‘Unhinged’ lefties and conservative commentators ‘falling for the same nonsense’ on Iran war
April 5, 2026

Sky News host Rita Panahi has called out lefties for going out of their way to be “anti-Trump” as they rage against the war in Iran. “We do expect the left to be unhinged, to be hysterical, to engage in all sorts of hyperbole and just go out of their way to be anti-Trump,” she said. Ms Panahi also called out “so-called conservative commentators” who are “falling for the same nonsense” about the conflict in the Middle East.
“But when you’ve got so-called conservative commentators falling for the same nonsense, falling for the same arguments, regurgitating CNN, MSNBC, Guardian talking points like they’re valid and rooted in fact, then that is a little bit frustrating,” she said. “To see this hysteria from segments of the media, really, is a little bit disappointing.”
