They run ads all day long.


What kind of ads? If their ad slots are pennies on the dollar because of no demand that isn’t a great revenue source.

Do you want them to produce better content? New creative projects? They have to have money to do that. You want them making money.

Conservatives always miss the mark here. It takes money to compete in the entertainment market.

People bitch at the DailyWire for putting stuff behind a paywall, but subscriber revenue allows them to make new projects like Bentkey, Convicting a Murder, What is a Woman, Etc.

Most people understand how business works, you aren’t some kind of genius.

They went years without it and got the biggest boost of watchers from the Tucker Carlson firing. Why now? And no, I don’t need better content. What they currently do is just fine.

The better question you should be asking is what am I paying Netflix. That’s an argument to be made.

Quite honestly, NO, I don't want a news channel making "creative projects" and such.

I don't flip on the news for entertainment, nor do I want to.

Seems like a lost concept now, but I just want coverage of big or newsworthy events, without opinions or stuff inserted.
