Discussion: Fox Host Goes Off On Clinton For Not Participating In An Interview

mkclpi · February 21, 2016, 10:52pm

I applaud her for not talking to FOX. FOX has done some serious damage to this country.

TPM:

Fox News host Chris Wallace called out Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton on-air Sunday for not appearing on his news program.

Wow, Chris, that’s a serious blow - it’s really gonna hurt Hillary Clinton’s electoral prospects with the massive number of Fox News viewers who identify as liberal.

Good for Hillary. She learned early how to stand up to lying bullies. Keep whining. Counterproductive.

austinite · February 21, 2016, 10:57pm

Let me break out the world’s smallest violin to go with Chris’s WHINE.

In a way, it’s kind of funny how Fox News, a network that spends around… I dunno… the entire day every of every day of the week:

Lying about Democratic candidates
Insulting Democratic candidates.
Demeaning Democratic candidates.
Ridiculing Democratic candidates.
Yelling at Democratic candidates.
Twisting the words of Democratic candidates.
Brainwashing their audience.
Promoting REPUBLICAN candidates.

Feels spurned that Democratic candidates - who are currently running for Democratic Candidate for President - don’t want to go to the Fox “Den of Bullshit” to be tarred and feathered by the Fox Propaganda Bullshit Machine.

Gave unlimited airtime to the birthers.
Provided Y’all Qaida in Oregon a sympathetic ear and access to cameras
Cheered on Cloven Bundy

“go anywhere to meet with anyone at any time to find common ground.”…that’s the clip Wallace played. She isn’t going to find common ground on FOX.

OH man…one word for you: Costco.

“Neither of them had the courtesy to even answer our phone calls and emails.”

Fox News as victim. How is that possible?

Both front runners standing up Fox. What are we to make of this?

jaybeeraybee · February 21, 2016, 11:30pm

Sad, sad day when those with the bullhorns have to whine about not being heard.

Chris, tell you what, take one of your whole shows and interview an empty chair… you can even play both roles.

gajake · February 21, 2016, 11:38pm

Chris, you and O’Reilly have a yuuuuge sense of entitlement. Scew you both.

whowho · February 21, 2016, 11:46pm

Why does every newsreader from every media organization feel they are entitled to an interview with the candidates when their primary motive is ratings via a gotcha quote?

tena · February 21, 2016, 11:47pm

You’re a talking head, Wallace, for a propaganda outfit that masquerades as a news channel. Your audience is mostly white, old and Republican. Whatever makes you think you’re indispensable, as if you appointed people to office?

benthere · February 21, 2016, 11:54pm

"Chris, I served with Mike Wallace. I knew Mike Wallace. Mike Wallace was a friend of mine. Chris, you’re no Mike Wallace!"

misterneutron · February 21, 2016, 11:56pm

Pretty hoity toity. Membership fee?! Is there a background check involved?

mollynyc · February 22, 2016, 12:08am

Well said.
Furthermore, what would be in it for her?
Fox’s viewership wouldn’t vote for Hillary if Jesus Himself endorsed her, let alone if she endured an interview with their network.
Such a session would be a feather in Wallace’s cap, but it would be a complete waste of Hillary’s time.

Naturally, he believes the best way to handle this situation is by whining on the air about how mean the Hillary campaign staff are to him.

maxwellsdemon · February 22, 2016, 12:17am

Makes me like her more,her judgment is improving.

navamske · February 22, 2016, 12:18am

Wallace said he had sat down with every presidential candidate except Clinton as his show, "Fox News Sunday" was drawing to a close.

Is that “Wallace said he had sat down with every presidential candidate except Clinton as his show, ‘Fox News Sunday’ was drawing to a close” or “Wallace said as his show, ‘Fox News Sunday’ was drawing to a close that he had sat down with every presidential candidate except Clinton”?

edhedh · February 22, 2016, 12:23am

she said that she would meet with anyone at anytime to find common ground.

fox and chris wallace did not meet those qualifications.

boulderdash · February 22, 2016, 12:31am

After months of constant insults from Fox news and everybody else at Fox, this friggin idiot wonders why she does not show up! What an imbecile! Just listening to him tells all you need to know. He was trying to put her down even now.
If I were her I would showed up and given em all the goddamn “bird”

magical_panda · February 22, 2016, 12:39am

He just wants to ask some loaded and misleading questions so they can record her reaction and then use it to build a little story about how she’s cold and standoffish.
