Fox News just cut away from the Trump campaign presser after @PressSec
made the “explosive charge” of widespread voter fraud without any “proof” to back her claims. @TeamCavuto
said he would dip back in if McEnany provided any specific evidence.

Fox News just cut away from @PressSec, saying the network could not in good conscience continue to air her false claims, for which she has provided no supporting evidence.

I saw it live.

1. Wow!

[lisa58]

4. +1

[MelissaB]

6. Yeah! I was shocked.

[AkFemDem]

2. The divorce is real.

[rustysgurl]

3. Get ready for more tweets from the man-child. n/t

5. Writing On The Wall

They know the ride is over & they're getting off the train.

[David__77]

7. So, there is clearly a coup plot.

I'm glad that there's some sign that even Fox News won't support it.

8. Neil Cavuto

Savior of democracy? I don't think so, but thanks for at least spending some time with the truth for once.

[42bambi]

14. As "they" say, better late than never. And coming from Fox it is a good start. nt

[wnylib]

28. They're just covering all bases to

pull in viewers beyond their usual base.

One Biden is in office, they will revert back to form if it pulls in enough anti Biden viewers.

[NewJeffCT]

38. He does it about once per year

I guess this was his day in 2020.

(He had a great rant a year or two ago about Trump's constant media bashing)

[Walleye]

9. I think they just hate the United States they're doing their best to ruin it

[C Moon]

35. That "they" is Putin.

[Walleye]

36. Correct. And his team of American Republican collaborators

[C Moon]

39. Agreed...and creepy as hell.

[Walleye]

40. All those years we put into fighting the cold war for nothing

I grew up hiding under my desk for air raid drills. And being scared to death during the Cuban missile crisis. And now we’re just giving him the keys to the White House. And destroying our own government as well. I can’t stand it

11. Orange Jackass

Is now being abandoned by Fox. Not fun for the man child.

[42bambi]

17. He still has Qanon - but they're being stifled now as well. Loser.

[malaise]

12. Looks like Rupert is running scared across the globe

About fucking time

[maxsolomon]

19. Clearly they've handed down a directive that Trump's on his own now.

Hannity will still coddle him, no doubt. Starting tonight.

[ResistantAmerican17]

26. Coddle is certainly a kind word a feller could use... I have no class so

I’m going with the assy kissy term.

[MyOwnPeace]

31. Well, I hope you......

didn't "blow" that ASSessment! Senator Lindsey would be upset........

[wnylib]

29. Since Australia is giving him a hard time,

maybe he's more cautious elsewhere now.

[AngryOldDem]

13. Must have been some primo bullshit...

if even Fox turned away.

[Ferrets are Cool]

15. And in other news, they are skating in Hell.

[AwakeAtLast]

16. I think I just saw a pig

Flying clear over my head!

[central scrutinizer]

37. Fox News and "good conscience" in the same sentence?

Pigs are flying, hell has frozen over....

[Upthevibe]

18. You know every now and then Fox hosts do something

that make me feel they're human. I think Neil Cavuto is one of the one's who, like Chris Wallace, has the capacity to be a real journalist (unlike Carlson and Hannity).

[treestar]

20. They keep using the word legal

as if any vote for Joe was illegal.

[lastlib]

21. Gee, this has never stopped them before......

I may have seen one of those flying pigs myself!

[Blue Owl]

22. Thank you for not licking Donny's gold toilet

[Fiendish Thingy]

23. Now if the prime time shills could only get in sync with the news desk...nt

[Caliman73]

24. Cavuto has been relatively consistent with push back on the most egregious things.

That said, Of course Fox has been one of the major and consistent purveyors of false information since its inception.

The reality is that we do not need "News from a Conservative perspective" there is New, and there is non-news. There is opinion and there is propaganda. Fox is propaganda, with an occasional pushback from Cavuto, Wallace, and before his departure, Shep Smith.

This is damage control. When Fox gets rid of "The Five", Tucker Carlson, and Hannity, then we can start to talk about the very beginnings of any journalistic integrity for that channel.

[Liberal In Texas]

25. Fox can't air false claims? Since when?

Oh, since the election.

[Brainfodder]

27. Almost got my liberal tears when I read a tweet with #BoycottFoxNews

[BobTheSubgenius]

30. When Faux bails on a GOP politician and staff,

said politician is well and truly done..

[pazzyanne]

32. My trumper sister just posted McEnany's entire presser on line.

Let's just say it didn't interest me in the least so I was not even tempted to watch. Pure crap!

[Orange Buffoon]

33. Didn't McEnany promise the press on Day 1 of the job never to lie?

[MustLoveBeagles]

34. Welcome to DU

To answer your question yes, that was her first lie. I don't think Nazi Barbie would know the truth if smacked her in her botoxed face.

[Orange Buffoon]

43. Thanks!

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

41. What did the ONAN network have to say?

It seems to be the only one Trump likes these days.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

42. Cavuto spoke against hydroxychloroquine too.

About five months ago...

[kwolf68]

44. This is partly your Frankenstein Fox

You have propagandized every day for 20 years, lying about Democrats and propping up Republican talking points, listing embattled Republicans as "Democrats", mixing up messages and basically flat out brain washing a mass of people who have helped run our country into the ground with the crescendo move having a ruthless authoritarian, the absolute most despicable human being to ever become President. This is on your hands. I realize it's much easier to be a propagandist from undercover, but the fascist cat is out the bag now and you can't catch him. Lick it up.

[Martin Eden]

45. But ... but ... McEnany said she would never lie to us

Which was, of course, the first of many lies she told in service to the pathological liar who hired her.

Lying is an essential requirement for the job of a Trump mouthpiece, and somebody's gotta do it.
But not for very much longer.
