Fox anchor blasts Mollie Hemingway for naming alleged whistleblower Eric Ciaramella

Fox News anchor Howard Kurtz condemned network contributor Mollie Hemingway for naming the alleged whistleblower on his show.

Hemingway mentioned Eric Ciaramella, 33, a career CIA analyst, on Sunday's episode of Media Buzz and argued that "the media should be in the business of sharing information that is in the public interest." Kurtz, however, disagreed both at the time and on the network's The Daily Briefing the next day.

“I don’t think it’s the role of the media to disclose the identity of the whistleblower,” Kurtz said. “As you know, a name came up on my program yesterday. I don’t think that should have happened. Mollie Hemingway says that she was simply repeating a name that had been bandied about by certain sites, and no one had told her that Fox and other organizations were not using the name.”

Howard Kurtz and Media Buzz is a waste of space on the weekend lineup. Worst show on Fox!

We don’t keep accusers private.

Plus this putz put himself above the president and official policies of the executive branch. Something he had zero right to do. He was conducting politics and going against his own CoC. Behind his back.

And imagine the democrats reactions to this if some military guy did this same thing to Obama or Clinton.

“I don’t think it’s the role of the media ....

OF COURSE it isn’t.

The role of the media is to be an arm of the democratic party.

Everyone knows that :)

I just flushed Howard Turdz from my life.

Cancel Culture, at its finest.

The Ministry of Propaganda sure is going to extremes to keep Eric Ciaramella hidden from the public.

If this had been a whistleblower in the Kenyanesian Usurpation, they would have doxxed him and been camping out in front of his house.

Does this mean that "maverick" on the right isn't in vogue anymore?

Checked my files from the impeachment wars.

Howie Turdz was a "media critic for the Washington Post" at the time.

He didn't criticize hard enough, evidently.

It might be interesting to read his dog squeezins on Rapin Bill from that time...

These media types are idiots. Everyone knows who this arsehole is. He’s not a whistleblower, he’s a leaker passing on hearsay BS. These media jackasses need to get a grip.

,
Brett Baier = Chris Wallace = Howard Kurtz

Not a dimes worth of difference.

They had no interest in the Obama - Farrakhan pics.

Presidents had incredible latitude when Obama was in there. Elections have consequences, they said.

They align themselves with the people trying (illegally) to take out Trump, for good reason.

Yet, Kurtz has no problem violating the spirit of the Constitution!

So, he’s good with Violating the spirit of Executive orders?

Lying POS

Watch FOX castrate the rest of the bunch. Carlson, Hannity, Ingram, and Waters. FOX is dead I dropped it and moved to OANN, it was a good move. Levin is on Patriot on Sirius radio. That, Rush, and this gets me by. Kurtz is a wuss. Molly is the bomb. IMO

Yet they run with stories from Buzzfeed, Vanity Fair, and New Yorker in their zeal to tar Trump.

Seth Rich?

Why is he different than JonBenet Ramsey?

Guess Mollie didn’t give Howie the goosebumps.
