What We Do

Not every company kicks off in a converted garage and expands into one of America’s fastest-growing conservative media outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment - but then again, no other company is the Daily Wire. Built from the ground up by Ben Shapiro and Jeremy Boreing, the Daily Wire started as a side gig and morphed into a political news and commentary powerhouse in just 7 short years. Now, the Daily Wire is producing entertainment content, investigative journalism, multiple chart-topping podcasts, and - you guessed it - some fire memes. And we’re not stopping there. Our team is constantly moving, innovating and growing. We adapt to any and all obstacles with a team of creative geniuses that are all aligned in creating unparalleled content that provides a voice for facts and for freedom. We don't just echo whatever’s trending - we set trends. When you join the Daily Wire team, your finger isn’t just on the pulse. From the studios of CANDACE and The Ben Shapiro Show to the newsroom of some of America’s most influential writers, you are the pulse. And if that interests you, we’re all ears.
