Fox is Out: Democrats Stir Debate Drama

DNC Chairman Tom Perez ruffled a few feathers this week when he barred Fox News from hosting any 2020 Presidential debates.

His reasoning? Fox is “too close” to President Trump.

In other words, Fox is willing to tell the truth when the rest of the mainstream media twists the narrative to suit the left.

Let’s get one thing straight. Fox News is not a conservative patsy. If they were, Kevin Jackson would still be a Fox News correspondent. Instead, Jackson was fired after calling Christine Blasey-Ford a skank on his own personal Twitter.

Of course, we all know much proof later surfaced to clear Justice Kavanaugh. And Fox didn’t ante up with an apology. But that’s an entirely different story. Again, and again, conservatives have been less-than happy with Fox opinions, which proves they come a lot closer to unbiased coverage than CNN ever has.

In fact, as I recall, CNN twisted the 2016 presidential debates. They were caught red-handed feeding the audience questions in a debate between Ted Cruz and Bernie Sanders. Of course, Cruz wiped the floor with Sanders, so the “help” didn’t do much good.

Later, CNN came under fire for stacking the audience in a Bernie Sanders Town Hall.

Once proof emerged of CNN’s transgressions, one might think they’d be the networked outed from future debates. But I don’t see any news floating around to suggest that.

Instead, Perez decided to ban Fox from hosting any debates next year.

As the Gateway Pundit explains:

Citing a story this week from The New Yorker alleging close ties between FOX News and President Trump’s associates, Tom Perez barred the network from hosting the primary debate.

“Recent reporting at The New Yorker on the inappropriate relationship between President Trump, his administration and FOX News has led me to conclude that the network is not in a position to host a fair and neutral debate for our candidates,” Perez said.

“Therefore, FOX News will not serve as a media partner for the 2020 Democratic primary debates,” Perez concluded in a statement first reported by the Washington Post.

Trump Fires Back

Trump isn’t one to sit idly by while injustice flies around him. So, he wasted no time letting leftists know two can play at that game.


And Twitter caught on Fire!


Fox Weighs In

It seems Fox can’t win for losing. One day they’re crucified as Trump’s closest ally, and the next day they’re billed as leftists in training.

Still, the network handled the news with class.

According to Fox:

“We hope the DNC will reconsider its decision to bar Chris Wallace, Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum, all of whom embody the ultimate journalistic integrity and professionalism, from moderating a Democratic presidential debate. They’re the best debate team in the business and they offer candidates an important opportunity to make their case to the largest TV news audience in America, which includes many persuadable voters,” Fox News Senior Vice President Bill Sammon said in a statement.
