Stephen Bannon Back On SiriusXM


Former White House chief strategist Stephen Bannon has returned as a regular host of Breitbart News's daily radio show on SiriusXM, "Breitbart News Daily," according to a statement from SiriusXM.

The Hill reports Bannon will host the daily radio news show for the right-wing outlet on SiriusXM's Patriot channel, which also features other conservative hosts such as Glenn Beck and Mark Levin.

Bannon was ousted from the White House in August by chief of staff John Kelly. Since then, he has returned to his old post at the right-wing news outlet and declared open war on the GOP establishment.

The release from SiriusXM announcing the move said "Breitbart News Daily," which launched in late 2015, was a "must-stop destination for candidates seeking the 2016 GOP nomination."

In the release, the company also announced a new lineup of programming for the channel developed around "political thought leaders" such as Sebastian Gorka, President Trump's controversial former aide, as well as several other Breitbart contributors.

“During the 2016 campaign, Steve empowered SiriusXM Patriot listeners to have a voice and be part of the electoral process,” SiriusXM Vice President Dave Gorab said in the release. “The result was a lasting bond between Steve and his audience, who have eagerly anticipated and awaited his return to radio.”

SiriusXM also announced that Breitbart News Network will make a major expansion in its radio programming on SiriusXM, launching a new daily weeknight show and additional weekend shows, all airing on SiriusXM Patriot channel 125.
