The Daily Calleris aright-wingnews and opinion website based inWashington, D.C.[7]

It was founded by formerFox NewshostTucker Carlsonand political punditNeil Patelin 2010. Launched as a "conservativeanswer toThe Huffington Post",The Daily Callerquadrupled its audience and became profitable by 2012, surpassing several rival websites by 2013. In 2020, the site was described byThe New York Timesas having been "a pioneer in online conservative journalism".[8]The Daily Calleris a member of the White Housepress pool.[9]

The Daily Callerhas published false stories and declined to correct them when they were shown to be untrue.[16]The website has published articles that contradict thescientific consensus on climate change.In September 2018, the website cut ties with an editor linked towhite supremacistcauses.[17][18]The website has responded to challenges to its stories in various ways, in some cases defending their claims, and in others expressing regret for story headlines or content;[19]and on at least one occasion, when pointed out by other news outlets, the website has repudiated a past article writer due to support of extremist views.[17]

In June 2020, Carlson left the site, with Patel buying out Carlson's stake to become majority owner.[20][8]Foster Friess,a major conservative donor also known for being an investment manager, remained a partial owner until his death in 2021.[8][21]

History[edit]

The Daily Callerwas founded byTucker CarlsonandNeil Patel.After raising $3 million in funding from businessmanFoster Friess,the website was launched on January 11, 2010. The organization began with a reporting staff of 21 in its Washington office. It was launched as a "conservative answer toThe Huffington Post",similarly featuring sections in broad range of subjects beyond politics. WhenThe Daily Callerlaunched in 2010, it became the third Washington DC based news site besidesTalking Points MemoandPolitico.[22]

In a 2010 interview with theColumbia Journalism Review,Carlson describedThe Daily Caller's prospective audience as "[p]eople who are distrustful of conventional news organizations". Carlson said "the coverage of theTea Partyblows me away by its stupidity. The assumption of almost everyone I know who covers politics for the networks or daily newspapers is: they're allbirthers,they're all crazy, they're upset aboutfluoride in the water,probably racist. And those assumptions have prevented good journalism from taking place ".[23]

By late 2012, the site had quadrupled its page view and total audience and had become profitable without ever buying an advertisement for itself.[24]

Vince Coglianese replaced Carlson as editor-in-chief in 2016 when theTucker Carlson Tonightshow began on Fox.[25]Carlson departed the site in June 2020 to increase his focus on his new show.[26]Patel brought in Omeed Malik as a new partner; a former hedge fund managing director andMuslim AmericanDemocrat,he was a donor toDonald Trump's2016 presidential campaign.[27]The Daily Callerbecame a minority-owned and -run company thereafter.[28]Friess remained a partial owner until his death in 2021.[8][21]

In 2020,The New York Timesnoted that "several former Daily Caller reporters occupy prominent roles in Washington journalism", specifically notingCNNWhite House correspondentKaitlan CollinsandDaily MailreporterDavid Martosko.[8]

Political stances[edit]

When it first launched in January 2010,Mercedes Bunz,writing forThe Guardian,saidThe Daily Callerwas "setting itself up to be the conservative answer toThe Huffington Post".According to Bunz, a year before the website launched, Carlson promoted it as" a new political website leaning more to the right thanPoliticoandTalkingPointsMemo".However, at launch, he wrote a letter to readers that said it was not going to be aright-wingsite.[29]"We're not going to suck up to people in power, the way so many have", Carlson said.[30]During a January 2010 interview withPolitico,Carlson saidThe Daily Callerwas not going to be tied to his personal political ideologies and that he wanted it to be "breaking stories of importance".[31]

In aWashington Postarticle aboutThe Daily Caller's launch,Howard Kurtzwrote, "[Carlson's] partner is Neil Patel, a formerDick Cheneyaide. His opinion editor is Moira Bagley, who spent 2008 as theRepublican National Committee's press secretary. And his $3 million in funding comes from Wyoming financier Foster Friess, a big-time GOP donor. But Carlson insists this won't be a right-wing site ". Kurtz quoted Carlson as saying," We're not enforcing any kind of ideological orthodoxy on anyone ".[32]

In an interview withThe New York Times,Carlson said that the vast majority of traditional reporting comes from a liberal point of view and calledThe Daily Caller's reporting "the balance against the rest of the conventional press".[24]In a 2012Washingtonianarticle, Tom Bartlett said Carlson and Patel developedThe Daily Calleras "a conservative news site in the mold of the liberalHuffington Postbut with more firearms coverage and fewer nipple-slip slide shows ".[33]

In 2019, theColumbia Journalism ReviewdescribedThe Daily Calleras "right wing",[34]a description also used byBusiness Insider,[35]Snopes,[36]andHarvard University'sBerkman Klein Center for Internet & Society.[37]The Guardianin April 2019 saidThe Daily Callerwas known for pro-Trumpcontent.[38]In 2020, Austrian social scientistChristian Fuchsof theUniversity of WestminsterdescribedThe Daily Callerasalt-right.[39]A 2021Politicoarticle describedThe Daily Calleras "mainstream right", as opposed to more "conspiratorial fringe" outlets such asOne America News Network.[40]

Climate change[edit]

The Daily Callerhas published articles that dispute thescientific consensus on climate change.According toSciencemagazine,The Daily Caller's "climate reporting focuses on doubt and highlights data that suggests climate concerns from the world's leading science agencies and organizations are incorrect".[41]In 2011, theDaily Callerpublished a false story claiming that theUnited States Environmental Protection Agency(EPA) was going to spend $21 billion per year to hire 230,000 staff to regulate greenhouse gas emissions; at the time, the EPA had 17,000 staff and a total budget of $8.7 billion.[42][43][44][45]The story went viral in right-wing media,[42]and Republican politicians repeated the story.[44]Other news outlets noted that the story was false, butThe Daily Callerstood by the story.[42]Adweekreported that the decision of David Martosko, executive editor atThe Daily Caller,to stand by the story caused dismay among some the website's staff, who believed the decision undermined the credibility of the outlet.[46]

In 2017,The Daily Callerpublished a story falsely claiming that a "peer-reviewed study" by "two scientists and a veteran statistician" found that recent years have not been the warmest ever.[47]The alleged "study" was a PDF file on aWordPressblog, and was neither peer-reviewed nor published in a scientific journal.[47]Also in 2017,The Daily Calleruncritically published a bogusDaily Mailstory which claimed that theNational Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration(NOAA) manipulated data to make climate change appear worse; at the same time, legitimate news outlets debunked theDaily Mailstory,[48][49]as didMedia Matters.[50]Also in 2017,The Daily Callerpublished a story claiming that a study found no evidence of accelerating temperatures over a 23-year period, whichclimate scientistsdescribed as a misleading story.[51]In 2016,The Daily Callerpublished a story claiming that climate scientistMichael Mann(director of the Earth System Science Center atPennsylvania State University) had asserted that data are unnecessary to measure climate change; Mann described the story as "egregiously false".[52]In 2015,The Daily Callerwrote that NOAA "fiddle[d]" with data when the agency published a report concluding that there was no global warming hiatus.[53][54]

In 2018, PresidentDonald Trumpdismissed aNational Climate Assessmentreport by the EPA about theimpact of climate changein the United States, citing aDaily Callerstory that theObama Administrationhad pushed the authors of the report to focus on the worst-case scenario.FactCheck.orgfound no evidence for the claims made inThe Daily Caller's story, and that the EPA report focused both on lower and higher scenarios and largely looked at climate change impacts that had already occurred. FactCheck.org noted that the report underwent multiple reviews, both internally and externally, and that the report was available for public review for a period of three months.The Daily Callercited as evidence for its claims a memo that allegedly showed that the Obama administration pushed the authors of the report to include worst-case scenarios; FactCheck.org noted the memo "does not show that the Obama administration pushed for certain scenarios".[55]

Journalistic standards[edit]

Fact-checkers have frequently debunkedDaily Callerstories.[38] According to the 2018 book,Network Propaganda: Manipulation, Disinformation, and Radicalization in American Politics,written by Harvard University scholarsYochai Benkler,Robert Faris and Hal Roberts,The Daily Callerfails to followjournalistic normsin its reporting.[3]: 14 According to theEncyclopædia Britannica,The Daily Caller"descended into extremism and sensationalism, publishing unsupported and frequently vulgar attacks on Democratic leaders, false criticisms of liberal causes, and popular conspiracy theories. The site also became known for its promotion of racist and sexist stereotypes".[56]

Some scientific studies have identifiedThe Daily Calleras afake news website.[57][58][59]In an October 2018Simmons Researchsurvey of 38 news organizations,The Daily Callerwas ranked the least-trusted news organization by Americans, underneathBreitbart News,theDaily Kos,thePalmer Report,Occupy DemocratsandInfoWars.[60]

In 2019,The Daily Caller,along withOne America News NetworkandThe Gateway Pundit,were categorized as unreliable sources of information by theWikipedia community,[61]with the consensus being thatThe Daily Caller"publishes false or fabricated information".[62]

Specific incidents[edit]

In 2011,The Daily Callerwas the first news outlet to disseminate aProject Veritas videoby conservative provocateurJames O'Keefewhich purportedly showed an NPR fundraiser deriding Republicans. The video was later proven to have been misleadingly edited.[10]In February 2012,The Daily Callerwas criticized for an "investigative series" of articles co-authored by Carlson, purporting to be an insiders' exposé ofMedia Matters for America(MMfA), a liberal watchdog group that monitors and scrutinizes conservative media outlets, and its founderDavid Brock.[63]Citing "current and former" MMfA employees, "friends" of Brock's and a "prominent liberal", the article characterized MMfA as having "an atmosphere of tension and paranoia" and portrayed Brock as "erratic, unstable and disturbing", who "struggles with mental illness", in fear of "right-wing assassins", a regular cocaine user and would "close [local bars] and party till six in the morning".Reutersmedia critic and libertarianJack ShafercriticizedThe Daily Callerpiece as "anonymously sourced crap", adding "Daily Calleris attacking Media Matters with bad journalism and lame propaganda ".[64]

In August 2018,The Daily Callerran a story alleging that a Chinese-owned company had hacked then-Secretary of StateHillary Clinton's private email server and successfully obtained nearly all of her emails, citing only, "two sources briefed on the matter". Trump retweeted the allegations made inThe Daily Caller's unsubstantiated reporting. TheFBIstated that there was no evidence to support the story.[65][66]In January 2019,The Daily Callerpublished a story with the misleading headline, "Here's The Photo Some Described as a Nude Selfie ofAlexandria Ocasio-Cortez".The photo was not of Ocasio-Cortez, however, and she condemnedThe Daily Caller's action as "completely disgusting behavior".[14]The Daily Callerapologized for the headline and changed it.[19]The Daily Callersaid that the content of the story was not unlike stories published byViceandThe Huffington Post.[67]Vicehad in fact published an article debunking the claim that the photo was of Ocasio-Cortez.[68]

Debunked prostitution allegations regarding Bob Menendez[edit]

In November 2012,The Daily Callerposted interviews with two women claiming that New JerseyDemocraticSenatorBob Menendezhad paid them for sex while he was a guest of a campaign donor.[69]The allegation came five days before the2012 United States Senate election in New Jersey.News organizations such asABC News,which had also interviewed the women,The New York Times,and theNew York Postdeclined to publish the allegations, viewing them as unsubstantiated and lacking credibility.[11][70][71]Subsequently, one of the women who accused Menendez stated that she had been paid to falsely implicate the senator and had never met him.[70][72]Menendez's office described the allegations as "manufactured" by a right-wing blog as a politically motivated smear.[12]

A few weeks later, police in the Dominican Republic announced that three women had claimed they were paid $300–425 each to lie about having had sex with Menendez,[73]and alleged that the women had been paid to lie about Menendez by an individual claiming to work forThe Daily Caller.The website denied this allegation, stating: "At no point did any money change hands betweenThe Daily Callerand any sources or individuals connected with this investigation ".[74]Describing what it saw as the unraveling ofThe Daily Caller'"scoop", thePoynter Institutewrote: "The Daily Callerstands by its reports, though apparently doesn't feel the need toprove its allegations right".[75]

Debunked conspiracy theories about Imran Awan[edit]

In February 2017,PoliticoandBuzzFeedreported that Capitol Police accused five IT staffers forDemocratsin theU.S. House of Representativesof trying to steal House computer equipment and violating House security policies.[76][77][78]CongresswomanDebbie Wasserman Schultzwas one of several House members who did not terminate the suspected staffers after the criminal complaints.[79]In July 2017, one of the accused staffers,Imran Awan,was arrested for making a false statement on a bank loan application.[80][81]After his arrest, Wasserman Schultz's office fired Awan.[82]

The Daily Callerpushed conspiracy theories about Awan,[83][84]seeking to tie Awan to many alleged criminal activities, including unauthorized access to government servers.[85]The reporter behind the coverage of Awan told Fox News that the affair was "straight out ofJames Bond".[85]An 18-month investigation by federal prosecutors found no evidence of wrongdoing in Awan's work in the House and no support for the conspiracy theories about Awan. In the announcement of the conclusion of the investigation, investigators rebuked a litany of right-wing conspiracy theories about Awan.[83][84]

Controversies[edit]

The Daily Callerhas been involved in several controversial incidents. In March 2015,The Daily CallercolumnistMickey Kausquit after editorTucker Carlsonrefused to run a column critical ofFox Newscoverage of the immigration policy debate.[86]Carlson, who worked for Fox News at the time, reportedly did not wantThe Daily Callerpublishing criticism of a firm that employed him.[87]

In January 2017,The Daily Callerposted a video which encouraged violence against protesters.[88][89][90][91]The footage showed a car driving into demonstrators, with the headline "Here's A Reel of Cars Plowing Through Protesters Trying to Block the Road". The video clip was set to a cover of theLudacrissong "Move Bitch".[88]The video clip drew attention in August 2017 after a white supremacistmurdered one counter-protester and injured 35 moreby intentionally driving a car into them at the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.[88]After the video attracted attention,The Daily Callerdeleted it from its website.[88][91]

In 2018,The Daily Callerwas the first news outlet to report onStefan Halper,a confidential FBI source, and his interactions with Trump campaign advisorsCarter PageandGeorge Papadopoulos.Papadopoulos later pleaded guilty to lying to theFBIabout campaign matters.[92]Page became the subject of surveillance warrants issued by theUnited States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Courtregarding contacts with Russian intelligence officials.[93]Other news outlets confirmed Halper's identity but did not report his identity because US intelligence officials warned that it would endanger him and his contacts.[94][95][96]

In 2020, duringThe Daily Caller''s coverage of protests inLouisville, Kentuckyrelated to theshooting of Breonna Taylorand subsequent verdict on the police involved, two of their reporters were arrested and held overnight. Co-founder Patel threatened to take legal action against theLouisville Metro Police Department,citingfreedom of the press.[97][98]

2016 presidential election conspiracy theories[edit]

Daily Callerjournalist Stephanie Hamill interviewing Republican CongressmanAndy Biggsin 2020.

According to a study byHarvard University'sBerkman Klein Center for Internet and Society,The Daily Callerwas among the most popular right-wing news sites during the2016 United States presidential election.The study found thatThe Daily Callerprovided "amplification and legitimation" for "the most extreme conspiracy sites", such asTruthfeed,InfoWars,The Gateway PunditandConservative Treehouse.[99][100][101]The Daily Calleralso "employedanti-immigrantnarratives that echoed sentiments from the alt-right andwhite nationalistsbut without the explicitly racist and pro-segregation language ".[100]

In one of its most frequently shared stories,The Daily Callerfalsely asserted that Morocco'sKing Mohammed VIflewBill Clintonon a private jet, and that this had been omitted from theClinton Foundation's tax disclosures.[100]The Daily Calleralso made the "utterly unsubstantiated and unsourced claim" thatHillary ClintoninstructedEnvironmental Protection Agencyhead Lisa Jackson "to try to shut down Mosaic Fertilizer, described as America's largest phosphate mining company, in exchange for a $15 million donation to the Clinton Foundation from King Mohammed VI of Morocco, ostensibly to benefit Morocco's state-owned phosphate company".[100]

2017 allegation of non-profit abuse[edit]

According to Callum Borchers ofThe Washington Post,The Daily Callerhas "a peculiar business structure that enables it to increase revenue while reducing its tax obligation".[102]The organization, a for-profit company, does this by relying on its charity arm,The Daily CallerNews Foundation, to create the majority of its news content.[103]

Lisa Graves of theCenter for Media and Democracyargues, "It's a huge rip-off for taxpayers ifThe Daily CallerNews Foundation is receiving revenue that it doesn't pay taxes on, to produce stories that are used by the for-profit enterprise, which then makes money on the stories through ads ". Benjamin M. Leff ofAmerican Universitywrites, "But the fact that it also provides its content to other publishers for free is evidence that it is not operated for the private benefit of the for-profit, even if the for-profit is the dominant user of its content".[104]

Ties to white supremacists in 2017–2018[edit]

Scott Greer was deputy editor and contributor atThe Daily Caller.After his departure in June 2018, it was revealed that he published articles espousingwhite nationalist,racistanti-black andantisemiticviews under apseudonymin white supremacist publications.[17]In September 2018,The Atlanticreported that Greer had written pieces under the pseudonym "Michael McGregor" in thewhite supremacistpublicationRadix Journalin 2014[18]and 2015. In articles forRadix Journal,Greer expressedwhite nationalistviews, as well as racistanti-blackandantisemiticviews. In his emails and messages, he exchangedanti-Christianand antisemitic comments, with colleagues includingRichard Spencer.[17]After being confronted with his past white supremacist writings, Greer resigned from any affiliation withThe Daily Caller.[17]In 2017 it was revealed that Greer had ties to members of the white nationalist movement, including friendships with Devin Saucier, assistant toJared TaylorofAmerican Renaissance,and anti-immigrant activist Marcus Epstein ofVDARE,who had pleaded guilty to assaulting an African-American woman two years prior to the beginning of his relationship with Greer.[105]Greer had later deleted parts of hisFacebookpage, but is seen photographed with white nationalists such as Spencer, Tim Dionisopoulos, theWolves of Vinland,and also appears wearing clothes belonging to the groupYouth for Western Civilization.[106][105]The Daily Callersubsequently stated about why he had not been fired in 2017: "We had two choices: Fire a young man because of some photos taken of him at metal shows in college, or take his word. We chose to trust him. Now, if what you allege is accurate, we know that trust was a mistake, we know he lied to us. We won't publish him, anyone in these circles, or anyone who thinks like them. People who associate with these losers have no business writing for our company".[17]

Prior to June 2017,[107][18]The Daily Callerhad published freelance articles byJason Kessler,[105]a white supremacist who organized theUnite the Right rallyin August 2017 inCharlottesville, Virginia.[108][109][36]That rally took place while Kessler was suspended fromThe Daily Caller,afterProPublicahad found that an article he had written forThe Daily Callerabout a previous torchlight rally in Charlottesville in May 2017 had not disclosed that he made a speech at the event praising fascist and racist groups.[110][36]After the suspension,Daily Callerexecutive editor Paul Conner defended Kessler's article as accurate.[110][111]The Daily Callerdeleted all of Kessler's articles from its website in August 2017 after the Unite the Right rally, which he had organized with Spencer and others, turned into deadly violence.[36]

Until 2017,[18]the website had also published pieces byPeter Brimelow,founder of the white supremacist website VDARE,[105][112]and by David Hilton, an anti-Semite who has pushed conspiracy theories that Israel was behind the9/11 attacks.In his articles forThe Daily Caller,Hilton promoted anti-Semitic conspiracy theories aboutGeorge Soros,as well as conspiracy theories about "Cultural Marxism".[18]

TheSouthern Poverty Law Center(SPLC) reported in 2017 thatThe Daily Callerhad a "white nationalist problem", citing contributions by Kessler, Brimelow, Greer, and Ilana Mercer, whose writing onsupposed racially motivated crime in South Africawas also published on the white nationalist websiteAmerican Renaissancethe same day it appeared inThe Daily Caller.[106]The SPLC retracted a claim about aDaily Callerreporter, Richard Pollock, stating that except for speaking at a 2017 event of the H.L. Mencken Club, considered a white nationalist group, "there is no evidence to suggest Mr. Pollock is otherwise a white nationalist";[106]in 2018, according to the SPLC, Pollock cancelled his scheduled attendance at the same group's event.[113]
