“Fox will file court brief in support of CNN …”

… that will not get one breath of coverage in Fox News programming.

Can’t wait for Trump’s deranged reaction to this. Also looking forward to how (or if) Fox & Friends addresses the conflict.

So?

I’m not gonna tell Hannity. You tell Hannity!”

Trump is a useful tool/idiot/stooge to Fox News corporate, but the latter is no more loyal to the former than the wolf is to the sheep. They will eviscerate him the instant it is in their business interests.

The brass at Fox News understand that whatever Hannity, Carlson and the morons at Fox & Friends say, Trump is not going to be president for ever, they do not want a precedent for banning a reporter or organization.

Some of them are smart enough to realize it’s a two way street and there will be a democrat in the White House come 2020.

Fox wanted to maintain the pretense that they are some kind of news organization.

This is surprising, if not kind of weird.

Just remember, with friends like these…:flushed:

I’d just like to say one thing since no one else is saying it. In the video, doctored or not, Acosta does not appear violent.

He’s more like a parent who is trying not to let a toddler have another piece of candy.

Fox knows full well that it’s nothing more than a right wing propaganda machine and they don’t want to be kicked out of a Democratic White House.

AS most of the commenters have said - this is a dangerous precedent and it can’t hold up.

Considering that the legitimate media rallied to Fox’s side when the Obama administration was being antagonistic to it (for understandable reasons), it’s the least these scum could do.

Disingenuous ass-covering statement. Took 2 seconds.

Meanwhile they’ll play the doctored tape and imply Acosta is all manner of evil things for 7-8 hours daily until their führer invents a new distraction.

I think the press will have more of an impact if they just collectively stay home the next press availability.

Where will tRump go for his non-fake news now that Fox is actually on the right side for the first time in history. Knickers in a twist!
