Fox News cuts into footage of Trump's speech in South Carolina to point out inaccuracies
"Even though he’s entitled to his opinions, he’s not entitled to his own set of facts"
During a broadcast of Donald Trump's speech at a "Get Out the Vote" rally in Rock Hill, South Carolina on Friday evening, Fox News host Neil Cavuto cut into the footage to point out inaccuracies in what was being said by the former president and 2024 Republican frontrunner.
Taking issue with Trump claiming credit for the market going up while, in the same breath, blaming Biden for inflated gas prices and whatever else, Cavuto said, "We'll continue monitoring the president's remarks and I mean no offense to him or some of you who might want to continue to hear him, but I did have to say that even though the former president is entitled to his opinions, he's not entitled to his own set of facts."
The dominion lawsuit has them scared, rightfully so
They know trump isnt as popular as in 2016, and are erring on the side of caution as well
They don't care about his overall popularity, they only care about his popularity with their viewing demographic, and he's as popular with that demo as he's ever been. More so, honestly.
Remember Trump won more votes in 2020 than 2016, and his popular vote percentage rose by 0.7%. The fact he still had that much after 4 years of his shit tells you everything you need to know about these voters.
That was the most rigged election year in America since Tamany Hall, and he still lost
I read: "The Dominion" and DS9 instantly took over my mind.
If only Jeffrey Combs would come take Trump to another quadrant of the galaxy.
My understanding is they could play all the videos of Trump saying bullshit they want, just not assert it themselves. They could repeat it but be careful to say “Person x alleges this” rather than stating mistruths as fact.
I don't know if this is so much them being scared, the vibe I'm getting here is that the anchor finally feels like he can get away with being a bit of a real journalist, when before he would be reprimanded by the network.
