A recent national poll has indicated that while conservative media personalities Ben Shapiro and Candace Owens are well-known among Republicans, there is a significant lack of awareness and trust in figures such as Tim Pool and Jack Posobiec. This poll comes amidst discussions on the influence of media personalities and online influencers. An article from @mediaite framing Pool and Posobiec as 'far-right influencers' has been met with criticism, including from Posobiec himself, who expressed disbelief at being labeled as such by Team DeSantis. Additionally, the 'Never Back Down' article has received attention for describing Posobiec and Pool in these terms, leading to a backlash and a claim that this 'smear' has backfired, citing their reach to 100 million Americans. The author of the article, identified as Isaac Schorr, has been labeled a 'Never Trumper' by Posobiec.
And both from same author, Never Trumper Isaac Schorr https://t.co/NvydO4kjJb
Never Back Down smear of Jack Posobiec and Tim Pool BACKFIRES, poll finds they reach 100M Americans https://t.co/Pvf9oTPYpr https://t.co/Pvf9oTPYpr
I can't believe Team DeSantis has now labeled @Timcast as "Far-Right"
Republicans Don't Know Or Trust Far-Right Influencers Like Jack Posobiec And Tim Pool https://t.co/PnDfew5WrK via @mediaite
What a fascinating article. It describes Jack Posobiec and Tim Pool as "far-right influencers." It's not for me to say if anyone else trusts them, but I absolutely do not agree with the framing. https://t.co/nkIxZ4GcdR
In our latest national poll, we explored media personalities and online influencers. It turns out some of them are not very influential. While @BenShapiro and @RealCandaceO are quite famous, very few Republicans know or trust @TimCast and @JackPosobiec. https://t.co/7Fya383Tat
