Steve Bannon extended interview on Europe's far-right and Cambridge Analytica

One man who knows how Donald Trump rolls is Steve Bannon. The former chairman of the hard, right-wing Breitbart News website was appointed by Trump as his chief strategist after helping run the presidential campaign. But while the White House may have broken ties with Steve Bannon he's still carrying on with the work that brought him to the President in the first place - flying the flag for right wing populism in the US and across the globe. Our Europe Editor Matt Frei went to meet him.

[@nicholashirayama213]

After watching this I would argue that the reporters intellect is higher than Bannon’s. By his very own definition, Trump is a globalist hogging all the wealth in the world. Is his version of the world going to be any better than the one today? I feel like history has shown results of these experiments all around the world in many different countries...

@@nicholashirayama213 if you going history by then own arguments condem you ,The world's first totalitarian state was formed under a humanist government formed when the radical left wing elements of jacobians hijacked the French revolution.

[@massivereader]

Jesus! Is this what's called an interview nowadays? This is an activist debating and trying to discredit the person being interviewed. He''s constantly talking over the person he's supposed to be _interviewing_ , for Christ's sake.

[@Wartoz]

It's really hard to have your opinions critiqued isn't it?

[@massivereader]

Well, I can't say I agree with much of what Bannon stands for, or his opinions. What I'm critiquing is the interviewer, as in: the person conducting the interview. Typically, an interviewer asks a question and allows the interviewee to respond. The interviewer then asks supplementary questions to clarify that response, or to elicit the interviewee's opinion on a different or even somewhat related topic. The purpose of the interview is to make clear to the viewer the opinions and thoughts of the person being interviewed, not to make clear to all the opinions of the person conducting the interview. This can not be accomplished by correcting or talking over or debating the person being interviewed. To accomplish those purposes we have these other things called 'debates'. Interviews are given to people of great prominence, and whose actions or ideas are affecting the world. Reporters are there to make plain what the person they are interviewing thinks or has experienced. People don't watch interviews to find out what the opinions of the reporter are. A skillful interviewer who disagrees with the person being interviewed can accomplish much by carefully crafting question that expose the very opinions they disagree with, or trip up the person being interviewed exposing logical or factual errors. What I saw here was nothing resembling an interview, the reporter was speaking more than the subject.

[@massivereader]

operacrackers + Agreed. The tragedy is that you can no longer find unbiased journalism, and hardly any real journalism, only partisan hacks trying to generate clickbait.

[@wonbadood8243]

massivereader C4's Interviewers are disgraceful. Have you seen the Cathy Newman "interview" with Jordan Peterson? That Bannon guy stood his ground.

[@massivereader]

Yeah, I watched the full interview. Jordan Peterson kind of shredded Cathy Newman, he shut her down every time she tried to reframe or misrepresent what he was saying, so much so that "So what you're saying?" has become a derogatory meme just about everywhere on the internet. Bannon stood his ground here, but that's not supposed to be what an interview is about. I'd rather have seen more about what he thought instead of really sloppy debate tactics

[@lrmodranoel]

[@JustinCrediblename]

he didn't even deny it

[@pepegalego]

And if Hungary etc fear muslim immigration it's because they see what's going on in western europe and they have every reason to fear islamization of europe.

Since when did Populism become such a shock, horror, derogatory term? Look at the definition- populism noun support for the concerns of ordinary people. Ohh wow shocking!! Not supporting the ordinary man on the street!

[@thechadeuropeanfederalist893]

That's not what populism means. It means to tell the ordinary people lies and blame all the problems on the opposition party referred to as "the establishment" for the sake of getting power while not really doing anything to actually improve the lives of the ordinary people.Instead of educating the people about the real world, populists tell them simplified conspiracy theories to get them enraged against the establishment and offer simple solutions that in practice never work. The italian populist parties for instance want to lower taxes while at the same time increasing social spending, while the Italian state is in debt. That the European Union is actually heavily opposed to immigration, but can't really do much to prevent people from crossing the ocean without violating human rights, populist won't tell you. Instead they will claim the European Union actively "imports" refugees and is ruled by a globalist cabal that wants to replace europeans by africans. That the European Union is ruled by the European council which consists of the elected heads of the member states, the populists won't tell you. And Bannon in particular has no interest in the well being of the ordinary European people. He wants to break up the EU, because that would weaken europe as an economic competitor of the U.S.. Individual countries are easier to dominate economically and politically via divide and conquer than an economic and political union. Take Trump's import tariffs for instance. The EU acting as a block is better able to fight back than if each country would be on their own. Or take american silicon valley corporations that want to monopolize the internet. The EU can break up monopolies like google and facebook, can impose sanctions on corporations for violating privacy rights of EU citizens. Thus why american corporations want to get rid of the EU. American corporations aren't the only ones who have an interest to break up the EU. Russia wants to break it up too. And so you have many foreign interests that support anti-EU populist parties in Europe. Le Pen's Front National is getting money from Russian banks.

[@accavandam9227]

Carla Delastella I respect your opinion but you’re wrong. My definition of populism is taken straight from the dictionary definition. Again- populism ˈpɒpjʊlɪz(ə)m/Submit noun support for the concerns of ordinary people. "it is clear that your populism identifies with the folks on the bottom of the ladder.

[@podjun80]

[@ishmaelforester9825]

It's an extremely vague term. Developments that might be decidedly described as 'populist' go back at least to the Roman Republic.

[@andrewrutherford9255]

The thing about right wing populism though is that it has the facade of looking out for the common person, but it's really just a lie to get them into power so they can do what they actually want to do - hand over everything they can to the rich. The Trump administration is the perfect illustration of this. He spent his entire campaign railing against the excesses of Wall Street and how they have infiltrated our political system only to turn around and fill his cabinet with people from those same institutions and than pass unprecedented tax cuts for the already excessively wealthy

The majority is speaking up after waking up. This isn't about the people in power or the influence of the media (which is left wing and biased). This is the common people who want a change and are going against what has been forced on them, the EU, Islam, and Globalism. The people who are rejecting globalism in favour of patriotism and their national identity, like Italy, Poland, Hungary, and Japan are part of the majority of people in the world that reject globalism. In America, they proved they are in the majority when Trump was elected. In Britain, they proved they were the majority when they voted Brexit. Hollywood has lost billions by putting politics the majority does not want into their movies, Ghostbusters, Solo etc. The People need to be listened to. And the media and Hollywood keep failing because they don't LISTEN to what the majority and common people are feeling. It's easier for the enemy of the people to blame their opponents than accept that they are losing and the people see through them.

If I was interested in their opinion, I would listen to an interview with them by somebody else. It's so offensive.

[@SpywareEverywhere]

it bothered me when the interviewer tried to claim that the right was capitalizing on anger and presented it in a way that made it sound like only the right was doing it. That shows a true lack of understanding (or lying by omission) of the situation in in the US. The left currently are the angry ones: Celebs cussing, MSM with constant race baiting and lying, right leaning pundits and politicians being accosted in restaurants by angry mobs, a nut job leftist trying to murder a group of republicans who were playing baseball, banning people from universities, attacking almost any right-leaning march or protest with physical violence... The list just goes on and on... and the interviewer had the gall to try to claim that it's the right who are benefitting solely from capitalizing on anger.

[@tommyjackson5900]

I think what he was getting at was the right was was taking advantage of angry voters. People aren't happy with the EU because of the economic decline, and there is alot of fear mongering of immigrants from the right. Immigrants are easy targets during poorer times. The thing is, I think people have every right to be angry at the EU and governments in general that have been pushing neo-liberal policies. but reverting to closed borders isnt any better. Nationalism is toxic and dangerous when its taken seriously. Immigrants having been doing alot of jobs that locals dont want to do. Countries rely on them. Im not saying that people shouldnt be angry at the EU. I just wish they wouldnt rush to trust the alt right. Steve Bannon worked at Goldman Sachs, is that someone you can trust more than the EU? The world needs for real socialists, not neo liberalist. Im talking about the Jeremy Corbyns and pre corrupted Bernie Sanders of the world..

This interviewer is just poking at him over and over again. Is this an interview or a debate?? Let him answer the questions you ask.

[@evameszaros9977]

It is extremely annoying, that the interviewer barely let Bannon speak. So typical: they keep interrupting because they don't like what you have to say.

[@johnj.todora4128]

I see this a lot. Not sure why you interview someone that you don't want to hear out. Do the interview and and argue with the guest less.

[@TheFionawilson]

John J. Todora challenge .. we do that here; don’t let the interviewee crack on, spouting their own views. Challenge it, force them to explain the ideology behind their thoughts and opinions and don’t let them move on before they’ve done it. Cuomo is the best you have at this. Don’t fear it, it’s journalism, fact finding and pinning down. Truth comes out under this kind of pressure.

[@evameszaros9977]

I understand your view of challenging the interviewee's view, but there is a respectful way of doing that. I would not call this fact finding at all, in order to find the facts, you would need to hear someone out. This was a perfect example of not letting him answer the questions he asked, because Bannon's answers did not fit in the propaganda the interviewer likes to force on the viewers... I wouldn't call this journalism either, a journalist does not take sides, they should be fully objective.

[@alexk48]

fiona wilson They can't explain the ideology behind thier views if they're interrupted every second. Besides this interviewer kept trying to put words in Bannon's mouth. He even insisted he knew that Bannon was seeking and missed the limelight. Talk about projecting! The interviewer was the one who chose a career that would get his face on TV every night, not Bannon.

Go for it Steve!

[@RobertMJohnson]

25+ years ago when we visited myriad European countries, my friends and I loved speaking with and learning from young Europeans. They both challenged us and educated us as to why their nation(s) and their continent were great. History, culture, values, people, achievements, contributions, erudition, multilingualism, beauty. The spirit and the pride of Europeans was palpable and I thank them for sharing their ideas and culture with us! 25 years later, and I ask: Where do you go, Europe(ans)? What happened to that pride?

[@jongowen6790]

Bannon Is the best...

[@horiboyablemgtow7842]

Steve hasn't forgot his working class roots.

[@SvenAndersson419]

Can the interviewer shut up for 2 seconds?

[@bobbeckel5266]

The interviewer is a fool if he thinks nationalism 80 years ago was a bad thing. German nationalism nearly destroyed Europe. But British nationalism saved it. You can't blame Europe's problems on nationalism. Grow up!

[@IndyPlectrum]

Bannon is brilliant - never saw that before I’m ashamed to say.

[@chrishouston2070]

He got an rookie elected to the most powerful position in the world, and with negatives. Bannon is the most important person in this movement. the media is the enemy of the nation, all nations.

[@s.r.howell1297]

He spent far too much time attacking Bannon on a personal level and not enough questioning and direct counter pointing to Bannon's world view. Of course, it could be that while Bannon's solution is repellent, his criticisms are nonetheless spot on.

[@Inthemeanwhile]

S.R. Howell personal attacking is all the media has left. Globalization is failing. The euro zone and TPP have done more to promote nationalism than Bannon or Trump or La Pen ever could. Bannon is explaining what is the people’s natural response to erosion of sovereignty and currency under the global elite.

[@peterschancel7223]

The problem with Bannons logic is it is misleading . The Economic collapse was caused by Deregulation started by the Savings and Loans Crisis of the 80's to 1995. Reagan and H Bush signed in more financial regulation . 1992 Bill HR -5334 Affordable , Community Housing Act . Bill Clinton repeals Glass / Steagal and Bush 2 allowed the collapse to happen . Learn more as the parallels for the GOP deregulation policy to happen again.

[@MRyzlot]

You missed the point. NO ONE has ever been held accountable - free to do it again. And that is what's happening. JR

[@johnverhoef]

Peter Schancel That is correct. And funny thing is, the current orange White House dweller is paving the way for the next one by slowly removing all segments of Dodd Frank.

[@johnverhoef]

James Ryzlot Dodd Frank was put into effect to prevent that. The orange cuckoo in the White House is now removing this regulation bit by bit, paving the way for the bankers to do the same thing again.

[@jamesramsay1689]

bannon what a man knows exactly whats happening to his brothers and sisters

[@angusmcangus7914]

What Bannon should have said to the interviewer about the Hungarians is that they have in the past been under Islamic rule when the Ottoman Empire controlled vast swathes of their land. They have a collective memory of what it was like. THAT's why they don't want muslim migrants within their borders.

[@p_aulwhite]

Matt Frei, please let the person you are interviewing have the chance to answer your questions. You constantly interrupted Steve, talked over him and sounded more like a politician than a journalist. Poor show..... really.

[@phramghao3950]

This guy sucks...You are fired!!! Great Bannon!

[@SilentAttackTV]

Winston Churchill was a white nationalist. After the war he tried to stop immigration into England, which had become a problem even back then, but no one would listen. Excerpt from Wikipedia: He tried in vain to manoeuvre the cabinet into restricting West Indian immigration. "Keep England White" was a good slogan, he told the cabinet in January 1955.[10] Ian Gilmour records Churchill saying to him, in 1955, about immigration: "I think it is the most important subject facing this country, but I cannot get any of my ministers to take any notice".[11]

[@lassila3]

Could someone tell the interviewer to interrupt Bannon a bit more. Please do it more often.

[@slowmopoke]

Frei was born in 1963 in Essen, West Germany. His mother is Jewish.[

[@TheFionawilson]

slowmopoke and absolutely fucking what? Is that supposed to mean ANYTHING?

[@ayayyay]

fiona wilson it means a lot.

[@TheFionawilson]

ayayyay explanation please?

[@dhrichardson5798]

This reporter is totally outclassed

[@MrMikap74]

This is NOT an interview.

[@maxflight777]

There is no truth in their claim the the EU prevents wars ..... think about the feelings between Greece and Germany , think about the Balkans.

[@benjaminireland7096]

How many times did the interviewer evoke the Nazis? His whole stance boils down to "You can't have a sovereign nation because Nazis!"

[@vjab1108]

GOOD MAN STEVE BANNON you are always WELCOME in the UK.

[@neilvarghese9138]

This is not an interview but a debate.

[@briandenison2325]

Why is the European media calling him far right? If anything he’s an old school JFK Democrat, that is for Main Street not Wall Street.

[@asiraky]

Steve “by the way” Bannon

[@Holypikemanz]

Interview makes up lies and then wants to jump to another topic before Bannon can easily disprove it. "by the way" lol.

[@MikeSandersonVideos]

Holypikemanz exactly haha, he ain't letting em little witch hunt tactics fly by. He'll address it and expose it

[@Drixidamus]

I thought Bannon was evil, and then I listened to him.

[@Drixidamus]

Spent 2 minutes talking about the financial meltdown, 10 minutes on 'don't you miss the power'

[@paulkeogh3518]

The media in the U.K. is not a level playing field anyone who tries to express a view that is against their agenda is shouted down, abused and villifie

[@crashstitches79]

This "interview" is a fucking slaughter in a gold mine. On one side you have an earnest, honest, razor-sharp and perfectly balanced katana. The other side presents itself in the form of a flimsy and clumsy folding pocketknife with no edge grind applied (because better safe than sorry).

[@kieranodea2804]

It's embarrassing how bad this interviewer is.

[@Gothmatix]

True Channel 4 is a propaganda arm. How can people not see this.

[@vito7pt]

Gothmatix we do

[@billtrombley4659]

Who's interviewing who? Either way, watching Bannon destroy this man with logic is a pleasure!

[@daveisbrill]

Ladies and gentleman, this is NOT an interview. In an interview 1) the interviewee tends to do most of the talking, and does not have to 'fight' to get a word in. 2) An interviewer normally has more at their disposal than a series of ad hominem insults. 3) An interviewer, at least a professional one, actually LISTENS to the interviewee, and does not use the time to simply line up another attack.
