The Daily Caller did not hold back its attacks Monday Marc LevinFox News and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX).
The right-wing media, co-founded by Tucker Carlson in 2010, last year became a prominent critic of the president that of Donald Trump war in Iran and Israel – as did Carlson himself, who is no longer involved with the site. Carlson has also long feuded with Levin and Cruz, often engaging in heated exchanges.
The caller’s social media account responded to a message from Cruz, who shared part of his weekend interview on Levin’s Fox News show.
Cruz wrote in his post: “Voters were pissed on Election Day. It was basically not a turnout issue. Millions of people who voted Republican in 2024 came out and voted for the other side.” He added:
The determining factor is the cost of living. It became increasingly difficult to put food on the table, to pay the mortgage, to pay the rent. Every bill has increased.
Major economic victories have been won over the past two years. But for much of this election, Republicans haven’t talked about those victories. We did not defend our arguments.
The Caller responded by writing, “Who listens to Ted Cruz and Mark Levin on Fox News when it comes to what voters actually want or feel?
“Levin continues to argue for a deeply unpopular war on a network with declining ratings. Cruz just spent the midterm elections campaigning for GOP candidates, while the Liberty and Security PAC reportedly spent nearly $200,000 on private air travel for him. Why would Americans listen to you?” » added the grandiloquent message.
Levin responded by writing: “The Daily Qatarlson burps. Imitates Al Jazeera.”
Editor-in-chief of the Daily Caller Amber Duke has made clear in recent weeks that it is besieged by criticism from the right over the media’s editorial shift.
“I have faced many vicious attacks throughout my journalism career, but nothing compares to the disgusting and sexually degrading attacks directed at me and my colleagues at @DailyCaller for speaking honestly and fearlessly about Israeli influence and the deeply unpopular war with Iran,” she wrote the Monday before Election Day, adding:
But if you know anything about the caller, you know we don’t bow to bullies, pressure campaigns, or brazen attempts at cancellation.
Maybe they’re so upset because they assumed we were part of their “team.” They were wrong. The only team we’re on is Team America.
And if they think this is going to change our coverage, they have seriously misjudged us.
Following the GOP’s midterm elimination, Duke added, “In a just world, everyone who called the Daily Caller a traitor for warning that the war in Iran would hurt the GOP with midterm voters or acted like my midterm predictions were delusional or overly pessimistic would apologize, but alas they will blame ‘podcastistan’ or whatever for the GOP’s turnout depression.” GOP. We’ve been telling them what’s going to happen since February and none of them wanted to listen.
