| | | Good morning. The White House is continuing to make good on its promise to raise up digital and independent media, creating new opportunities for media figures outside the legacy outlets. Also, conservative star Megyn Kelly is launching a new media company, with its first show hosts representing a range of ideological viewpoints. | |

| | | 📱 WHAT WE'RE WATCHING | | 🏛️ The White House debuted "Podcast Row" for alternative media. The Trump Administration unveiled a dedicated section for podcasters to stream and record directly from the White House, featuring cabinet officials and senior staff. Some of the included media figures were Natalie Winters from Bannon's War Room, Canadian YouTuber David Freiheit — also known as Viva Frei — and The Daily Wire's Michael Knowles. "Podcast Row" comes as the administration restricts access for certain legacy outlets while embracing digital creators with larger audiences. | 🎙️ Megyn Kelly is launching a new podcast network. Conservative podcast star Megyn Kelly announced the creation of MK Media, a video and audio podcast network featuring journalists and commentators in news and entertainment. The network's first three shows will be hosted by Mark Halperin, Maureen Callahan, and Link Lauren, with more to follow. Kelly's expansion demonstrates the growing influence of conservative and heterodox voices in the creator economy as traditional media continues to lose ground. | 📺 Fox News sees a surge in blue chip advertisers. Major companies, including Amazon, JPMorgan Chase, and Netflix, have flocked to Fox News following Trump's election, with the network claiming 70 percent of cable news viewers. The network's ability to keep attracting top political leaders and maintain high ratings demonstrates that corporate America is increasingly comfortable advertising on conservative platforms. The move reflects a growing recognition that large conservative audiences are too significant — and too profitable — for major brands to ignore. | 💥 A TPUSA chapter president was assaulted on a Texas campus. College student Paige Neumann was attacked at the University of Texas at Dallas by an individual who struck her in the head with a metal bike lock and shattered her phone. The suspect was identified as the transgender-identifying Liam Thanh Tam Nguyen, who has been arrested and jailed. Even in red states, conservative college students remain targets for violence, especially when openly associating with right-of-center organizations like Turning Point USA. |
