclusively securing all feature film and television series rights to develop and produce an adaptation of Ayn Rand’s “ATLAS SHRUGGED”</li>
<li>An exclusive option to develop and produce feature film and television series adaptations for all six books in Stephen R. Lawhead’s “THE PENDRAGON CYCLE”</li>

U.S.

DailyWire+ has acquired exclusive film and television rights to Ayn Rand&#8217;s &#8220;Atlas Shrugged,&#8221; and will develop a series based on the groundbreaking 1957 novel, company co-CEO Jeremy Boreing announced Thursday.
Plans for the series follow a year of blockbuster content, including the internationally-acclaimed documentary, “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/videos/what-is-a-woman" target="_blank" rel="noopener">What is a Woman?</a>” and the gritty western starring Gina Carano, “Terror on the Prairie.” Boreing announced plans for the streaming series at a livestreamed town hall address in which he also revealed that DailyWire+ has now surpassed one million paid subscribers.
“When we decided in 2020 to launch into entertainment, my vision at that time was to bring Ayn Rand’s seminal work on the creative power of economic freedom and the terrible consequences of its loss to the screen as a premium series,” Boreing said. “The obvious problem, we thought, is that we would never be able to get the rights to such a culturally ubiquitous work. I was wrong.&#8221;
&#8220;Today, I am thrilled to announce that DailyWire+ has acquired the exclusive rights to one of the most influential books of the 20th Century,&#8221; he added.
The company announced its launch into entertainment in November 2020 and released its first feature-length film, “Run, Hide, Fight,” in January of 2021. It has since released six more feature-length films and documentaries.
Boreing vowed that the series will be true to the book’s message, plot, and character archetypes. The book — which has sold over seven million copies worldwide — champions Rand&#8217;s theory of objective reality and morality. Set in an over-regulated, dystopian United States and told from the perspective of railroad executive and protagonist Dagny Taggart and the fiercely individualistic leader John Galt, it promotes the theme that self-interest is not only the most moral, but also the only viable way to organize society.
Boreing and Daily Wire co-founders Ben Shapiro and Caleb Robinson are producing for DailyWire+. Dallas Sonnier and Amanda Presmyk are producing for Bonfire Legend. John Aglialoro and Harmon Kaslow are producing for Atlas Distribution Company. Scott DeSapio, Joan Carter, and Danielle Cox executive produce.
The deal was negotiated by Sonnier and general counsel Joshua Herr on behalf of DailyWire+, Roger Arar and Kaslow on behalf of Atlas Distribution Company, and Tim Knowlton of Curtis Brown Ltd. on behalf of the Peikoff Family Partnership and the Estate of Ayn Rand.

A first edition copy of Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand that Joanne Hall borrowed in 1983 from the San Francisco Public Library in her home in Pleasanton, Calif., on Sunday, December 18, 2016. As of that day, the book has been overdue for 12212 days since it w

The media trade association that <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/unadulterated-bigotry-daily-wire-co-ceo-blasts-podcast-movement-after-apology-over-ben-shapiros-presence-at-conference">vilified Ben Shapiro</a> last month for simply appearing at a recent trade show apologized Thursday, saying its treatment of <a href="https://radioink.com/2022/09/08/podcast-movement-apologizes-to-ben-shapiro/#:~:text=Podcast%20Movement%20began%20in%202014%2C%20with%20four%20podcasters,recognize%20there’s%20work%20to%20do%20as%20we%20grow." target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Daily Wire</a> star &#8220;wasn&#8217;t right.&#8221;
Podcast Movement, the industry’s biggest trade group and host of annual  conferences that bring together top media companies, said in a statement it was wrong to claim Shapiro’s presence at its recent Dallas show caused “harm.” The mea culpa came after The Daily Wire and media giant Cumulus both vowed to end their support for the organization.
“As we stated, we’re continuing to evaluate our policies guiding social media &amp; events with inclusivity, diversity &amp; respect for all,” Podcast Movement said in its <a href="https://radioink.com/2022/09/08/podcast-movement-apologizes-to-ben-shapiro/#:~:text=Podcast%20Movement%20began%20in%202014%2C%20with%20four%20podcasters,recognize%20there’s%20work%20to%20do%20as%20we%20grow." target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a>. “We have to start by sincerely apologizing to Mr. Shapiro for our reaction when he visited a booth we sold his company. That wasn’t right.
“Podcast Movement began in 2014, with four podcasters who had an idea to create a vibrant community that was for podcasters, by podcasters,” the statement continued. “We’re still those people with the same idea, and recognize there’s work to do as we grow.”
<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/author/ben-shapiro" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shapiro</a>, the Harvard Law-educated radio host, podcaster, and best-selling author who engages regularly in civil debates with conservatives and liberals alike, was seen chatting amiably with attendees at the event. The Daily Wire had paid to sponsor a booth at the trade show, and Shapiro accompanied several company employees to it. But one person in attendance was apparently triggered by his mere presence and complained to Podcast Movement on Twitter.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
That complaint prompted Podcast Movement to send out a series of tweets that painted Shapiro in a negative light, apparently for no reason other than his conservative beliefs. The organization said Shapiro’s presence caused “harm” to some in attendance and promised to be “more careful” when considering sponsors in the future.
Shapiro jokingly referred to himself as &#8220;Darth Vader&#8221; in the wake of the incident, but said he found it disturbing that an avowed conservatives mere presence could merit such a response.
Daily Wire co-founder Jeremy Boreing, who at the company’s recent “Backstage” event had <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/unadulterated-bigotry-daily-wire-co-ceo-blasts-podcast-movement-after-apology-over-ben-shapiros-presence-at-conference">blasted Podcast Movement</a> for “unadulterated bigotry” in its treatment of Shapiro, said he accepted the apology.
“People rarely admit when they do wrong, particularly on the left where every cultural indicator reinforces your error,” said Boreing, who founded The Daily Wire in 2015 with Shapiro and Caleb Robinson. &#8220;Podcast Movement did the right thing with this apology. [Co-founder] Dan Franks also called me to make clear their treatment of Ben was unacceptable. Good on them.&#8221;
The apology came amid pressure from industry heavyweights. In addition to The Daily Wire+, which is the No. 6 podcast publisher in the nation, Cumulus, which syndicates Shapiro’s show through its Westwood One subsidiary, said it was &#8220;dismayed and disappointed&#8221; by Podcast Movement&#8217;s initial tweets. Earlier this week, the Atlanta-based owner of over 400 radio stations said it would cancel its 2023 sponsorship plans over Podcast&#8217;s Movement&#8217;s treatment of Shapiro.
It was not immediately clear if either The Daily Wire or Cumulus would rejoin the organization in light of its apology.

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/joe-rogan-slams-blood-red-dark-background-of-bidens-speech/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Joe Rogan</a> blasted the podcasting trade association that bizarrely tried to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/unadulterated-bigotry-daily-wire-co-ceo-blasts-podcast-movement-after-apology-over-ben-shapiros-presence-at-conference" target="_blank" rel="noopener">paint The Daily Wire’s Ben Shapiro</a> as a dangerous pariah, calling out the crackpots behind last month’s shocking attack as part of a woke cult.
Podcast Movement created the stir after <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/author/ben-shapiro" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shapiro</a>, host of the biggest political podcast in the country, stopped by a trade show in Dallas where the company he co-founded had bought a sponsor’s booth. Although Shapiro simply shook hands and posed for selfies with fans before leaving after a short time, Podcast Movement tweeted a series of groveling apologies for his mere presence.
“Folks, people are in a cult,” Rogan said during his <a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/6naQO1HiksW0LEnPf7o43M?si=XSHT-WPsQeWQQOwN00j1iA&amp;utm_source=copy-link&amp;nd=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Thursday show</a>, in which he incredulously summarized the strange sequence of events. “They’re in a cult. You can’t entertain any views that are different from yours?”
“It’s just conversation,” he continued. “It’s like people have opinions on one side and people have opinions on the other side. But all they are doing is having conversations. It’s a f***ing podcast.”

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
The podcast king read the entire tweet thread from Podcast Movement, including its apology for the “harm” caused by Shapiro sharing space and time with people who may not share his worldview. The over-the-top reaction is believed to have been prompted by the complaint of one person triggered by the sight of Shapiro.
“Afterwards, they release a statement talking about the &#8216;harm&#8217; that that did, how they were not aware, like the people who ran this podcast thing, of the &#8216;harm&#8217; in bringing in Ben Shapiro [and how] that was very dangerous to people,” he added.
Rogan blasting the podcast establishment is akin to Tom Brady trashing the NFL, and perhaps not coincidentally, Podcast Movement has taken down the tweets and replaced them with a trite new statement pledging policies of “inclusivity, diversity &amp; respect for all.”
“It’s a journey,” the new statement says. “We’ll keep listening, keep growing together.”
Rogan noted Shapiro is a co-founder of The Daily Wire and had every reason to be at the show.
“This is bulls***,” Rogan railed. “To say it was a bad idea to let that guy {come] there is crazy. Of course it’s a good idea. It doesn’t mean you agree with everything he says.”
“We’re in a cult, folks,” he added. “There’s a mind-virus cult that took over half the f***ing country.”
Daily Wire co-CEO <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jeremy-boreing">Jeremy Boreing</a> blasted Podcast Movement at the news and entertainment company’s “Backstage” event Wednesday night, calling its actions ideological bigotry.
“There’s no one else in the world who would be subjected to this type of bigotry, and you get away with it,” Boreing said. “You could not treat a black man this way, you could not treat a lesbian woman this way, you could not treat anyone on the Left in this way … but you can treat a conservative this way with unadulterated bigotry on the page.”

Video of Shapiro at the event shows him cordially greeting approaching fans. While the host has jokingly referred to himself as “Darth Vader” in the wake of the incident, he told Wednesday’s audience that the Left’s effort to not only silence, but erase, all those with whom it disagrees is an ominous phenomenon.
“If you’re going to seek to destroy us, then we are not going to just sit here and be destroyed,” Shapiro said. “I do not acquiesce to the erasure of my own existence.”
Boreing said he <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jeremy-boreing-details-phone-call-with-podcast-movement-co-owner-following-apology-for-ben-shapiros-presence" target="_blank" rel="noopener">tried to resolve the matter</a> with one of the owners of Podcast Movement, but his demand of a public apology to Shapiro and The Daily Wire was spurned. Boreing called on podcasters, conservative or otherwise, to stand up for free speech.
“We will not allow Podcast Movement to continue to present itself as a neutral place,” he said. “If you’re a conservative podcaster, they don’t want you there … they don’t care to defend you,” Boreing added. “They want to make money off of your success while your political foes try to destroy you, and then they will watch you die.”

Daily Wire co-founder and co-CEO <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jeremy-boreing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jeremy Boreing</a> discussed the details of his phone call with an owner of Podcast Movement after the trade association <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/unadulterated-bigotry-daily-wire-co-ceo-blasts-podcast-movement-after-apology-over-ben-shapiros-presence-at-conference">apologized</a> for the “harm” caused by Ben Shapiro’s presence at their annual conference last week.
During The Daily Wire&#8217;s &#8220;<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/daily-wire-backstage-now-with-even-more-dystopia">Backstage</a>&#8221; show Wednesday, Boreing said the co-owner attempted to paint the apology as non-political, but The Daily Wire “god-king” then read from portions of Podcast Movement’s tweets that clearly showed the opposite.
&#8220;He said this was not in any way political. And when he said it, I’m embarrassed to say it, I just got so adrenalized and so upset,” Boreing said. “And I just started reading from the tweets … &#8216;The pain that will be with us forever, the harm caused by his very presence.’ You’re saying that isn’t political?&#8221;

The Podcast Movement co-owner began the phone call by claiming the conference has a policy “that the talent not appear,” Boreing said. Shapiro’s visit to the event made other event sponsors upset, according to the Podcast Movement owner, as told by Boreing.
“Podcast hosts appear on all their panels!” the Daily Wire co-CEO said. “It’s just nonsense. The whole fracking conference is for podcasters.”
Podcast Movement, which is the world’s largest annual conference for the podcast industry, bowed to the woke demands of one angry person last week. The group wrote in its apology that Shapiro’s presence caused “harm” to some in attendance and promised to be “more careful” when considering sponsors in the future.
“Hi folks, we owe you an apology before sessions kick off for the day,” Podcast Movement tweeted Thursday morning. “Yesterday afternoon, Ben Shapiro briefly visited the PM22 expo area near The Daily Wire booth.

Boreing, who famously started his own razor company when former Daily Wire advertiser Harry&#8217;s Razors attacked his company, made the comments at The Daily Wire&#8217;s latest &#8220;<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/show/daily-wire-backstage">Backstage</a>&#8221; event, where he, Shapiro, and the company&#8217;s other personalities discussed the apology from Podcast Movement.
Shapiro explained that the incident with Podcast Movement is yet another example of how the Left attempts to silence conservative voices, but he insisted that conservatives cannot back down.
“If you’re going to seek to destroy us, then we are not going to just sit here and be destroyed,” Shapiro remarked. “I do not acquiesce to the erasure of my own existence.”
Podcast Movement, which is the world’s largest annual conference for the podcast industry, bowed to the woke demands of one angry person last week.

If you’re a conservative podcaster, they don’t want you there &#8230; they don’t care to defend you,” Boreing added. “They want to make money off of your success while your political foes try to destroy you, and then they will watch you die.”

'Unadulterated Bigotry': Daily Wire Co-CEO Blasts Podcast Movement After Apology Over Ben Shapiro's Presence

The Daily Wire announced Wednesday the launch of DailyWire+, a new subscription-based podcast and video-on-demand streaming service that will host Dr. Jordan Peterson.
The new streaming service will be home to the company’s growing catalog of video content. The multi-year deal between Peterson and DailyWire+ will also involve the production of exclusive bonus content and the development of specials featuring Peterson and noteworthy guests.
“Obviously, there’s a huge shift in media technology from whatever was the legacy media in print, video, entertainment, and in the digital world, and clearly DailyWire+ is at the forefront of that,” said Peterson. “Partnering with a company that shares my own values for excellence and entrepreneurial vision is the natural next step for me. And, it’s time for a new adventure.”
The latest development in the illustrious and enigmatic life of Peterson follows a meteoric rise from relative obscurity as a Canadian professor, to worldwide stardom as a pre-eminent public intellectual. His latest endeavor includes the launch of a limited series, “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/subscribe-plus-dragons-monsters-and-men">Dragons, Monsters, and Men</a>,” which is <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/subscribe-plus-jordan-peterson">now available</a> exclusively at DailyWire+.
In addition to hosting Peterson, DailyWire+ will be home to various entertainment offerings, including exclusive original movies, and beginning in 2023, kids’ entertainment content. The company has also expanded its existing deal with PragerU, which will launch a new series, “PragerU Master’s Program with Dennis Prager,” in the fall.
“The launch of DailyWire+ marks the beginning of an aggressive technological and content expansion for us,” said co-CEO Jeremy Boreing. “The addition of Dr. Jordan Peterson, the pre-eminent public intellectual of our time, should indicate exactly how serious we are about bringing quality counter-cultural voices to the fore.”
The company announcement was made during a town hall address that took place at “Backstage: Live at the Ryman” on Wednesday night. The event featured cancel-proof conversation and irreverent observations, and promised to deliver a major surprise.

New Streaming Service DailyWire+ Launches, Signs Jordan Peterson In Multi-Year Deal

The Daily Wire Backstage event on Wednesday evening kicked off with a bang — backstage, naturally — when a gentleman named Sergio proposed to his girlfriend Kayla, literally at the feet of Daily Wire Editor Emeritus Ben Shapiro.
Co-CEO and [lower-case] god-king Jeremy Boreing called the couple out just before the show went to intermission, beginning with a comment about how much he loved to hear babies cry at serious events like funerals or weddings.
Acknowledging that the parents of the crying baby often felt embarrassed, Boreing explained that what he loved about it was the very real example of life going on even in the face of serious situations.
Boreing then shared video of the moment with the entire audience and asking the &#8220;Sergio and Kayla&#8221; to stand up so everyone could applaud them — and admonished the two to keep their hands to themselves, joking, &#8220;We want to see your hands. We want to see enough room for the Holy Spirit.&#8221;
He warned them to keep their hands to themselves until the wedding day, after which he encouraged them to &#8220;get busy making&#8221; as many little Sergios and little Kaylas as they liked.
Shapiro then joked that he was the perfect person to witness such a proposal, sarcastically claiming that was mainly because of his reputation as an overly emotional person.
&#8220;I&#8217;m known for my emotions,&#8221; he said. And then borrowing a line from Dr. Suess&#8217; &#8220;How the Grinch Stole Christmas,&#8221; he added, &#8220;My heart grew three sizes that day &#8230; Congratulations. Mazel tov.&#8221;

The Daily Wire Backstage panel addressed the recent Supreme Court decision overturning landmark abortion rulings in Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey, making it clear that even though it was one of the biggest political wins in our lifetime, the real battle was only beginning.
&#8220;Roe is gone. Ben, tell us what we’re supposed to think,&#8221; co-CEO Jeremy Boreing kicked off the segment.
Shapiro called the overturning of Roe the biggest political win of our lifetime, adding that some of the credit for the momentous ruling belonged to former President Donald Trump.
&#8220;Thank President Donald J. Trump,&#8221; Shapiro said, noting that he had initially had very real doubts about Trump. &#8220;But the minute he selected Justice Neil Gorsuch, on air I put a MAGA hat on.&#8221;
&#8220;The battle is taken up right now,&#8221; Shapiro continued, arguing that getting the decision-making process sent back to the states was not the end of the fight, but the beginning — and that fight was going to be in the hearts and minds of the people.
He went on to say that the dissent in Dobbs v. Jackson Women&#8217;s Health Organization made the battle lines abundantly clear. &#8220;For them, abortion is a sacrament,&#8221; he said. &#8220;A woman cannot be a woman unless she retains the right to kill her preborn child.&#8221;
But those on the Left could still get out over their skis if they push too hard on the issue, Shapiro added, noting that Democrats had adopted a position that did not align with the majority of Americans. &#8220;They’re sowing the seed of their own destruction.&#8221;
&#8220;Now is the moment to push full speed ahead,&#8221; Michael Knowles agreed.
Matt Walsh pointed out the fact that the post-Roe landscape was revealing the dishonesty of some of the pro-abortion arguments. &#8220;I thought they said that abortion was only 3% of what Planned Parenthood does,&#8221; he said, asking, &#8220;Why are they closing clinics?&#8221;
Candace Owens, who joined the panel despite being nine months pregnant  — and joked that delivering her baby during the live event would make for good TV — added, &#8220;It&#8217;s so surreal to hear the argument that they’re making when you’re about to bring a baby to term.&#8221;

The Daily Wire came under a sustained DDoS attack during the world premiere of “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/videos/what-is-a-woman">What is a Woman?</a>” that was intended to disrupt people being able to access the highly anticipated film.
&#8220;We have confirmed that @realDailyWire experienced a significant and sustained DDoS attack tonight meant to disrupt the World Premiere of #<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/videos/what-is-a-woman">WhatIsAWoman</a>,&#8221; Jeremy Boreing, Co-CEO of The Daily Wire, said in a statement. &#8220;A million requests per minute at the peak flooded our system and created challenges for many viewers.&#8221;
&#8220;We are working to address these challenges in real time,&#8221; Boreing added. &#8220;Even so, the premiere had more viewers than any stream in the history of the site. A huge success for an amazing film. Someone doesn&#8217;t want you to see this movie. See it anyway. VOD up now.&#8221;
The attack began shortly after the start of the live-stream of Daily Wire’s Backstage program, which preceded the premiere and featured Daily Wire hosts discussing the making and meaning of the film. Many users encountered difficulty accessing the live-stream due to the malicious event.
Nevertheless, the event was the most trafficked live-stream in Daily Wire history, and the company added more paid subscribers than on any previous day since its founding as eager audiences overcame the challenges to see the feature documentary.

A distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack is a type of coordinated malicious campaign that seeks to shut down a targeted server by flooding the server with extreme levels of traffic coming from bots. The extremely high levels of traffic use up the server’s resources and prevent real users from being able to access it.
The film features The Daily Wire&#8217;s Matt Walsh talking to ordinary citizens, medical professionals, and even African tribesmen in an effort to get answers to a question that has leftists triggered.
“The left will do whatever they can to make sure no one sees this movie,” Walsh said. “They know their ideology is based on lies and their logic is hollow and premiering the movie to a massive online audience will not only be an utter embarrassment to them but will send a message that they will not win this battle.”

What is a Woman Billboard

The Daily Wire Comes Under ‘Sustained DDoS Attack’ Intended To ‘Disrupt’ Premiere Of ‘What Is A Woman?’

What Is A Woman

It started with what seemed like a fairly simple query: What is a woman?
The Daily Wire&#8217;s Matt Walsh soon learned that it was one of the most controversial and vexing questions one can ask in the Western world today — and one not even a future U.S. Supreme Court justice can answer. On June 1, at 8 p.m. ET, The Daily Wire will <a href="http://WhatisaWoman.com">premiere</a> Walsh&#8217;s explosive new documentary, &#8220;What Is A Woman?&#8221; in which he talks to ordinary citizens, medical professionals, and even African tribesmen in an effort to get answers to a question that has leftists triggered.
“The left will do whatever they can to make sure no one sees this movie,” Walsh said. “They know their ideology is based on lies and their logic is hollow and premiering the movie to a massive online audience will not only be an utter embarrassment to them but will send a message that they will not win this battle.”
The documentary will premiere on The Daily Wire’s all-star show &#8220;Backstage,&#8221; featuring Walsh, Ben Shapiro, Jeremy Boreing, Michael Knowles, and Andrew Klavan, who will have a sharp and lively discussion before airing the documentary. Viewers can join the watch party at <a href="http://WhatisaWoman.com">WhatisaWoman.com</a>. Immediately following the movie, Walsh will take questions live from viewers and give his first-hand perspective of the groundbreaking film.

The Daily Wire’s Matt Walsh To Premiere ‘What Is A Woman?’ Documentary In Online Watch Party

The Daily Wire's Matt Walsh To Premiere 'What Is A Woman?' Documentary In Online Watch Party

In a pre-taped video during Saturday’s UFC, Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone introduced a brand new 30-second trailer for “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/videos/terror-on-the-prairie-official-trailer?utm_campaign=totp&amp;utm_medium=editorial&amp;utm_source=ufcarticle">Terror on The Prairie</a>,” The Daily Wire’s upcoming film starring Gina Carano.
The movie — which also stars Cerrone, Nick Searcy, Gabriel-Kane Day Lewis, Samaire Armstrong, and others — is set to debut exclusively on The Daily Wire this summer.
“On the Montana plains, a frontier woman must protect herself against a ruthless gang of outlaws hell-bent on revenge,” reads the IMDb logline for the film.
<iframe loading="lazy" title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Ryfzp5h5HEg" width="720" height="385" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen">﻿</iframe>
“This is the next chapter of my life. UFC and everyone who’s supported me over the years, please follow me into the acting side of the world,” Cerrone said, describing the movie as “a gritty, hell-of-a-badass western.”
Speaking of the film, Carano said:
<blockquote>I’m super excited about my movie, “Terror on the Prairie.” I’m just so grateful to have done this movie with The Daily Wire; this is a movie that’s close to my heart.</blockquote>
“Terror on The Prairie” is The Daily Wire’s fourth feature film, and second produced exclusively for the company. It follows the success of “Run Hide Fight,” “Shut In,” and “The Hyperions,” the latter two of which debuted earlier this year.
