Assistant to the President Peter Navarro has been alongside Donald Trump for more than a decade, as a trade policy architect, relentless defender and even an adviser sent to prison for refusing to violate the president's executive privilege.
So when he received a text message in July from a star anchor at Fox News suggesting the storied TV network fancied by millions of conservatives might underplay a major address by the 47th president on election vulnerabilities, he sprung into action.
The text message was from longtime Fox Business anchor Maria Bartiromo, host of the network's popular Sunday show, offering an explanation why Navarro wasn't going to appear on her show the morning after Trump's big speech as he had hoped.
The text, obtained by Just the News, was a screenshot of an internal communication among Fox News executives stating the network officially was not promoting the speech or planning morning-after coverage even though Trump was releasing newly declassified government memos detailing intelligence agency concerns dating to 2020 about election machine and voter registration data vulnerabilities.
"Hi--We don't want to promote it or push to the speech at all," the screenshot of the message stated. "We don't want to do 2020 election segments at all Thurs or Friday."
Navarro said the message was clear to him, so he sent it up the chain inside the White House, hoping Fox News chief executive Suzanne Scott would be held accountable for the network's decision.
"This is unconscionable. I did what duty required. I received information that Fox and Suzanne Scott were censoring a major speech and I passed it on," Navarro told Just The News in an interview Friday night.
The episode in mid-July reportedly is at the center of a weeks-long drama inside Fox News that led to this week's decision by Fox to permanently remove Bartiromo from its airwaves.

Fox NeverTrump News is a bunch of Bush holdovers.
Fox News is changing their name to Fox Puppet Show, hosted but Hunter Biden. Since they don’t do news, might as well come up with theater….
And that is accurate as far as it goes. But in reality, Fox is packed with influential people in their organization who are not our friends, and not friends of conservatism.
They are people who have more in common with the NYT and CBS than they do with any other variant of media outlet.
We can accept there are some differences, but deep down, I believe what you said holds true, and we should keep in mind that there are more similarities between Fox and other media outlets hidden under their skin that we must be wary of.
WATCH NEWSMAX!!! Especially at night.....WAY BETTER than FOX!
They “reluctantly” support Trump.
They aren’t outright enemies like CNN, MSNBC, NYTs, but they aren’t friends/allies either.
Trump really wasn’t the GOPs first choice. You can tell who they wanted. They put them center stage, literally! LOL
Trump’s only saving grace is that he knows how to manage the media extremely well (better than anyone I can remember). What people see as ridiculous and presidential (making Denmark the 51st state), is really his effort to control a media narrative that is entirely stacked against him.
should say “unpresidential”
But I heard she was not ousted and has hired an incredible legal term to prove it. They have the receipts!!
Trump is the reason for everything that happens in the world.
COVID? It could only happen due to Trump.
EL NINO....biggest ever. Clearly it is due to Trump.
Maybe DNC War Room News Packet Distributors are sending FOXNEWS Useful idiots praise packets for 'giving both sides'. Strange how DNC War Rooms "Journalist Manipulators" NEVER give 'thanks for giving both sides' crapola to CNN or MSNBC... Odd, that Bret falls for it every time. Easy to butter up? Jesse, Hannity, Laura and Greg aren't fooled, but 'the five' is going downhill... as is a lot of the NEPO kids there.
I tried. Didn’t care for it.
I cut the cable tv in 2020 and have not watched a second of network or cable tv news since.
The Reason: Management learned that Bartiromo texted internal network editorial guidance—specifically a directive instructing the network not to air certain election conspiracy theories—to White House officials to deflect blame for why those claims weren’t getting coverage.
