    • Overall, we rate The Daily Wire borderline questionable and Right Biased based on story selection and editorial positions that align with the conservative right. We also rate them Mixed for factual reporting due to several failed fact checks. If the Daily Wire fails, another fact check will be moved to the Questionable list.


    History


    The Daily Wire is a politically conservative American news and opinion website founded in 2015 by conservative political commentator Ben Shapiro, who currently serves as Editor-in-Chief. Michael Knowles is managing editor, and Jeremy Boreing is Chief Operating Officer.


    Funded by / Ownership

    Forward Publishing LLC owns the Daily Wire. Forward Publishing is owned and managed by the billionaire Wilks Brothers who made their money through the fossil fuel industry with their company Frac Tech. The Wilks brothers are also a part of the extreme Christian right who interpret the bible literally. The website is funded through a subscription and advertising model.


    Analysis / Bias

    The Daily Wire presents news with a hyper-partisan conservative bias in reporting and wording. For example, headlines are usually sensational and utilize strong emotional language such as this: Democrats Boo God. Then They Quote The Bible To Attack Trump. Virtually every story favors the right and denigrates the left. However, the Daily Wire does not always report favorably on President Trump and his policies. When it comes to science, they often do not align with climate scientists’ consensus that humans are a significant factor in climate change.


    So cnn . Msnbcpms . NYT. WaPo et al are the only acceptable news sites?

    You are free to post their reviews anytime. Expect the source of biased claims like the above to be shown for where they came from.

    A rating scale that fails to base its ratings on quantifiable data is worthless. Van Zandt's ratings are worthless except to tell you his opinion.

    I don't know if the story is true or not, but it fits the mold of what Obama did. He dropped the sanctions and sent over a bunch of money.

    So, be honest, whose money did he send them? Can you be honest?

    I have no problem being honest or answering questions. So, I'll answer honestly and let's see if you can return the favor. Deal?

    It was Iran's money that he sent back. However, he didn't have to do it.


    Question. Under the deal Obama made with Iran there were places that were off-limits to the inspectors. Moreover, Iran has a long history that proves it can't be trusted. Did Obama make a bad deal? Or was it good in your eyes? Please elaborate.

    A deal needed to be made and I believe it was the best possible deal. Was it perfect? Probably not. Was it necessary? Yes.
    Also, Iran seemed to be following the deal until the US reneged.

    Let me tell you a story about a frog and a scorpion.

    The scorpion was sitting on the bank of the river and noticed a frog at the edge of the water and asked him if he would give a a ride on his back to the other side of the river.

    The frog told the scorpion no and told him that he will sting him and he would die.

    The scorpion responded and promised the frog that he would not sting him because the frog would be doing him a big favor.

    The frog finally agrees to give him a ride.

    When they got half way across the river the scorpion stings the frog.

    The frog says: "oh, I'm gonna die. Why did you sting me?"

    The scorpion responds: "You knew what I was before you agreed to give me a ride."
