Candace Owens Calls Out ABC News Anchors: “David Muir and Linsey Davis Are a Disgrace to Their Profession Should Be Fired Immediately” (Page 5 ) | September 22, 2024

As with most things involving Candace Owens, her comments ignited a social media firestorm. Hashtags like #DisgraceToJournalism and #StandWithMuirAndDavis began trending, with both sides of the political spectrum digging in their heels.

“Candace Owens is just upset because her guy didn’t get away with lying on stage,” tweeted one user in defense of Muir and Davis. “Fact-checking is part of a journalist’s job. If she doesn’t like it, maybe she should turn off the TV.”

Meanwhile, Owens’ supporters were quick to point out what they saw as a double standard in media coverage. “Candace is right,” tweeted a conservative commentator. “If this was a debate with Joe Biden, the moderators would’ve treated him like a fragile egg, scared to push back too hard. But with Trump, it’s open season.”

This isn’t the first time Owens has criticized media figures for what she perceives as unfair treatment of conservatives, but this particular battle has gained significant traction, largely because Muir and Davis are considered by many to be among the more even-handed voices in broadcast news. Owens, however, remains unfazed by their reputations.

“Just because someone’s been in the industry a long time doesn’t mean they’re beyond reproach,” she said. “The fact is, Muir and Davis have shown their true colors, and the American public deserves better than biased moderators posing as neutral journalists.”

For David Muir and Linsey Davis, life at ABC continues. Despite Owens’ fiery critique, both anchors remain at the top of their game, with Muir anchoring World News Tonight and Davis continuing to cover major events for the network. Neither anchor has publicly responded to Owens’ remarks, choosing instead to let the story run its course without further fueling the controversy.

However, if history is any indication, Owens isn’t likely to let this one go anytime soon. She has a knack for keeping her criticisms in the spotlight, and it’s possible that this media battle will continue to simmer in conservative circles.

“I’m not going to stop calling out hypocrisy just because someone’s got a fancy title,” Owens concluded in her video. “Muir and Davis had a chance to show us that the mainstream media could be fair and impartial. They blew it.”

Whether or not this latest controversy will have any long-term effects on Muir and Davis remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: Candace Owens has once again stirred the pot, and as always, she’s loving every minute of it.
