Obama roasted for admitting he’s “starved for attention” at night.

Former President Obama Laments Divided Media

Commentary by C. Douglas Golden

In a recent interview with CBS News, former President Barack Obama expressed concern over the divided conversation in America, largely due to the splintering of the media. He longs for a return to a common conversation and a common set of facts. However, conservative outlets like Fox News and Breitbart have been criticized for contributing to this division.

Of course, this got a reaction from Fox News, with Jesse Watters calling Obama “starved for attention.” Guest Kellyanne Conway also dismissed Obama’s remarks, noting how far he has gone down the lefty rabbit hole since his days of “hope and change.”

Despite the media’s love for Obama, conservative outlets like Fox News and Breitbart are keeping the former president up at night. He wants your attention fixed on his ideas and beliefs, and for everyone to agree on a set of facts – just as long as those facts are his.
