FOX News personalities lied to their viewers; Meadows texts reveal

[UCmeNdc]

Fox News personalities were slammed after Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) read into the congressional record text messages sent by network personalities on Jan. 6 urging then-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows to get Trump stop his supporters from storming the capitol on Jan. 6.

The FOX network — and its stars — were blasted for privately blaming Trump for his insurrection while publicly blaming Antifa.

1. MSM should really focus on this!

2. Liz Cheney is trying to purge the Republican Party.

It's going to be interesting when she's calling the shots in that party. Not that they won't still have odious positions on the issues, but at least the Trumpers will either be gone or subdued. Can't wait to see how she deals with Jordan, Brooks, Cawthorn, Cruz, and Hawley, among others.

3. Isn't "Cynicism and Dishonesty" their internal mission statement?

4. These emails prove everyone at FOX knew Trump was in full control of the 1/6 insurrection.

He organized his pack of bloodthirsty traitors, incited them to a fever pitch and then sent them off to murder Pence and Pelosi. It's only logical FOX News personalities believed only Trump could call off his dogs.

5. But Do Those Meadows Texts From The Fox News Stars Provide.....

them cover from being part of the coup?

They where appealing to Meadows to have TFG shut it down.

Won't they use that to say - see we weren't in on this plan. We wanted TFG to stop it.

Don't their texts inoculate them from any colusion with TFG or the plan?

6. But why did they go on FOX News and say ANTIFA and Black Lives Matter were the true rioters?

They knew these were all Trump supporters and Trump was their leader. Why not report this information to their viewers?

7. That's Just Fox News Being Fox News....

They're absolved from being 'part and parcel' to the coup - but they're still true to the Mission of Fox News.

8. Fox News has been part of the slow motion coup for years.
