LOL: CNN Says Trump Won Because The Left Doesn't Have a 'Media Ecosystem' - Conservative Angle

The late night comedy shows may not have been very funny after Donald Trump's election victory, but the Wednesday edition of CNN's Inside Politics was as PBS News Hour White House correspondent Laura Barron-Lopez got the panel to agree that one reason Kamala Harris lost is that, unlike Trump, she did not have a "media ecosystem" to help her get across the finish line.

Barron-Lopez desperately wanted to avoid the conclusion that Democrats need a reboot, "One thing that I think stands out also, we can't have this conversation, a little bit to your point, Dana, is that maybe it's not so much Democrats' policies or messaging or the words they used specifically, but there is an entire right-wing media ecosystem that doesn't exist on the left and it does not exist in the center or mainstream and people are getting their information in very different ways now."

As she was speaking, Barron-Lopez's fellow panelists, including John King of "Donald Trump tries to intimidate people, he bullies people, he tries to scare you away. That was Jack Smith with no words and a simple $5 sub in his hand saying 'I'm not going anywhere'" fame, all chimed in heavy amounts of "yes."

Barron-Lopez rolled on, "And Donald Trump and Republicans and Elon Musk and Joe Rogan, know exactly how to reach Americans where they are regardless of age and demographic, and that played a big role in this because of the fact that, like, whether it was disinformation, misinformation or different propaganda, that they were feeding to the American public, that made them feel the way they did, and the American public felt as though -- that they were being heard by Donald Trump."

Kamala Harris and Tim Walz's media strategy consisted of interviews with Call Her Daddy, Stephen Colbert, Saturday Night Live, Jimmy Kimmel, The Daily Show, The Breakfast Club, and MSNBC's Stephanie Ruhle. If that isn't a left-wing ecosystem, then what is? Additionally, Inside Politics host Dana Bash may not want to view herself as part of a left-wing ecosystem, but she is.

Outside of Harris and Walz's media appearances, Barron-Lopez herself is one of the most biased reporters in the media at an outlet bankrolled by Uncle Sam. Of all the reasons Harris lost, the lack of a left-wing echo chamber isn't one of them.

LAURA BARRON-LOPEZ: One thing that I think stands out also, we can't have this conversation, a little bit to your point, Dana, is that maybe it's not so much Democrats' policies or messaging or the words they used specifically, but there is an entire right-wing media ecosystem --

BARRON-LOPEZ: -- that doesn't exist on the left and it does not exist in the center or mainstream and people are getting their information in very different ways now. And Donald Trump and Republicans and Elon Musk and Joe Rogan, know exactly how to reach Americans where they are regardless of age and demographic, and that played a big role in this because of the fact that, like, whether it was disinformation, misinformation or different propaganda, that they were feeding to the American public, that made them feel the way they did, and the American public felt as though -- that they were being heard by Donald Trump.
