A daily roundup of the biggest stories in right-wing media.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

On Monday, conservative media was abuzz with coverage of Sunday night\u2019s Grammy Awards, most of all about the dress worn by a little-known singer. As Sean Hannity\u2019s site explains<\/a>, Joy Villa, who was not nominated for an award, \u201cinitially arrived in a a [sic] white cape, and revealed the red, white, and blue MAGA dress in front of photographers on the red carpet.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Many outlets ran articles featuring multiple images of Villa\u2019s outfit, and some actively praised it. Breitbart<\/em> rounded up tweets<\/a> from the \u201cmany leftists\u201d criticizing Villa\u2019s choice, especially suggestions that she was just seeking attention. If she was, the ploy seems to have worked: The Daily Caller\u2013<\/em>affiliated Smoke Room reports that Villa\u2019s online music sales spiked<\/a> after the ceremony.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
