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.”

Alfredo Hitchcocko?
Yeah, I know that geezer. :)

[SmokingJoe]

Exactly.

[Seruzawa]

Dumb as ticks. Like pieces of furniture.

Dang I like that. Gotta keep that alive.

Didn’t say they wouldn’t be cast. Just that the actors wouldn’t be bright enough to try.

[Calvin Locke]

One of the early Hollywood moguls, somebody like Goldwyn or the like, considered actors to be as interchangeable as auto workers.

And should only be paid as much.

Hehe. I was a pretty big fan of Alfredo HItchocko Presents. :D

I’ve been binge reading the Reacher books. Tom Cruise isn’t close to Jack Reacher in any way shape or form. Badly miscast.

[trisham]

Agreed.

[cyclotic]

The one I’m on now has a picture of Cruise on the cover. I just got an Amazon Fire and am reading e-books. Since you never close the cover, you often don’t even know the title of the book you’re reading.

Cruise as Reacher is really miss cast first off Reacher supposed today be 6 foot 5.. Cruise is what five foot six. Teacher is the most Politically Incorrect character I can think of. That totally leaves cruise out.
