Did Fox News every mention the prank call to Gov. Walker?
I was watching Howard Kurtz's "Reliable Sources" this morning and he stated that Fox News made no mention of the prank call that exposed Scott Walker.

So I googled it:

This is on their website so I am not sure if it WAS mentioned on TV.

Great Van Susteren mentioned it (her name comes up in the prank call)

and of course on this outlet they.....wait for it.... attack the messenger

The Buffalo Beast blogger who prank-called Wisconsin Republican Gov. Scott Walker, falsely posing as billionaire David Koch, has written some edgy - some may say offensive - articles in the past. For the publication he edits, Ian Murphy has written such pieces as "F*** The Troops," a dissertation explaining why he thinks, "the nearly two-thirds of us who know this war is bullshit need to stop sucking off the troops," and "Let There Be Retards," an exclusive look inside a Kentucky creationism museum - while Murphy was falsely pretending to have Asperger's Syndrome.

1. Megyn Kelly brought it up at least twice, Juan Williams discussed it on Hannity.
They discussed it on "Fox News Watch." Those are only the mentions I know.
