Warren Declines Fox News Town Hall

May 14, 2019 · 11:10 am ET · Leave a Comment

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) turned down a Fox News invitation for a televised town hall and denounced the cable network as a “hate-for-profit racket that gives a megaphone to racists and conspiracists,” Politico reports.

“The network has been inviting Democratic presidential candidates to participate in town halls moderated by its news reporters. Bernie Sanders and Amy Klobuchar already done the events, while Pete Buttigieg and Kirsten Gillibrand are scheduled to. All of them have criticized the network’s coverage of the Trump administration but defended going on the network as a means to reach voters.”

“Without mentioning her rivals, Warren argued that agreeing to go on the network would implicitly help Fox News.”
