Former President Barack Obama acknowledged that Breitbart News changed the media narrative during the 2016 election.
You know Bannon and Breitbart did something pretty interesting. Now, they didnt create a whole new platform but they did shift the entire media narrative in a different direction in a powerful direction, Obama said, according to the Chicago Sun-Times.
Obama made his remarks during his Obama Foundation Summit in Chicago after stopping by a panel discussion on the Responsibility of Powerful Online Platforms.
He urged people attending the session to solve the shifting media climate and turn it back in a different direction.

Translation: “Democrat Party must ensure that it never again loses is stranglehold on the ‘news’.”
Nobody cares what Obama says.
Pretty powerful for a rinky-dink group of non journalists that nobody takes seriously.
Hymn...Hymn....
F...Hymn....ha!
I know you’re being cynical, but other than those posted to FR or other sites, I know I never went to Britebart.com and read anything. I suspect the former Potus is somewhat underestimating things...as usual.
Bannon and Breitbart should send Obama a “Thank You” Cake every election eve. 8 years of Obama made it all possible!
Not when he was usurping, and certainly not now, but Thank You Breitbart, you may have well saved the nation.
Yeah, Bitch, say his name! BANNON! Destroyed your 8 years of tyranny!
No they didnt liar. Note that you couldnt even include your favorite whipping boy Fox News because they were conforming to the narrative you wanted.
Its funny that you and your ilk spent billions on memes and narratives. That we were pummeled hourly with attacks from the media at all angles, news, comedy, drama, sports and even weather and STILL no one is listening to you!
But its all Breitbarts fault and $150,000 of Russian advertising on Facebook?
Youre a disgrace to this country Obama - you did your best to destroy it and you failed! Go AWAY!
He says that like it's a bad thing.
Obama’s back from Indonesia?
The Clinton's were very good at spreading the wealth but Obama was too selfish and lazy to build a broad, loyal base.
He spread a lot of wealth to a very small, select group of cronies while President, but that's over and so is he.
Yes, please do. The media has always been biased to the left in my lifetime (67), but this raw hatred from the media is far worse than ever. Luckily, there's other media now besides NYTWPNBCCBSABCCNNLAT...
The Progressives are used to having the MSM be 100% complicit in their Left-wing revolution.
If even 1 media outlet — just 1 — gets off the reservation, then everything gets called into question. Obama has identified the problem, and wants people sent to re-education camps.
I don’t go to BB either. Too much crap, too click baity, takes too long to load, interstitial screens come up, etc, etc. But I read digests of a lot of it here.
99% of all news outlets were kissing her ass and doing everything humanly possible to get her elected. Yet little ole Brettbart out-influenced them all.
Article a day or two ago says all this schmuck does is lay around all day smoking dope. This is solid proof of that.
The ‘rats control 95% of the media - and his problem is with Breitbart?
Bronc0 don’t know Mad Mo’.
