Would be hilarious if this picked up on the right and they all decoupled themselves from the government to prove they're the real capitalist. Too bad ben doesn't seem to have that much influence anymore.
his funding is from fracking billionaires, mainly, so their goal is to gut the epa and environmental regulations generally. i guess he has enough of an audience to keep funding him, but i wonder if they've started pulling tighter on the purse strings lately.
They probably could be profitable without their sugar daddy. But they would have to make serious cutbacks, like they couldn't pay all the talent millions of dollars a year. It would actually have to worry about staff as well, they couldn't just rely on overpaying people for a year before they quit in disgust at being a part of such a heinous organization that is basically against everyone except extreme right wing religious positions.
So basically daily wire would implode without the buckets of cash they are handed. Oh also they couldn't afford to buy shit loads of ad space across all of social media if they were limited by subscriber donations. Which means they couldn't find more people watch because meema isn't seeing ad clips on Facebook video anymore.

They did try that libertarian township but they couldn't agree on garbage disposal and were invaded by bears.
The bears won.

that wouldn't even be his idea that's just Galt's Gulch
Why do you say this? All of these culture warrior ghouls are backed by some of the richest people in America
Not monetary influence but cultural. A lot of his base became more radical and moved on to something else so he's just a drop in the whole sphere.
