About The Daily Knight

The Daily Knight is an online news media platform and publication that is based in the United States. The mission of our apostolate is to defeat modernism, which was defined by Pope St. Pius X, as the "synthesis of all heresies."

We offer an objectively traditional and authentic Catholic publication for providing and analyzing US & World News through a truthful lens. All Church news is promptly and articulately distributed in defense of the One True Faith against all heresy and the modernist rot that stretches from seminary to chancery and from parish to the Vatican. Our contributors work tirelessly to produce historical work and proper Catholic catechesis on Apostolic Tradition and Sacred Scripture, updates on the Counter Revolution being waged against modernists, socialists, and communists, and insightful Commentary on the events of the world, past and present.

The temporal and spiritual work of The Daily Knight is offered in honor of the Most Sacred and Victorious Heart of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
