Fox News contributor Guy Benson warned on Tuesday that legacy media was likely to aid the Kamala Harris campaign, turning the last 100 days before the 2024 presidential election into a “three-month honeymoon.”
Benson explained his position during a recent appearance on Fox Business with host Stuart Varney, adding the following caption to the video clip he posted via X: “In the 2020 election cycle, Kamala Harris built her vision for the country from scratch. Her ideas and proposals from that presidential campaign represent her authentic beliefs. She’s lying about them now. Proceed accordingly.”

“I think the news media is going to try to make this a three-month honeymoon, I really do,” Benson said. “I think that they’re going to occasionally do a bit of journalism, but for the most part, they are going to try with the rest of their party — the Democratic Party — journalists and their fellow activists are going to try to drag her all the way to November without serious scrutiny.”
“Now, whether they will succeed at that, I’m not so sure,” Benson continued. “Republicans are going to do everything they can to highlight Harris’ positions, and make no mistake, Stuart, her 2019-2020 cycle positions are her real stances. That was when she was free to pick any position that she chose, when she was starting from scratch, running for president, and offering her vision for the country. And the vision that she painted was a radical left-wing vision, even to the left of a San Francisco Democrat like Nancy Pelosi. Totally non-pragmatic, way out there, and I think offensive to many of the voters who will ultimately flip this election one way or the other.”
This, Benson said, was why Harris was “sprinting” away from her previous positions and statements at every opportunity — “but they’re all on tape in her own words.”
A number of media outlets have already done exactly what Benson suggested, helping her put distance on her responsibilities regarding the crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border.
