Ron DeSantis (R-FL) Takes on the \u200c&#8221;Corporate Press&#8221;<\/h2>\n<p>Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), a presidential candidate, is\u200b shaking up the media landscape with his new strategy. While he is engaging in interviews \u200dwith <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/3-democrats-the-media-are-thirsty-to-have-back-in-politics\/\" title=\"3 Democrats The Media Are Thirsty To Have Back In Politics\">legacy news outlets<\/a>, he is not holding back in\u2062 his criticism of the &#8220;corporate press&#8221; during his campaign.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;I think it\u2019s very clear the corporate press in D.C. and New York, they do not want me to \u200cbe the\u200b Republican nominee, because they know\u2062 that I will beat Biden soundly,&#8221; DeSantis said. &#8220;But\u200d more important than that, they know I will actually deliver on all these important issues that so \u200bmany Republican voters care\u2062 about.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>DeSantis&#8217;s remarks were in\u200b response to reports highlighting \u200dhis \u200dcampaign&#8217;s early challenges, including doubts from Republican donors about his ability to defeat former President Donald Trump in the 2024 GOP race.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;They\u2019re going to \u200bshape this any \u2062way they can to try to knock \u200dme down. But I\u2019ll tell you\u2063 what, once our voters figure out, and many of them are \u200dstarting to, that I\u2019m the guy the\u2063 media\u2063 doesn\u2019t want, that will\u2062 end up helping me, Hugh,&#8221; DeSantis said. &#8220;Because our voters \u2063understand how these guys operate. And if\u2063 that becomes more and more apparent, I think it\u2019s going \u200bto give me a boost.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Despite \u200cthe media scrutiny, DeSantis recently broke tradition\u200c by granting an interview to CNN host Jake Tapper, a legacy news \u2062outlet. This move\u2062 came as former President Trump hosted his own town hall with\u200d Fox News, revealing his involvement \u200cin the \u2064Jan. 6 Capitol riot \u2064investigation.<\/p>\n<p>Tapper questioned DeSantis about the state of \u2064his campaign, considering reports of staff firings and maxed-out donor contributions. DeSantis emphasized his \u200dfocus on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/nevada-to-hold-first-presidential-primary-of-2024-election-cycle\/\" title=\"Nevada To Hold First Presidential Primary Of 2024 Election Cycle\">early nominating states<\/a> and building a strong organization.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re focused on building an organization. You \u2064got to get \u200cpeople to come out in the middle \u2064of January\u2063 in Iowa to caucus for you,&#8221; DeSantis told Tapper. &#8220;That is not \u2063going to make the same \u2063type of splash as if\u200b you were\u2063 trying to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/ron-desantis-attacks-corporate-press-amid-new-media-strategy\/\" title=\"Ron DeSantis criticizes 'corporate press' in media strategy shift.\">run\u2063 ads\u200d nationally<\/a> or do those other things, and so we&#8217;ve been making really good \u200bprogress.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>While DeSantis trails behind Trump in \u200dnational polling, he remains the closest rival, with a\u200c 35-point gap. The upcoming Republican National Committee primary debate presents a crucial opportunity for DeSantis to demonstrate his appeal to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/8-times-ron-desantis-stood-up-to-the-media-and-went-viral\/\" title=\"8 Times Ron DeSantis Stood Up To The Media And Went Viral\">primary voters<\/a>, especially after weeks of negative headlines.
