Everything Everywhere Daily - The 7 People Who Control the Internet

The internet is often considered to be an open environment where no one really controls anything. A company or a person might have control over a particular website but in the big scheme of things you can set up whatever websites you want without anyone’s permission. 

This is mostly true, but not totally true. If you keep going up the chain of control on the internet, you will eventually reach the top, where there sit people who hold seven keys. Those keyholders are ultimately the ones who control the internet. 

Learn more about the internet’s key masters on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Daily Signal - How Conservatives Can Do Better in Engaging Black Americans

Commentator Deroy Murdock, besides being a Fox News regular and a contributing editor at National Review Online, is a senior fellow with the London Center for Policy Research.

Murdock joins "The Daily Signal Podcast" to share his journey to conservatism, how he got started in journalism, and what he thinks conservatives can do better to reach the black community.


"I think the primary thing that conservatives need to do to reach black Americans is make the effort," Murdock says, adding:

I think that there is a certain hesitancy to do so. I don't think it's malicious. I just think there's a sense pretty well among white conservatives, [of] 'Well, we don't know what to say to them and we don't know quite the language and maybe there'll be upset.'The best thing to do is knock on the doors, go to the black churches, go to the black businesses, go to the black schools, whatever it is, and talk about these ideas and why they're good for America and why they're good for black Americans.

We also cover these stories:

  • President Biden holds his first official press conference over two months since taking office.
  • The CEO’ of Facebook, Twitter, and Google testify before a House committee.
  • Republican senators introduce legislation to end child trafficking at the border.

Consider This from NPR - One’s Antifa. One’s In A Militia. How An Ancestry Match Led To An Unlikely Bond

Two distant cousins connect online, only to learn that one is a militant leftist and the other is in a right-wing militia. Their story shows the complexities of a timely question: Who's an extremist?
