TFG Demands Rupert Murdoch Fire Fox News Anchors -- Who Correctly Reported the 2020 Election Was Fair
Former President Donald Trump called on Rupert Murdoch to “apologize to his viewers and readers for his ridiculous defense of the 2020 Presidential Election.” He also insisted that the Fox Corp Chair fire the Fox News anchors who “got it wrong, or were afraid to speak up” regarding what he has baselessly called a rigged or stolen election.
To be clear, the 2020 election that he lost was NOT stolen, and Murdoch and Fox News will almost certainly ignore Trump’s advice which he blasted on social media Thursday morning. Trump wrote on Truth Social:
Rupert Murdoch should apologize to his viewers and readers for his ridiculous defense of the 2020 Presidential Election. How many forms of cheating and rigging does he have to see? He should also apologize to those anchors who got it right, and fire the ones who got it wrong, or were afraid to speak up (of which there were many!). It’s time to get rid of Fake News, and call it like it is!
Fox News is dealing with a defamation suit filed by Dominion Voting Systems. Portions of Murdoch’s sworn testimony were released Monday afternoon and revealed that the Fox Corp chair admitted that some on-air talent endorsed the baseless stolen election conspiracy that Trump continues to promote, despite no reasonable person believing it to be true.
