Koppel said to Hannity, "You think idiology is more important than facts." Spot on!
Nice try, cheese-eater.
That aint what Koppel said at all. He said he thought that, as an opinion commentator (not a journalist), Hannity "was very good at what he does," but that he thought it
attracted people who "think that ideology is more important than facts." The typical left-wing distortion of what legitimate people say, eh?
Koppel was NOT talking about Hannity, per se, until Hannity asked him what he thought was wrong with "opinion" pieces like his. He was talking about the media in general, the so-called "main stream media."
Quote:In a Gallup Poll conducted in September 2016, only 32 percent of respondents said they had “a great deal” or “a fair amount” of trust in the media.
Koppel: "the fact of the matter is by being so openly adversarial, I think it has simply divided the country even more than it was. I think the mainstream media may have to back off a little bit..."
To ignore one side or the other “just adds to more and more extreme partisanship,” Koppel says.
" We can't just get lost in our own little bubble or our own little opinion silo.”
Every left-wing rag will ONLY report what he said about Hannity, and ignore his direct criticism of them.
