Mediaite’s Most Influential in News Media 2023
“OutKick founder Clay Travis followed up a breakout year in 2022 with an arguably bigger year in 2023. Travis brought on commentator Charly Arnolt to his sports and politics website after she left her role as backup host on ESPN’s First Take. Months later, OutKick announced activist Riley Gaines would be launching a new podcast exclusively through them. With this new talent at his disposal, Travis debuted the Sunday prime time show OutKick on Fox in August, where he touches on a wide variety of political issues. Additionally, The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show – tasked with succeeding The Rush Limbaugh Show – has been a big success and hosted some of the most prominent figures in politics today, including Sen. Ted Cruz and former President Donald Trump. Travis also published American Playbook: A Guide to Winning Back the Country from the Democrats, his bestselling book to date. When you both host a highly-rated show and run a growing news business, that’s true influence.”
