Traditional comedy shows are now preachy and smug. It’s created a market for something new.  

“Leftists have become so…religiously zealous about their beliefs,” says Kyle Mann, Editor-in Chief of @The Babylon Bee. “We find that comedy is funnier when you just put comedy first.”

The Babylon Bee is a Christian conservative comedy group. Their website now gets more views than the Onion. The establishment doesn’t like that. It often “fact checks” their satire. Twitter kicked them off Twitter. I’ll show you comedy the establishment wants you to ignore.Don’t 

John Stossel created Stossel TV to explain liberty and free markets to young people. Prior to Stossel TV he hosted a show on Fox Business and co-anchored ABC’s primetime newsmagazine show, 20/20.

Stossel’s economic programs have been adapted into teaching kits by a non-profit organization, “Stossel in the Classroom.” High school teachers in American public schools now use the videos to help educate their students on economics and economic freedom. They are seen by more than 12 million students every year.

Stossel has received 19 Emmy Awards and has been honored five times for excellence in consumer reporting by the National Press Club. Other honors include the George Polk Award for Outstanding Local Reporting and the George Foster Peabody Award.

Publicity Kills DEI: A Free Speech Solution to Woke Companies

Published on

For years, major corporations bragged about their wonderful Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs. They’re good for business and morally correct, they said. So why are they now cutting those programs?

Robby Starbuck says these programs once got a lot of buy-in, because people wanted to be nice! But DEI came to mean much more than just being nice.

Starbuck says what it looked like in practice was “crazy trainings” and “overtly racist hiring practices.” Now lots of people agree with him.

Companies actually take notice when Starbuck tells his many followers about their DEI programs. Often the programs get dropped.

That’s the power of free speech.

After 40+ years of reporting, I now understand the importance of limited government and personal freedom.

Published on

From StosselTV

Socialism is popular!

Youtube and TikTok stars say socialism “maximizes freedom… increases life-expectancy,” and “improves home-ownership.” It’s so absurd!

I asked my producer, Kristin Tokarev, to investigate their claims. Her video debunks their propaganda.

Influencers now rack up millions of views claiming socialism works better than capitalism. Here’s some of what they get terribly wrong!

After 40+ years of reporting, I now understand the importance of limited government and personal freedom.
