One year after the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the fastest-growing voices competing to inherit his audience are, according to a new Newsweek analysis, women.
The magazine scored a field of candidates out of 100 across five weighted measures and placed podcaster Alex Clark at the top with 93.4, followed by Brett Cooper on 81.3, Riley Gaines on 80.2, Isabel Brown on 78.1, and Amala Ekpunobi on 68.6. Every name in the top five is a woman working in podcasting and social media, the platforms Kirk helped define for the American right.
