Kari Lake did what patriotic Americans expect from a fighter for truth — she called out the leftist press for what it is: a propaganda machine masquerading as journalism. In a recent appearance on Rob Schmitt Tonight, Lake ripped into “fake news” reporters, bluntly labeling them propagandists who push narratives to damage President Trump and silence dissenting voices. Her message was simple and unapologetic: hardworking Americans deserve reporters who report facts, not political hit pieces disguised as news.
This wasn’t idle rhetoric; Lake and other conservatives have repeatedly exposed how the mainstream press cherry-picks stories, buries inconvenient facts, and amplifies lies that help the radical left. The media’s double standards are obvious — rush to crucify conservative figures while giving soft treatment to Democrats, and then pretend it’s fair and unbiased. That pattern of behavior is why millions of Americans no longer trust the so-called legacy outlets and instead turn to independent, pro-America outlets that actually hold power to account.
Make no mistake: when the press becomes an arm of the political left, our republic is in danger. Lake’s anger is shared by millions who’ve watched stories like border chaos, Hunter Biden’s scandals, and inflationary policy get excused or minimized, while conservative voices are smeared and deplatformed. This is not about “sensationalism” — it’s about survival of a free press that serves the public rather than a political agenda. Americans should be furious that a handful of talking heads think they can shape elections and shape history with their half-truths.
Patriots must demand accountability: call out the lies, support honest outlets, and refuse to let media elites dictate what we believe. Networks like NEWSMAX have stepped into the void to give a platform to voices that refuse to bow to the narrative police, and that has made a difference in reaching millions who want the unvarnished truth. We should cheer leaders like Kari Lake who stand up for American values on national platforms and force the conversation back to facts and fairness.
I searched for the original YouTube clip and accompanying Newsmax post referenced in the prompt and found numerous recent Newsmax appearances by Lake on Rob Schmitt Tonight where she slammed media bias and “woke” narratives, though I could not locate an exact transcript of the precise YouTube title verbatim in mainstream indexes. The reporting and TV segments I reviewed confirm the broader, consistent pattern: Lake has made repeated, forceful charges against the mainstream press and used Newsmax as her venue to lay those charges bare for the American people.
