BANNON UNLEASHES ON THE MEDIA: ‘You Have No Power…You Are the Opposition Party’

In a telephone interview with the NY Times, Stephen Bannon, chief strategist to the President, called the main stream media out for their shilling and warned them to shut their big stupid mouths.

Trump fan or not, one thing is indelibly clear, all of the media networks, including Fox, were very anti-Trump from the beginning. Many of you will try to rewrite history and suggest that Fox was onboard the Trump train; but they were not. The only person who truly supported Trump on Fox was Sean Hannity. Other than that, from Shep Smith to Megyn Kelly to Bret Hume, Trump was viewed as a pussy grabbing orange clown and treated in a manner that was meant to hurt him.

For the media, a Trump win was their nightmare come true. Even worse, Trump is using the executive powers that were readily applauded by the left to make drastic changes — undoing much of Obama’s legacy and removing key tenets of the liberal agenda. And we’re just getting started.

Hailing from Breitbart.com, an organization remembered for its fearless late founder, Andrew Breitbart (who died suspiciously, and his coroner), Stephen Bannon tells the NYT exactly what they are — at least in the eyes of tens of millions of voters, casting an uncomfortable light upon their decrepit and horribly disfigured fat faces.

“The media should be embarrassed and humiliated and keep its mouth shut and just listen for a while,” Mr. Bannon said during a telephone call.

“I want you to quote this,” Mr. Bannon added. “The media here is the opposition party. They don’t understand this country. They still do not understand why Donald Trump is the president of the United States.”

“The elite media got it dead wrong, 100 percent dead wrong,” Mr. Bannon said of the election, calling it “a humiliating defeat that they will never wash away, that will always be there.”

“The mainstream media has not fired or terminated anyone associated with following our campaign,” Mr. Bannon said. “Look at the Twitter feeds of those people: they were outright activists of the Clinton campaign.” (He did not name specific reporters or editors.)

“That’s why you have no power,” Mr. Bannon added. “You were humiliated.”

Asked if he was concerned that Mr. Spicer had lost credibility with the news media, Mr. Bannon chortled. “Are you kidding me?” he said. “We think that’s a badge of honor. ‘Questioning his integrity’ — are you kidding me? The media has zero integrity, zero intelligence, and no hard work.”

“You’re the opposition party,” Mr. Bannon said. “Not the Democratic Party. You’re the opposition party. The media’s the opposition party.”

Mr. Bannon mostly referred to the “elite” or “mainstream” media, but he cited The New York Times and The Washington Post by name.

“The paper of record for our beloved republic, The New York Times, should be absolutely ashamed and humiliated,” Mr. Bannon said. “They got it 100 percent wrong.”

Bannon is a Harvard and Goldman Sachs alumni. He started off his young adult life as a Naval officer on the USS Foster, in addition to being a special assistant to the Chief of Naval Operations at the Pentagon.

Now he spends his time destroying the media-democrat complex, and in his spare time advising the President of the United States.
