Kamala Harris wasn’t the only loser on Tuesday.
The entire American Left took a shellacking.
And Sean Hannity announced one death that left Fox News viewers in shock.
Sean Hannity says Trump’s win crushed the media
The media bias in the 2024 campaign was off the charts.
No candidate – not even Barack Obama – benefited from more propaganda press coverage than Kamala Harris.
As the returns came in on Election Night, it quickly became clear that Trump was going to win.
Sean Hannity told Fox News viewers the main take away was that the “legacy media” in America was “dead.”
“And to think she never had to answer why she doesn’t think we should say radical Islamic terrorism, why she wasn’t asked about supporting a bail fund, 574 riots in the summer of 2024 or co-sponsoring the Green New Deal or saying no private health insurance, Medicare for All or sex change operations for illegal immigrants. What will this say, Brit? Well, Brit. About legacy media in America. It’s dead,” Hannity declared.
CNN, NBC, ABC, CBS, the New York Times, the Washington Post, and a whole host of other outlets threw their bodies on the scale for Kamala.
Hannity pointed out that no journalist at any of these press organizations asked Kamala Harris a question harder than what she would do differently than Joe Biden.
And Kamala Harris couldn’t even answer that.
Fox News senior political analyst Brit Hume agreed with Hannity’s analysis.
Hume argued that Trump’s win meant the traditional media’s influence was at a low ebb since the combined might of the press failed to prevent Trump from winning re-election.
“Well, it’s the decline of its influence has been evident for years. This is proof of it. In some respects, I think that the behavior of the legacy media backfired against the candidate they were supporting because it was so over-the-top. Same with the prosecution. The same thing happened in print,” Hume declared.
Legacy media agrees
It wasn’t just conservatives like Hume and Hannity delivering the media’s eulogy.
Axios co-founder Jim VandeHei went on MSNBC’s Morning Joe and warned the show’s co-hosts that this election showed the limit of media influence as big brand press outfits are now little more than niche products for leftists.
VandeHei explained that a podcaster like Joe Rogan – whose show reaches 14 million listeners per episode – is far more influential than pro-Democrat media outlets like MSNBC.
“All of us have to come to grips, the legacy media is just not as important as it thinks it is . . . It’s a relatively small group of people who rely on us for their information . . . So if you just look empirically at the numbers, Joe Rogan is more important than any of us,” VandeHei declared.
