Donald Trump has renewed criticism of Fox News, urging MAGA supporters to watch their rival news channel. His remarks came amid an escalating dispute over the network’s coverage of political opponents.
Donald Trump urges supporters to watch a rival network amid his Fox News feud
Donald Trump criticized Fox News in a Truth Social post, telling MAGA supporters to ditch the network. Trump wrote, “Fox spends more time defending Democrats and putting on their views versus their Republican opponent than at any time in the History of Fox News.”
He added, “It’s ridiculous! Fox News is trying too hard to be Politically Correct! Watch my big Kansas Rally today on RSBN. Great early coverage! President DJT.” Trump has previously criticized the network over its coverage of Democrats, including their interview with Democrat Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed.
However, there is no confirmation of what triggered his response. His comments followed a segment on Fox & Friends, in which host Brian Kilmeade opened the 7 a.m. show talking about Maine Senate candidate Troy Jackson and his “shut up” remark directed at incumbent Susan Collins.
On October 4, Trump accused the network of declining to cover his rallies. He called out Jessica Tarlov, one of the only left-leaning voices on the network, accusing them of letting Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed “talk, talk, talk.” According to Mediaite, Trump said, “They hardly fight him at all. Why are they putting these people on our television networks? Why?”
Trump’s series of remarks on Fox News has escalated the feud, though the Network has not made any comments to address the accusations. Fox News was one of the several targets of Trump on Monday. He also criticized a judge who opposed the government’s work to improve a public golf course in D.C., migrants in France, and posts touting Monday’s Kansas rally.
His latest remarks add to his ongoing criticism of the network, highlighting the growing tension between Trump and Fox News over its coverage of political events and candidates.
