Kari Lake Eyes Newsmax Deal, Sources Say

Former local newscaster and Republican candidate Kari Lake is reportedly seeking a return to television following her defeat in her second consecutive statewide race. According to Mediaite, two anonymous sources have indicated that Lake is currently in negotiations to join the far-right media network Newsmax.

This network has gained popularity among right-wing viewers, especially during Joe Biden’s presidency, positioning itself as a prominent platform for conservative narratives. Lake’s move to Newsmax comes after her contentious campaigns, which many observers suggest highlight her struggles in the political arena.

If the negotiations progress, Lake could leverage her previous broadcasting experience to connect with a targeted audience eager for conservative viewpoints. This potential career shift has sparked discussions about the blending of politics and media, particularly within right-leaning platforms aiming to amplify their influence in American political discourse.
