"Crowder clearly struck a nerve with them."
Yeah. I think a lot of DW folks like and respect Jeremy Boering, hardball negotiations and all, and so are springing to his defense just like Hambly here is springing to Crowder's defense. Nice to see loyalty means something these days. Above and beyond that, though, I suspect they would LOVE to be able to stick it to YouTube, if they thought they could.
As things stand, they don't think they can, and yeah I think that strikes a nerve with them. That's their risk appetite though, and honestly there's a place for that. Well, Steven has staked out the position that there needs to be an edgier Conservative company out there, willing to take these risks based on principle. Good for him, and I hope that he manages to make that work.
Daily Wire is basically setting itself up as AAA bonds, and Crowder is setting himself up as Venture Capital. There's no reason not to root for them both, I just hope they can stop being a**holes to each other for a while, and let things cool down as they each settle into their side of the market. There's room for them both.
