The Comments Section with Brett Cooper

In March 2022, The Week described Cooper's show as "aim[ing] to capture a Gen Z audience on TikTok and YouTube."[7] In March 2023, nonprofit media watchdog organization Media Matters said Cooper had "replayed and praised" insults against influencer Dylan Mulvaney by her Daily Wire colleague Matt Walsh, who was later demonetized on YouTube for infringing YouTube policies and advertiser-friendly guidelines.[8][9]
