The Daily Wire

The Daily Wire was conceived by Ben Shapiro and Jeremy Boreing; the company says they launched it in 2015 "in partnership with Caleb Robinson", with an initial investment from Farris Wilks. Robinson was its founding CEO, and from 2019 he shared the role with Boreing as co-CEO. When Boreing stepped down in March 2025, Robinson became sole CEO. His LinkedIn profile lists him as president since July 2015 of Forward Publishing, the company that owns The Daily Wire (since renamed Bentkey Ventures and later DailyWire Ventures).

On 20 May 2026 Robinson announced that he was stepping down as CEO with immediate effect and would stay on the company's board, describing himself as still owning "a lot of the company". He was succeeded by Mike Richards, the company's president and a former executive producer of Jeopardy!. The change came days after Shapiro said the company had laid off about 13% of its workforce since the start of the year.
