What would have happened if he signed the 'terms sheet'?

The testimony of everyone who works at Daily Wire seems to be that Boering makes a hard bargain but that they ultimately get what they're want contractually and are very happy with how they're treated

Is that why Crowder counter-offered them, and they then slammed the door in his face and said "nope we're done, don't even bother talking to us again"?

They didn't even attempt a second offer. Their ONLY offer that they accepted was the dogshit rookie garbage they put in front of him.

What would have happened if he signed the 'terms sheet'?

As far as I know, based on what I've heard, absolutely nothing. It's not legally binding.

Is that why Crowder counter-offered them, and they then slammed the door in his face and said "nope we're done, don't even bother talking to us again"?

They didn't even attempt a second offer. Their ONLY offer that they accepted was the dogshit rookie garbage they put in front of him.

From Boering's perspective, Crowder rejected the offer, acted insulted, and demanded they send him a completely new terms sheet with a significantly larger dollar figure (despite him saying it has nothing to do with money, if you really believe that) without red-lining the previous terms or even just talking to Boering about it reasonably. Instead he told Boering, the CEO of a much larger and more successful company, that DW's business model was garbage. It's at this point that DW threw up his hands and they parted ways.

By the way, you can listen to Boering's perspective at timestamp 44:10 of Boering's response video.

You can choose to trust Crowder or you can choose to trust Boering, but either way we don't really know what really went down between the two of them. What we do know are the actions both have taken publicly and what those associated with Crowder and Daily Wire are saying, and all the evidence in this case points to Crowder being in the wrong here, if for no other reason than airing his dirty laundry and breaking the trust of people he supposedly was friends with. This is true EVEN IF Boering's actions were insulting and underhanded. Crowder handled it poorly either way.

I keep telling people, Crowder is not the bastion of integrity people think he is.
