Breitbart News Executive Chairman Steve Bannon weighed in on the state of late-night television and Hollywood during a segment on Thursday’s edition of Breitbart News Daily on SiriusXM.
Co-hosting Thursday’s show with Breitbart London Editor-in-chief Raheem Kassam, Bannon noted that late-night hosts Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel were steadily upping their level of anti-Trump vitriol in order to compete with one another, and said Breitbart News’ Big Hollywood section was helping to expose celebrities for how “dumb” they are.
“Andrew [Breitbart] always said, ‘Culture is up-river from politics,'” Bannon told a caller who asked about the influence of entertainment on the culture. “Right now as you know, news is kind of everything, even Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert. To drive viewership, the way that Kimmel and Colbert are competing in late-night right now is to make it very political, very anti-Trump.”

Insult to ver useful cattle, and why is Bannon not still in the White House?
Alfredo? Darn autocorrect.
Bannon was the “second” president. No problem there. BTW, furniture have use, actors have none.
When you listen to the things they say when there isn’t a script... you have to ask yourself if they are kidding or if they mean what they just said.
Acting must be easy as hell with the dumbest people on earth doing it.
Bannon was constrained at the WH. At Brietbart he is not.
Just two words......Celebrity Jeopardy.
Over-inflated sense of self is a hazard of celebrity. I can see how it happens. Still, a good agent should follow their clients closely with a tazer and administer a jolt every time they venture outside their narrow field of “expertise”. Constant reality checking is essential.

That just adds credence to an observation I made many years ago when contemplating how they are so easily led and it seems the more talented they are, the deeper the affliction;
Actors are so malleable because they have invested so much of who they are to being someone else according to a script that they eventually have no recollection who in the hell they were to begin with. Their whole world view extended to nothing more than the next script that they feel they need to recite on queue to get their next paycheck.
Didn’t Bannon make his money from Hollywood?
I love this Bannon.
Totally agree.
Maybe Wolfie could play better with a teleprompter.
Their skill is pretending to be someone else. Use emotions to make emotional scenes. There are a few smart actors, but most reallly are mindless, emotional nuts.
I took a week long screenwriting workshop once and we were told not to add details about physical characteristics of characters because if, for example, we wrote that a character had blue eyes, actors with brown eyes wouldn’t try out for the part.
“why is Bannon not still in the White House?”
‘cause he can’t say and do the things he’s doing now ...
Ask them to explain Tom Cruise in the role of Jack Reacher.
“Didn’t Bannon make his money from Hollywood?”
he made his money by accepting a slice of an ownership package of a group of new TV shows that hadn’t yet caught on and had dubious value at the time, in lieu of actual money when a client he represented couldn’t pony up the cash, but Bannon still wanted to help the guy do the deal anyway.
One of those shows, Seinfield, hit it big the very next year and went on strong for 5 more years after that and then went into syndication, where it continues to make billions. THAT’S how Bannon got rich.
