The president does not seem fazed by a blockbuster report on his cozy ties to the conservative network.
Television personality Sean Hannity speaks as President Trump listens during a campaign rally on Nov. 5, 2018, in Cape Girardeau, Mo. By Kyle Swenson Kyle Swenson Reporter for Morning Mix Email Bio Follow March 5 at 5:35 AM Only hours after a blockbuster report reignited a national conversation about the White House’s cozy relationship with Fox News, President Trump doubled down.
“We the people will now be subjected to the biggest display of modern day McCarthyism....which is the widest fishing net expedition....every aspect of the presidents life....all in order to get power back so they can institute Socialism.” @seanhannity “The American Media has changed forever. News organizations that seemed like a big deal are now extinct. Those that remain have now degraded themselves beyond recognition, like the New Yorker,” Trump wrote, citing Carlson as the speaker.
Mayer also reports that a Fox News reporter had confirmed Trump’s alleged affair and payoff of adult-film star Stormy Daniels before the 2016 election. The scoop, however, was shot down by Fox News higher-ups. “Good reporting, kiddo. But Rupert wants Donald Trump to win. So just let it go,” a network executive told the reporter, according to Mayer.
