The Daily Caller is a right-wing news and opinion website based in Washington, D.C.[7] It was founded by former Fox News host Tucker Carlson and political pundit Neil Patel in 2010. Launched as a "conservative answer to The Huffington Post", The Daily Caller quadrupled its audience and became profitable by 2012, surpassing several rival websites by 2013. In 2020, the site was described by The New York Times as having been "a pioneer in online conservative journalism".[8]The Daily Caller is a member of the White House press pool.[9]
The Daily Caller has published stories claimed by some to be false and declined to correct them when they were shown to be untrue.[16] The website has published articles that contradict the scientific consensus on climate change. In September 2018, the website cut ties with an editor linked to white supremacist causes.[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]
