Fox News host Sean Hannity welcomed Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) to his program for a sitdown interview Monday. KFI AM-640 host John Kobylt shared his displeasure with both figures Tuesday.
During John and Ken, Kobylt took issue with an answer Newsom gave about the number of citizens moving from California to other states. He then argued that the response from the governor deserved strong pushback from Hannity that never came.
“What Hannity should have done is blown the whistle to stop him. Instead, he let Newsom babble and babble,” Kobylt said. “I’ve never thought much of Hannity as a host or an interviewer.”
“I don’t think he does a lot of interviews where he challenges people,” co-host Ken Chiampou agreed. “I think he has folks on that they’re kinda going down the same path he is.”
“They’ll do 20 minutes of filibustering about the same stuff they talked about the night before,” continued Kobylt. “I listened to Hannity’s radio show once, where it was just 20 minutes of Newt Gingerich. Just going on and on and on. I thought Hannity had left the room or moved out.
“It’s not a well-researched show. It’s a lazy show. There’s nothing lazier than letting Gavin Newsom read from a list of prepared statistical accomplishments that somebody at the chamber of commerce hands out…it’s just a bad question and bad handling of a ridiculous answer.”
