As The Walt Disney Company digs in its heels on injecting more “queerness” and LGBTQ+ characters and ideologies into their children’s programming despite the uproar from its fan base, a new company seems keen to take advantage of the situation and rise to be the legacy conglomerate’s new entertainment rival.

Jeremy Boreing, co-CEO of The Daily Wire, announced at the company’s town hall that an investment of $100 million is being made into live-action and children’s entertainment over the next three years, with the first pieces of content being made available to Daily Wire subscribers by Spring, 2023.
“Americans are tired of giving their money to woke corporations who hate them,” said Boreing. “They’re tired of giving their money to woke media companies who want to indoctrinate their children with radical race and gender theory. But they want to do more than just cancel them. They want alternatives. The Daily Wire is giving them those alternatives.”
The Daily Wire admitted that the announcement was originally planned for November 2022 but pushed it up several months after leaked footage showed Disney executives touting their “not-at-all-secret gay agenda.”
“Disney was once a reliable source of wholesome and innocent entertainment for children,” The Daily Wire said in a press release. “But controversy after controversy has roiled the network over the last several weeks — from CEO Bob Chapek’s public condemnation of a Florida bill protecting young children from inappropriate conversations about sexuality in schools to leaked videos of Disney employees bluntly stating their agenda to promote radical gender ideology to their young viewers — leaving parents fearful that the content their kids are consuming is brainwashing them at best and endangering them at worst.”

The Daily Wire and its founder Ben Shapiro have already stepped up to challenge Disney’s power by casting Gina Carano for their own movies after the Mouse House fired her from Star Wars: The Mandalorian due to an Instagram Story post warning followers of totalitarian regimes. The MMA fighter turned actress played the New Republic shock trooper Cara Dune.

Only time will tell if Daily Wire’s endeavors prove competitive and if Disney will continue down the woke path after the leaked footage caused so much outrage.
