Newsom Calls Fox News Pravda,' Says Dems Need To Be Culturally Normal' to Win Elections
"The governor said he approved it because he needed to wake everybody up to the normalization of deviancy and he said Fox News has been a prime offender, while comparing it the Soviet Union's go-to propaganda outlet. You got Pravda, the primetime lineup at Fox, just going on and on [in defense of Trump], Newsom said. [He] called someone the R word' or piggy, and somehow it's just Trump being Trump.'"
"We have to be a little less judgmental. He said he could talk about why he thought ex-Vice President Kamala Harris lost to Trump, but he said it was worth looking at the larger narrative Dems whiffed on. Newsom pointed to several issues he said Dems did a poor job on, including Israeli politics, immigration, the border, as well as incumbency issues and inflation."
"Newsom ripped the president for an AI image where he was wearing the Pope's garb, as well as for wanting to add his face to Mount Rushmore. A slice of the Dealbook crowd applauded that complaint. He then said it was ridiculous that Fox News ran 11 to 15 pieces where commentators were disgusted with his wannabe-Trump posts, but never said a damn word about Trump's social media behavior."
Gavin Newsom criticized Fox News as a prime offender in normalizing deviancy, likening its primetime lineup to Pravda and Soviet propaganda. He said he approved his social media team's mimicry of Donald Trump's posting style to wake everybody up to that normalization. He condemned Trump for using slurs, for an AI image of him in the Pope's garb, and for wanting his face added to Mount Rushmore. He accused Fox of criticizing his mimicry while ignoring Trump's social media behavior. He also warned Democrats that being culturally out-of-touch on issues like Israel, immigration, the border, incumbency, and inflation cost them in 2024 and urged less judgmental, more relatable messaging.
