Trump rips Fox News for interviews with Comey, Schiff

Source: Politico | December 14, 2019 | Evan Semones

President Donald Trump on Saturday lit into Fox News’ decision to interview two of his politico foes — James Comey and Rep. Adam Schiff — as an attempt to be “politically correct.”

“Hard to believe that @FoxNews will be interviewing sleazebag & totally discredited former FBI Director James Comey, & also corrupt politician Adam ‘Shifty’ Schiff,” Trump tweeted. “Fox is trying sooo hard to be politically correct, and yet they were totally shut out from the failed Dem debates!”

In a subsequent tweet, Trump likened the conservative cable network to “Commiecast MSNBC” and “Fake News CNN,” saying they’d “die together as other outlets take their place.”

Fox announced this week that the former FBI director and House Intelligence Committee chairman would sit for separate interviews with Chris Wallace on “Fox News Sunday.”

Trump, who often calls and tunes into Fox News shows, has recently disparaged the network for occasionally critical coverage of his presidency, encouraging supporters to seek out alternatives and tweeting support for One America News Network, a lesser-known conservative network.

Trump’s personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani, recently traveled to Ukraine accompanied by the newer pro-Trump outlet.

    Somebody should explain to Trump that Fox is not *his* network and he has no right to dictate the people Fox hosts as guests.

    And by the way, OANN is a pro-Trump network, which does not make it necessarily conservative.
