With stunning hypocrisy Newt Gingrich slammed FOX News anchor Megyn Kelly Tuesday night for, in his view, putting prurience ahead of public policy in her coverage of the U.S. presidential race.
Gingrich scolded Kelly for framing her question about Donald Trump's nosedive in opinion polls around whether the Republican nominee is a sexual predator.
She simply wanted to know whether the uncovering of a tape of Trump making lewd comments about women a few weeks ago was a turning point in the campaign, but Gingrich was having none of it.
"You are fascinated by sex and you don't care about public policy," he said.
Then he accused Kelly of a double standard....
...Kelly didn't say those words, possibly because of a double standard but probably because of legal risks.
She might well think both Trump and Clinton are sexual predators, but the fact is only one of them has confessed on videotape that he grabs strangers by the genitals and pops Tic Tacs in his mouth in case he decides to force his lips on a woman.

These MSMer’s don’t seem to realize how much they will stink, and for how long afterwards, when they roll in the gutters.
You don't have to be elected to anything to be considered a public figure.
