Rebel Media is a far-right Canadian online platform founded by ex-tabloid editor and anti-Muslim activist Ezra Levant in February 2015.

It has been described as 'a global platform for an extreme anti-Muslim ideology known as counter-jihad. It’s a far-right fringe theory founded on the belief that Muslims are deliberately invading the West, biding their time, then overtaking communities and imposing Shariah Law'. <ref> [http://nationalpost.com/features/inside-ezra-levants-rebel-media

In spring 2017 Rebel Media began filing reports from the UK.

Hiring counterjihadists, columnists and ex-political leaders

In 2017 Rebel Media hired Stephen Lennon aka Tommy Robinson ex-head of anti-Muslim street movements English Defence League and Pegida UK as a 'reporter', alongside ex-Chelsea bartender Caolan Robertson.

in January 2018 Rebel signed up notorious anti-Muslim media pundit Katie Hopkins, just months after Mail Online failed to renew her two-year contract.

Other regular Rebel Media pundits across the globe include the former Australian Labour Party opposition leader Mark Latham.
