Nobody has fought harder than we have on this issue. And for that reason, I've never been more proud. And I want to tell you a little bit just in reflection on how it came to be in this moment. Two weeks after the founding of the company, Ben Shapiro went on CNN and did a show with Dr. Drew and Zoe Turr. If those of you don't remember, Zoe Turr is a biological man. Yes.

who it's hard to remember him because he's basically disappeared from public life. But he's a biological man who at that time was defending so-called trans rights, which were fairly novel at the time. Most of us had not really engaged with this issue in a major way.

And yet there was Ben, 2015, I can't stress enough, two weeks after we started The Daily Wire, and he was debating these issues and he referred to Tur as Sir, which in retrospect was perhaps a little bit more polite than Ben should have been. Tur, though, responded to this by grabbing Ben by the neck and saying, if you say that again, you're going home in an ambulance.

It was an amazing moment of television. I mean, here you had a rather large biological man in a dress threatening physical violence if Ben didn't bend the knee to this obvious delusion. And what was the reaction from CNN? Nothing. What was the reaction from Dr. Drew while one of his guests was being threatened on national television for saying a political opinion? Nothing.

And that was the first clue that we had as a company as to what this fight was going to be like.

It was going to be threats, threats of physical violence, threats of economic hardship, threats of demonetization, of blocking, of harassment, of threats against essentially the livelihood of everyone who worked for this company and our opportunities at success at every turn if we did not accept this obvious lie. So from day one, it was the Daily Wire's policy not to give into this.

From day one, it was our policy not to use the ridiculous novel concept of preferred pronouns in any of our reporting. And we decided instead we would just use pronouns in our reporting like reporters had been doing since the dawn of time.

But at the time, in retrospect, that's not a very big deal, except that at the time, everybody was moving as quickly as they could to rewrite the rules of language to accommodate for this gender madness. Back then in 2015, we only had two hosts, Ben and Drew.
