“2-Way” host Mark Halperin said the left’s asymmetrical advantage in media was his “loser of the week.” “It’s a paradigm shift, and they don’t recognize what a crutch that’s been for them,” Halperin said. “They have lost their ability to have these asymmetrical advantages. Huge loss for them and a huge loss to the Democratic Party, which relied on these advantages.”

MARK HALPERIN: The left’s presumption that they can asymmetrically dominate the media. Stephen Colbert turned his show into a nightly anti-Trump program. NPR and PBS, as Karoline Leavitt has well documented-they’re just attack machines for the Democrats. And they have lost their ability to have these asymmetrical advantages. Huge loss for them and a huge loss to the Democratic Party, which relied on these advantages. SEAN SPICER: Mark, you’re scratching at something that is so profound. Because I’ve argued for the longest time that Democrats have had a hold on all these mega institutions, right? And you’re right-you’ve got Colbert, NPR, PBS starting to fall. But then it’s the alternative economy, where Republicans have learned: “OK, well, if you don’t want to get debanked by Bank of America-build your own bank. If you want a currency-go to crypto.” This is what happened with the media-the rise of talk radio and then podcasts. But the left-their domination of academia, Hollywood, corporate America-is getting chipped away because they jumped the shark on so many things. MARK HALPERIN: 100%. That’s why I make them the loser. It’s a paradigm shift, and they don’t recognize what a crutch that’s been for them. SEAN SPICER: They really don’t.
