Michael Knowles’s statement on Candace’s departure from The Daily Wire:

Lol, cowards. They talk big about principles and free speech....but immediately fired Candance bc she questioned Israeli butchery in Gaza and kept her America-first consistency on the issue. Imagine taking Dailywire seriously after this. Only neocons would.

A thought-provoking trilogy on The Kennedy Files. This 3-part series exposes declassified information on the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, unraveling the complex web of evidence surrounding that fateful day in 1963.

Michael stays on brand as the golden retriever of the Daily Wire. I still love him but I prefer the honesty and moral clarity of Andrew Klavan's take on Candace. She's a hater and Jeremy should have fired her a long time ago.

It's fair. He's not going to take sides amongst his friends, and this is in character with who Michael Knowles is. I didn't expect much different. He's not a gossip monger and he's very gentle in how he speaks with people, so it was expected.

Well there it is. I would have been shocked if he addressed the elephant in the room, and he didn't shock me as he didn't address it.

He’s friends with all of them. Michael is like the golden retriever of the DW. He’s not getting on anyone’s bad side lol

Klavan's statement was better.

Well this is disappointing…. This is much bigger than just about personal friendships. This goes to several key principles, including one of antisemitism, freedom, censorship, and what it really means and what it doesn’t mean. What a lightweight response on an important issue.

Good. But honestly she didn’t fit it. She just spread conspiracy theories and made the network look terrible. She would say whatever she thought would get her attention and that is it. She was the only person I stopped watching on the network.

all i hear is excuses to avoid telling the truth :)

lol I love how he didn’t mention Matt as a friend 🤣

Coward. The firing of Candace speaks to the fact that DW is accomplice to the cancel culture that they endlessly decry. It also lends monumental credibility to the "antisemitic trope" about Jewish power. ...and Knowles has nothing to say about it?

It's like a divorce. People want you to b take sides. I'm sure, like any split, there is more than meets the eye, two sides to every story. Like a divorce, there will be a huge amount of fallout and pain for everyone.

That wasn’t much of a statement

He could have just said “I don’t want to shake the boat” and ended it there

you can't serve God & money, Michael must either work for the jewish system or choose God

Weak pathetic man

Michael is correct, as usual. I'm sure he tried to tell his friends to keep their petty squabbling out of the public eye, but unfortunately, Ben and Candace could not. Their personal tiff shouldn't have to ruin his friendship. Candace and Ben are both wrong and childish.

He's always trying to bore us to death

Could he be any more wishy-washy?

He comes off like a homosexual Jewish servant

That was low-T... As their child's Godfather, I would hope you would unequivocally stand with Candace. She didn't do ANYTHING wrong. Disappointed to say the least Mr. Knowles. 💰?

And now it's taken down. He's a coward.

Not taking sides is the right thing to say.

What a coward. Funk the Daily Wire

It's pretty sad we can't call out the bad decisions of palistine AND Israel. Ben said he didn't like cancel culture but she has to leave because she said Israel did ONE THING she didn't like and she doesn't believe in taxpayers paying for other countries wars. Makes sense to me

His statement is I have no statement 😂

All that was missing from this statement was a cigar! 😉

I have something to say and that is I have nothing to say.

Spineless

Why bother?

Your best friend, your husband’s best friend, and the godfather to your daughter reacts with a “meh” to the news of you losing your job….

I think this is the best way to speak out in public about public figures when they are still considered friends

Relationships matter to him. Good on him.
