"Talk radio host Charlie Sykes admitted in an interview with Business Insider‘s Oliver Darcy that conservative media had “created a monster” in successfully making an entire segment of conservative voters immune to reason and fact-checking.
In an excerpt from an interview with Darcy posted on Twitter Sunday, Sykes discusses how the conservative media had established itself for decades as an antidote to the “mainstream media,” educating generations of viewers to view the major media outlets with suspicion. The result was that there was no longer anyone in a position to fact-check Donald Trump in a way that would reach his base. “We’ve basically eliminated any of the referees, the gatekeepers. There’s nobody,” Sykes said."
