Politico co-founder Jim VandeHei said in an interview published Tuesday that the liberal media has reached a low point in popularity and influence over the American public.
“There’s a market for ideological,” VandeHei said in an interview with Mediaite.
“The left right now, liberal media has probably never been weaker in my lifetime than right now.”
CNN and NBC News, among other liberal news outlets, have reported layoffs of staff this year amid concerns over lower ratings and a changing media landscape, as podcasters continue to grow their audiences.
According to internal data shared with digital news site Semafor, The Washington Post lost most of its daily digital traffic during President Biden’s time in office.
Though the outlet’s website reached its peak daily online readership towards the start of the Biden administration, it lost nearly every one of those readers by the time it was about to end.
