CRTV was Mark Levin's Conservative Review TV, a right-wing digital video outlet. In late 2018, it merged with The Blaze to become BlazeTV. Before its merger, CRTV was home to the incredibly misogynistic and bigoted Proud Boys founder Gavin McInnes' show Get Off My Lawn.

BlazeTV was created in late 2018 with the merger of Mark Levin's CRTV and Glenn Beck's The Blaze, and features over a dozen online shows from right-wing commentators.

Numerous news stories, government investigations, indictments, and convictions have stemmed from allegations that members of President Donald Trump's campaign, transition team, and administration assisted Russia in its interference in the 2016 presidential election in support of Trump.

Glenn Beck has been a syndicated talk radio host since 2002, a former CNN Headline News host, and a Fox News host during the early years of the Obama administration until he was fired following a long advertising boycott for his claim that then-President Barack Obama was a “racist.” Beck, who also regularly featured anti-Semitism and conspiracy theories on his Fox show, founded the online conservative platform TheBlaze in 2011 after he was fired from Fox, and his online video platform merged with Mark Levin's CRTV to become Blaze Media in 2018.
