Appearing on Fox Business Network’s Varney & Co., MRC founder and president Brent Bozell said the liberal media were the second-biggest losers on election night: “They were crushed. They were the second-biggest losers. But the difference between them and Hillary Clinton is that their loss continues. She is finished, but they still stay in the game. They have a public that simply repudiated them. The public didn’t distinguish between her calling them a basket of deplorable and the media treating them like a basket of deplorables.”
Bozell harped on leaks exposing the media's shameless collusion and cheating with the Clintons:
VARNEY: Do you think they’ll ever acknowledge their sins, so to speak, of working actually with and for the Clinton campaign? Because those Wikileaks revealed exactly what they were doing. Will they acknowledge that?
BOZELL. Never. Not in a million years. And they will excuse this election as some kind of aberration., you know, the The poor, uneducated and easy to command types, those rural hillbillies, the basket of deplorables, they had their say. In four years we’ll get back to normalcy. That’s going to be their attitude. They will never concede that they worked hand in glove with the Clinton campaign that they were defeated as much as she was. They’ll never concede that -- and Stuart, we have to understand that they were cheating all along, they were cheating! That Donna Brazile – she’s going to become the face of the national media. They cheated in this campaign and they were caught.
But looking ahead to the media’s coverage of the incoming Trump administration, Bozell predicted: “Well, I think they will become even more radical, believe it or not. Because, my God, they've got to stop this man. I mean, he's going to introduce freedom in America -- we can't have that! So they will be going ballistic.”
