Daily Wire Co-CEO Praises ‘Best Team In The Business’ After Battle With Twitter Over ‘What Is A Woman?’

Daily Wire co-CEO Jeremy Boreing called his team “the best in the business” amid a battle with Twitter, which first canceled a deal to stream Matt Walsh’s hit documentary “What is a Woman?” and then stifled the film’s visibility, only to later reverse course and allow the film to air unrestricted.

Boreing joined hosts Ben Shapiro, Matt Walsh, Michael Knowles, Candace Owens, Andrew Klavan, and Dr. Jordan B. Peterson on a Twitter Space Thursday night to celebrate the one-year anniversary of “What is a Woman?,” the film Boreing called the “most successful piece of content” produced by The Daily Wire. As Boreing and his team awaited updates on the film’s status, he praised those at The Daily Wire for staying in the fight.

“A terrible day, but nice to be in the fox hole with the best team in the business fighting for what we believe in,” Boreing tweeted along with a photo of Daily Wire hosts and employees who were joined by Dr. Jordan B. Peterson.

Boreing revealed in a Twitter thread Thursday morning that Twitter canceled a deal with the conservative media company to stream the film for free on the social media platform due to “misgendering.”

“After reviewing the film, though, Twitter let us know that not only could we no longer purchase the package they offered, they would no longer provide us any support and would actually limit the reach of the film and label it as ‘hateful conduct’ because of ‘misgendering.’” The Daily Wire co-CEO said in a Tweet thread explaining Twitter’s reversal.

“Specifically: In the film, a father refers to his 14-year-old daughter as ‘her,’ and a store owner uses the ‘wrong’ pronoun in a confrontation with a trans person,” Boreing continued.

A few hours before the documentary’s release on Twitter, Elon Musk took to the platform to insist that the censorship had been a mistake, yet the film was saddled with restrictions when it aired. Early Friday, Twitter’s tag restricting the visibility of “What is a Woman?” was removed, allowing Twitter users to like and retweet the documentary, and Musk tweeted out the film to his 140 million followers.

The groundbreaking documentary released last summer was watched by people in over 70 countries, even as legacy media reviewers ignored the film and its effect on the culture. Soon after its release, “What is a Woman?” became the most-watched movie at home, according to Rotten Tomatoes, which also showed that audiences scored the film with a 97% rating.

Taylor Swift Declared Second Richest Self-Made Woman In Music, But Nowhere Near Top Spot

Taylor Swift was named the second richest self-made woman in music on Thursday, but she’s nowhere near overtaking the person in first place.

The 33-year-old pop singer has an estimated net worth of $740 million, according to a report from Forbes published June 1. This sum helped her beat out runners-up in the music category, including Madonna ($580 million net worth) and Beyoncé ($540 million net worth).

Swift is also the 34th richest woman on the list overall. Diane Hendricks of ABC Supply, the largest wholesale distributor of roofing materials in the U.S., currently occupies the top spot with a net worth of $15 billion.

Swift is currently performing across the United States on her Eras Tour, which helped inflate her massive net worth. Tickets sold out quickly during presale and crashed the Ticketmaster website. Per CBS News, “Eras” could become the highest-grossing concert tour of all time and could increase Swift’s income by about $500 million.

But crossing the billion-dollar threshold won’t even be enough for Swift to secure the top spot. That title belongs to Rihanna, who currently has an estimated net worth of $1.4 billion.

Rihanna’s wealth comes from a combination of pop music and her extremely successful Fenty Beauty cosmetics company. The 35-year-old singer is the 20th richest self-made woman overall, according to Forbes.

Rihanna, who is expecting her second baby with rapper boyfriend A$AP Rocky and recently showed off a $600,000 toe ring, is a popular recording artist by any measure. But Swift’s fans have a reputation for going the extra mile to show their devotion.

For example, concertgoers have been bragging on TikTok about wearing adult diapers to Swift’s shows so they don’t risk missing any of her songs while waiting in line for the restroom, as The Daily Wire previously reported. Others claim they’ve experienced “amnesia” after the concert because they were so thrilled to finally see the singer perform.

“I went to the Arlington show a few weeks back and I honestly cannot remember most of the concert,” one fan posted on Reddit.  “I know I was there, but it feels like it was a dream,” another said.
