Daily Wire seems salty for some reason

Crowder comes across as an asshole as far as disposition goes, but Daily Wire is the type to knife you in the back while having a "friendly" hand shake. Crowder probably wouldn't have been able to break this story if he were under the DW either. That contract would have made him eat a huge amount of risk for breaking a story like this.
Considering YT is apparently going to censor this story, yes. He just got a warning from youtube about posting a video about this
Yep. The whole point of those contracts is to boost the power of social media censorship. The DW gets boosted by Facebook so there appears to be a relationship there. DW reeks of being an intelligence asset. We know Facebook is in deep with feds. DW also got access to Netanyahu for softball interviews.
Shapiro is a Mossad asset. That gets you a lot of friends, at the price of being required to attack anyone who turns Mossad down.
I would bet that Crowder was as much of an asshole to the Mossad agent who tried to bring him into the fold as he apparently is to everyone else.
Shapiro was purely complimentary to Crowder on this story. It's Boring whose the whiny prick.
I'm so confused why crowder and his fans (I used to be one) keep talking about how that terms sheet (not even a contract) was bad because it said if daily wire lost revenue then Crowder would also lose revenue. If he gets kicked off of platforms and can't get as revenue from them DW loses money. Why would crowder still receive the same amount of money then? If crowder didn't like the terms sheet he could have negotiated, but instead he just threw a fit. Boering even said it was just hastily put together as something generic and was the first stepping stone for negotiations. If crowder wanted he should have just negotiated a smaller flat rate regardless of cancelations and demonitizations, but then get a % of profit sharing so when he does better he gets more money. Instead crowder decided to record his friend and release it to everyone to try and make himself look like the only real conservative.
Because it most likely wouldn't be his fault. Losing money for getting canceled incentivizes you to play it safe and disincentivizes truthful coverage. DW knows the score when they're hiring a conservative podcaster, so they should be willing to eat the risk.
This was a dumb move by Crowder to burn the bridge without even making a counteroffer.
Notice that we criticize the DW, and a handshake shows up for no other reason than to defend it. That account talking to you is 2 years old but has no history outside of this thread. That's not suspicious at all!
They're everywhere
Not only that but if he got canceled on a few places (big tech coordinates) the contract fines would be so big DW would be paying him "negative" salary all while he still has the cost to produce the show.
AND Daily Wire could cause him to be canceled at any time to making him run promotional content that would get his show canceled.
(((Melvar52))) knows this or should know this.
When somebody makes you an abusive offer it's not a mistake to not make a counter offer. Don't put your dick in crazy, don't work for DW.
The YouTube video on the manifesto already got pulled. If he had signed that would have been a penalty for telling the truth
That's absurd, I didn't know that.
Why the fuck would you make a counter offer to a slave contract? The idea of presenting that offer in the first place is denigrating
The thing is DW already has content on YouTube that they themselves censor because it still gets them money and can get part of their message out. They then plug their content that is behind the paywall that is uncensored. Michael Knowles littlerally bleeps every time he says trans when they put their content on YouTube. DW got this idea from Crowder that wouldn't say stuff that would get him kicked off YouTube but then he would say at the end of every show if you want to hear our uncensored content come to mug club and YouTube you can piss off.
They are doing the exact same thing, but somehow DW is the bad guy?
So you're trying to say that Crowder is a hypocrite because he self-censors? That seems to be relevant but it's actually not: the point is you should not penalize a creator for getting canceled. That implies the cancellation could be legitimate when the whole sum of our experience proves they never are.
If you don't like the risk then just offer them less money from the get go. Dangle a higher salary over people's heads and I promise they will try even harder to avoid getting canceled. Guess what happens to their content?
Lol bro a term sheet is a contract offer. Where'd you get your law degree?
