Conservative Commentator Brett Cooper Launches New Show Amid Changing Media Landscape
Conservative commentator and internet star Brett Cooper is set to launch her new show, “The Brett Cooper Show,” this week. Cooper, who gained popularity hosting “The Comments Section” on The Daily Wire, is now going independent with her new show, which is set to premiere on January 30 at 1 p.m. ET.
In an interview on “Jesse Watters Primetime,” Cooper discussed the changing media landscape and her decision to go independent. She noted that young people are hungry for independent voices who are authentic and honest with their audiences, and are no longer interested in hearing from traditional pundits.
Cooper also reflected on the shift in culture, where young Americans on the right are now considered “edgy.” She pointed out that young people have always been key to changing history, citing the American Revolution as an example. “We think about those guys, and they were pretty normal, and they were wanting freedom, and they were wanting the life that we have built now in this country,” she said.
The media landscape has opened the door for everyday Americans to have a voice and share their own opinions, whether through platforms like X or Substack. Cooper believes that people have a voice in a way that they haven’t had before, and that her goal is to invite Americans to open up to another perspective.
“If I can change your perspective on who we are and what we believe and what we stand for, even if it’s not to change your mind or change your vote, but to make you have more respect for your friends who think differently than you, then I’ve done what I want to do,” she said.
Cooper’s goal is to reach across the aisle with nuance and empathy, and believes that there is more progress to be made in terms of bridging the political divide.
