Why everyone should see ‘The Undefeated’

I’ve had a number of conversations with people about “The Undefeated,” Steve Bannon’s documentary about Sarah Palin’s record as Alaska’s governor. While most of Governor Palin’s supporters are committed to seeing the movie, the two oft-repeated excuses from those who don’t intend to watch it are: A) This movie is targeted at Palin supporters. I don’t support her so it would be a total waste of my time to see it; B) What’s the point? She’s not running anyway. Now if she announced, that would be a different story.

I beg to differ. I believe that even if you don’t support her or don’t think she’ll run, you should still go see it.

For close to three years now, Americans have been subjected to hours and hours of reporting about Governor Palin. More often than not, those reports distorted her record, misquoted her remarks and ridiculed her family. While most Americans have heard the media’s spin about Governor Palin, hardly any have had the opportunity to hear her side of the story.

Whether Governor Palin runs for president or not, when history is written and the story of Governor Palin is told to future generations, every fair-minded person will want to be able to tell their children: “I heard both sides of the story.” It makes no difference whether after watching the movie you end up supporting her or whether you accept what you see. When your children ask you whether you just went along with what the media told you or whether you did your own homework, you’ll want to be in a position to respond: “I did my own research; I gave her a fair hearing and I reached my own educated conclusion.”

Researching Governor Palin’s record can be a demanding task, especially with so many fabricated and negative stories about her. Bannon condensed her record into a two-hour documentary. He did the work for you. All he asks for in return is two hours of your time and $10 for his trouble.

After watching almost three years of biased reporting, every fair-minded American should find two hours of his time to give Governor Palin the chance to tell her side of the story. If nothing else, you should see it just to feel better about yourself for being truly open-minded, hearing out the other side and not just going with the flow.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
