Media Critics Sound Off on Far-left Extremism
Fox News contributor Joe Concha labeled the segment “journalistic malfeasance.”
“The executives who greenlit this idea to give a lunatic like Taylor Lorenz a platform in primetime should be fired,” he told Fox News Digital. “And the host who nodded along… should be fired too.”
Heritage Foundation Media Fellow Tim Young echoed the criticism:
“It would make sense that a morally repugnant person would support another morally repugnant person,” he said, condemning both Lorenz and CNN for the coverage.
“This is the modern left — if they disagree with your opinion, they want you eliminated… I could never imagine wishing physical harm on them. It’s low, disgusting, and has no place in American society.”
