Fox News Lands Gen Z Star Brett Cooper: A New Era for Young Conservatives!
FOX NEWS GETS A GLOW-UP: RISING STAR BRETT COOPER JOINS THE NETWORK, BRINGING HER CONSERVATIVE CHARM TO THE BIG SCREEN
In a move that's got everyone talking, Fox News is giving itself a much-needed facelift by bringing on 23-year-old online sensation Brett Cooper as an exclusive contributor. The young conservative personality is set to shake things up on the network, and we've got all the juicy details.
Cooper first made waves in the right-wing world as the host of Daily Wire's popular podcast, The Comments Section. But it was her own YouTube channel, where she dishes out opinions on everything from politics to pop culture, that really catapulted her to fame. With a whopping 1.58 million subscribers, Cooper is the epitome of Gen Z's conservative voice.
But here's the tea: Fox News is counting on Cooper to bring in a younger demographic – and fast! According to Nielsen data, the average viewer age on the network is a whopping 69 years young (yes, you read that right). It's no secret that millennials and Gen Z are more likely to get their news from social media than tune into cable TV. In fact, a Morning Consult poll found that only 27-30% of Gen Zers rely on broadcast or cable news for their daily dose of current events. The rest? They're getting it from social media – where Cooper reigns supreme.
Cooper's debut on Fox News will be on The Will Cain Show at 4:00 p.m. EST on Wednesday, and we can't wait to see her in action. But she won't be the only young gun joining the network's ranks. Fellow conservative personality Riley Gaines is also coming aboard, bringing her activism against biological men competing in women's sports to the table.
Gaines, a former collegiate swimmer turned podcast host, has been making waves with her outspoken views on social issues. Her partnership with Cooper is already generating buzz, especially after they both shared an adorable photo of their pregnant bellies on Instagram last week. "Just two gals growing babies," Gaines captioned the snap.
But what's behind Fox News' sudden interest in courting young talent? Sources close to the network tell The Scholarly Note that while Cooper wasn't hired specifically to appeal to a younger audience, it's likely she'll have a significant impact on the network's demographics. After all, as one insider puts it, "Brett is the face of Gen Z conservatism – and we're excited to have her on board."
So, who is this rising star? Born in Washington state but raised in Tennessee, Cooper has had an unconventional upbringing. At just 10 years old, she relocated to Los Angeles with her family to pursue a career in entertainment. By age 15, she was already emancipated and studying at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), where she earned a degree in English literature.
But Cooper's past isn't all about academics – she's also had minor roles in several TV shows and movies. And if you're wondering what she's up to next, look no further than The Daily Wire's production of Snow White, which still lists her as the star.
Now living outside Nashville with her husband Alex Tombul (whom she married just last April), Cooper is expecting their first child – a development she shared with her 1.3 million Instagram followers back in May. But what really sets her apart? Her commitment to staying true to herself and her conservative values, even when it's not the most popular opinion.
With Fox News' acquisition of Cooper, it seems like the network is finally listening to its younger viewers – or at least, trying to be more relatable to them. Whatever the reason, one thing's for sure: Brett Cooper is about to bring a fresh face (and perspective) to the world of conservative commentary. Stay tuned!
