Funding is one thing but you need listeners and subscribers. Things can get funded into the ground with a bad model.
Is Joe Rogan's Spotify deal right-wing funded? Spotify took a huge risk, it was a music platform.
How does Theo Von get labeled Right Wing? The guy is a goofball comedian with no clue about politics. Sure, he had Trump on and was friendly (mostly rambled about his cocaine addiction while Trump had no idea how to respond), but he also had Bernie Sanders on right before Trump, and seemed excited about everything Bernie said.
