Anthony Defends Provocative Social Media As Lucrative Commodity
Anthony pushes back on criticism of his online behavior, claiming 'I have a commodity that people want to hear and it makes me money' through his provocative political content.
Anthony mounted a vigorous defense of his social media presence and provocative political commentary during the confrontation. He claimed his YouTube channel generates 'hundreds of thousands of views' and 'thousands of dollars,' framing his online activity as a legitimate business. 'I make money because my opinion being put out there, whether it's on my show or on social media, makes me money,' Anthony argued. 'It's what I believe. It's what I talk about. And people seem to like it.' He challenged his critic to explain what's wrong with monetizing his takes across X, YouTube, and his ABC show. The exchange grew tense when provocative tweets were referenced, including one about Kamala Harris. Anthony doubled down: 'She is.' His critic dismissed the content as 'all regurgitated,' but Anthony countered that his take 'is different than the standard conservative talker.'
