CNN’s Chris Wallace on Why He Left Fox News: I Have A Problem With ‘Conspiracy and Lies’
Mediaite ^

Posted on 10/09/2024 4:30:49 AM PDT by Tench_Coxe

Chris Wallace, who’s been an anchor and political reporter for half a century, believes the news business has changed drastically since his career began. In those years, he’s held coveted positions at most of the major networks – ABC, NBC, and of course, Fox News. In 2021, after nearly two decades as the anchor of Fox News Sunday, he quit the network for a job at its rival CNN.

On Mediaite’s Press Club, Wallace spoke at length about the circumstances that lead to his departure from the network. “I had no problem with conservative opinion any more than I do with liberal opinion,” he told Mediaite editor in chief Aidan McLaughlin. “But what I do have a problem with is conspiracy and lies. The truth is non-negotiable.”

I have a problem with worms masquerading as debate moderators.

No sour grapes here. Absolutely not. None at all.

No sign of remorse. No shame.
And typically, he seems proud of his treachery and the misery he helped bring about.

The day Wallace left Fox for CNN he immediately improved the IQ levels of both networks

A person who was born into a comfortable life and had connections to a career that gave him financial security and a soapbox is now parading as a champion of the people and an arbiter of truth. Hypocrite.

Chris, when all the other networks were shouting ‘Russia, Russia, Russia’ and parroted Hillary’s paid for anti-Trump lies were you OK with that? How can you possibly label Fox a network with conspiracy and lies when there are absolutely irrefutable facts, documented, that the liberal networks are the agenda-driven ones peddling lies, anti-conservative and anti-Trump hatred, and who ignore or obfuscate all facts that hurt their liberal agenda?

I would love to debate you. Your credibility would be in tatters. Stop being a feckless weasel.

Most of the politicians and commentators literally are whores.
Wallace goes asking with what his audience and bosses want to hear.
Greta’s on Newsmax now, I think she’s made the full circuit at least twice. lib to cons to lib to cons.
And of course Wallace now says the nuttiest conspiratorial crap.
Getting paid millions to sit on television will do that to you.
Plus I’m sure he’s a liberal at heart.

No, Chris is a creature of the left, but he can’t see that.

He left Fox because he is a leftist, just like his daddy - Mike Wallace of 60 Minutes.

The ONLY reason he ever had a job in the “news” business is because of his father. He is a no talent hack. He would NEVER had been hired otherwise. /spit
