Fox News Is Furious That CNN Isn't Being Sued For Airing Trump Election Lies - Ring of Fire



Fox News CEO Lachlan Murdoch is reportedly furious that CNN hasn't been hit with defamation lawsuits after Donald Trump lied about the 2020 election on their network during last week's town hall event. If Murdoch genuinely doesn't understand the difference between what happened on CNN and what Fox did then he is far too stupid to be running a news network in the first place. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains the differences between what Fox did and what happened on CNN.

while CNN's pundits for the most part, from what I recall called Dump's lies as lies in real time.

That doesn't the excuse the decision to hold *rump's rally in the first place.

Thanks for the thread TexasTowelie

Trump himself was the source of lies on CNN, big difference. Besides, there is another possible defamation suit coming from E. Jean Carrol against Trump, since he slandered her yet again during the CNN debacle. Shut up Lachlan Murdoch!

First, he's a rich kid who grew up with massive wealth and who coasts through life effortlessly.

Second, he's too stupid to notice his own ignorance, much less correct it.

Third, he believes his daddy's bullshit.
