Fox News commentator Geraldo Rivera asserted Wednesday during The Five that other media networks are overreacting to this week’s election results.
The panel was discussing the news of Republican Glenn Youngkin’s stunning gubernatorial victory in Virginia on Tuesday, a state that President Biden won by ten points just a year ago.
“I hate-watched CNN, MSNBC. I watch everybody with the sound off. And the other networks were so gloomy,” he said. “Other networks were so gloomy. They were so depressed. They had big frowns. And even everything looked blue and black. They were very depressed. This is not that big a deal.”
Rivera cited his hometown of Cleveland as an example where a young progressive beat the old-line Democrat in the runoff for Cleveland mayor.
