We’re getting a lot of former Welsh News Network viewers who are finding the new YouTube channel and the newspaper and asking the same thing: “What the hell happened to WNN?”
WNN as we know it died a few weeks ago. The kinda full story can be found on Irish Demon’s channel. Just do a search for Welsh News Network there. Or search for Dan. Mainly Dan.
The group of former WNN hosts who have been ready to make statements made statements on Demon’s channel about the situation. That includes me, Shuggy and Pope Phil so far. Out of respect for the group, we’re limiting our statements to what personally happened to us and letting the others tell their stories as they’re ready.
The same things that had always been in question about Dan were the things that ultimately brought him down. His military service claims, his claims of where he lived, his claims of extensive wealth (dating back to the third century in Wales), etc., and most importantly, what was going on with the charity donations he’d collect on the show and did the money go to the causes WNN raised money for.
When asked to put up or admit that things weren’t what they seemed, in my view, Dan essentially went silent and ran after promising he’d send proof through a solicitor at some later time.
Which, in my personal experience, means he’ll make up a reason why he can’t answer at this time (dramatic incident in his life), return after that incident has gained him sympathy and never talk about the things you wanted answers about again… until the next time it came up and he’d just repeat the process.
Right now, he promised the group an answer to questions we posed to him weeks ago and after sufficient time, his solicitor apparently died in a snowbank because he’s never coming through with actual answers.
The group left WNN in a unified fashion.
Becca has closed the WNN portion of their formerly shared private Discord. She moderates for ReallyCoolNews from time to time but out of all of us, she’s taking the time to deal with the ramifications of Dan.
Shuggy has gone on to make appearances here and there and has made a name for himself as he helped expose truths about Dan. He appears here on panel shows from time to time and remains Shuggy.
Pope Phil, Hank and I have been working hard on Karen Read Murder Trial coverage here and our weekly panels. We’ve been taking a new approach to things, and it’s been much more relaxed now that we can be ourselves and it’s our agenda running our shows.
It’s been a big change for everyone. Dan impacted so many people and his ghosting of everyone left a gigantic hole in the community and there are natural questions to be asked.
I think as a group, we’ve answered what we can for various reasons. Irish Demon brought a world of answers during his many live streams on the subject, so go there and listen to what he has to say.
The one person who isn’t talking is Dan. Take his silence at face value. I take it as a sign of a ghost.
As far as me, I’ve gone from funny sidekick to running a news network. My life is working on this channel and trying to make sure bills are paid. See the scroll, see the scroll, any help is appreciated.
But to get back to the question: WNN is dead. We’re all cleaning up the mess Dan left behind.
That’s all I have to say on the matter right now.
