Candace Owens Out at Daily Wire
The Facts
Daily Wire co-founder Jeremy Boreing on Friday posted to X, formerly Twitter, that his media outlet has cut ties with conservative commentator Candace Owens. Boreing didn't provide any other details.
Owens also posted to X, saying "the rumors are true — I am finally free." Her post then said people who'd like to support her work should go to her website.
The Spin
Narrative A
It was only a matter of time before Owens parted ways with Daily Wire. Eventually, every media outlet has a limit to how much backlash to controversial statements it can take. She probably should've been ousted after her numerous racist and xenophobic comments, and her recent antisemitic rhetoric was the final straw.
Narrative B
The Daily Wire claims to be a bastion for free speech, but clearly, it's not above regulating speech when it conflicts with the opinions of its other employees. Owens has always been against US involvement in foreign wars and her denunciation of US involvement in the conflict in Gaza fits that pattern. Her separation from the outlet was done in bad faith.
