Fox News host Laura Ingraham accuses the mainstream media of protecting Vice President Kamala Harris by downplaying the nation's problems and ignoring her shortcomings as a presidential candidate.
Fox News host Laura Ingraham has launched a scathing critique of the mainstream media's coverage of Vice President Kamala Harris' presidential aspirations, accusing them of "throwing a protective blanket" around her and downplaying the nation's pressing issues.
Ingraham's comments came during her show, "The Ingraham Angle," where she expressed frustration with the media's relentless efforts to shield Harris from scrutiny. She asserted that the media has failed to adequately address the nation's economic woes, crime epidemic, and decline in education standards, while giving Harris a free pass.
Ingraham Slams Media Bias in Coverage of Kamala's Presidential Campaign
"Every day, Americans are suffering under bad economic policy," Ingraham said. "Every day, businesses that have survived are shutting down. Students who could have gotten a solid education, they're getting a woke propaganda instead."
She pointed out that the media's protective bubble around Harris has been apparent for years, comparing it to the treatment accorded to President Joe Biden. "For three years, our media threw the equivalent of a kind of protective blanket around Joe Biden to save him from all those realities, but eventually, those realities ended Biden's career," Ingraham explained.
According to Ingraham, the media is making the same mistake with Harris, ignoring her lack of accomplishments and her inability to offer real solutions to the nation's problems. "Facts really are stubborn things," she said. "Now we don't need leaders who hide from the truth. We see the truth."
Ingraham urged Americans to reject the media's bias and make decisions based on reality, rather than on the distorted narrative being presented. "So, if Americans want to make the media happy, yeah, they'll vote for Harris," she said. "But if they want to make themselves happy, they should reelect President Trump."
Ingraham's critique highlights the growing divide between conservative media and mainstream media outlets, with each side accusing the other of bias and manipulation. It remains to be seen whether the media's alleged bias toward Harris will impact her chances in the upcoming presidential election.
Meanwhile, Ingraham's comments have sparked a debate on social media, with some viewers agreeing with her assessment while others have accused her of partisan attacks. The debate is likely to continue as the presidential race heats up.
