Rebel News is a Canadian far-right online news organization and website founded in 2015 by Ezra Levant and Brian Lilley, former personalities from the defunct Sun News Network. Operating as a political and social commentary platform under Rebel News Network Ltd., it focuses on conservative, anti-establishment viewpoints, with a strong emphasis on anti-Islam rhetoric and counter-jihad ideology. The outlet has gained notoriety for its provocative journalism, including confrontational street reporting and criticism of mainstream media, government policies, and progressive causes. It positions itself as an alternative to what it calls 'liberal' or 'woke' media, often crowdfunding to support its operations and legal battles. The organization has expanded into a 'global platform' with international coverage, particularly on issues like immigration, free speech, and cultural conflicts, but remains primarily based in Canada. Rebel News has faced widespread criticism for promoting Islamophobia, misinformation, and far-right narratives, leading to bans on social media platforms and multiple legal challenges. Despite controversies, it maintains a dedicated audience through subscriptions, donations, and video content on YouTube and its own site, with contributors including high-profile conservative figures. Rebel News is accused of fostering divisive content that aligns with global counter-jihad movements, and its reporting has been condemned by advocacy groups for stoking anti-Muslim sentiment. Key incidents include aggressive interviews that resulted in complaints to police and human rights bodies, as well as defenses of figures like Tommy Robinson. The outlet's influence extends through partnerships and shared ideologies with other right-wing media, though it operates independently as a for-profit entity.
