90: Micro Mockingbird

The Wilkes Brothers and Daily Wire Funding

Alex Jones alleged that The Daily Wire is backed by "spook-related money" and billionaire fracking magnates Dan and Farris Wilkes. The hosts investigate the Wilkes brothers, noting their extreme privacy and their role as the "secret Koch brothers" of the right. They discuss how wealthy individuals like Jeff Bezos and the Penske family traditionally use media acquisitions to advance personal and business agendas.
