Trump to Fox News Reporter: ‘Are You Working for CNN?’
CNS News ^ | 04/02/2020 | Melanie Arter

Posted on 04/02/2020 9:27:17 PM PDT by Kevin in California

President Donald Trump lashed out at Fox News White House Correspondent John Roberts on Wednesday, accusing him of working for CNN after Roberts mentioned that the president was accused of getting rid of the Pandemic Office in the National Security Council.

Roberts was piggybacking off of another reporter’s question about whether Trump would take former Vice President Joe Biden’s call about the coronavirus.

President Trump has correctly perceived months ago Fox News lurch to the left and he’s not afraid to call them out on it.
On a similar note, the White House Correspondents Association had banned an OANN reporter from attending White House briefings the other day.
The President and his Press Secretary rebuffed those media “elite” losers and issued the OANN reporter a personal invitation to attend the daily Wuhan Flu briefings. The MSM went apoplectic over this.

I actually DID think that Roberts had gone over to some enemy media recently, and I am surprised (really) that he still is with Fox.

And this is 1 day after Mark Levin praised John Roberts for being quite fair. He must listen to Levin and wanted to get back in good graces with his fake news buddies.

Roberts did once work at CNN. He was at CBS a long ass time. I would venture 25 years and after he did not get what he wanted to CNN. Meantime he divorced so at CNN began dating Kyra Philips, then anchor and they married. He later left to Fox News and she moved to ABC News. So he did once work CNN.

Per MY observations over several years, I’m convinced John Roberts is a slick never Trumper. Ditto Ed Henry, whom I haven’seen in months. Apparently, in this instance John got a bit careless or gutsy or both, and lost his slickness and tipped his hand. I hope from now on everyone from POTUS on down knows him for what he is.

Well...

FOX has been airing NY Gov Cuomo’s “I Love Me” show every day.

And today they let him interview his half-wit brother Chris, a CNN talking head who spends all his time attacking president Trump.

The phrase “lashed out” is applied far too liberally. It’s like calling a tap on the shoulder “assault.”

***********************************************
Also today (actually , yesterday Apr 2nd) promptly at 7:00pm when Martha Maccallum’s show came on, FNC abruptly stopped airing the LIVE Trump Coronavirus Task Group’s live press event. I switched over to OAN to continue watching it live as Trump was answering questions. Paul Ryan’s malevolent influence is being felt.
