Election 2024 Media Winners & Losers: How Joe Rogan & Jeff Bezos Blew It & Charlamagne Truly Became A God

deadline.com:

There will likely not be a winner declared Tuesday night between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump when the polls close. However, even before the results are final, there are some clear winners and losers in this year’s topsy-turvy race for the White House.

Let’s go to the Decision Desk: WINNER: CHARLAMAGNE THA GOD – That Comedy Central show may not have worked out, but the Breakfast Club co-host truly spoke truth to power this election season, repeatedly.

From warning Americans against what could happen after Election Day, Joe Biden’s electoral and cultural shortcomings, and the burning desire out there in a divided nation for less jargon and more straight talk, the Get Honest or Die Lying: Why Small Talk Sucks author was way ahead of the curve.

In piercing on-air interviews with Kamala Harris and RNC boss Lara Trump, Charlamagne owned the curve. Calling out CNN’s “bullsh*t”-spouting Anderson Cooper and the mainstream media in late October for not putting a glaring spotlight on the real “fascist” dangers of a Trump return to the White House, the CAA-repped Charlamagne had one of the defining media moments of the modern era. LOSER: JOE ROGAN – Sometimes supporting Bernie Sanders, sometimes admitting he isn’t someone you should go to for vaccine advice after dispensing vaccine advice, Rogan over the past decade has made a successful, untraditional media career off red meat men, literally and figuratively.
