Dennis Prager PragerU and Show
Prager and his producer Allen Estrin started a website called PragerU in 2009, which creates five-minute videos on various topics from a conservative perspective. According to Prager, he created the site to challenge the “unhealthy effect intellectually and morally” of the American higher education system. BuzzFeed described PragerU as “one of the biggest, most influential, and yet least understood forces in online media.” As of 2018, it spent around 40% of its annual $10 million budget on marketing; each video is produced according to a consistent style. Videos cover topics such as “racism, sexism, income inequality, gun ownership, Islam, immigration, Israel, police brutality” and speech on college campuses. BuzzFeed wrote that “the biggest reason PragerU has escaped national attention is that it mostly doesn’t do Trump,” or engage with the political news cycle. Some of its videos had restricted viewer access by YouTube in 2017.
