Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives are demanding to know why Fox News did not publish a story prior to the 2016 election about an alleged affair years before between porn star Stormy Daniels and Donald Trump.
House Committee on Oversight and Reform chair Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD) wrote to former Fox News reporter Diana Falzone last month demanding that she turn over any documents relating to Trumps alleged extramarital affairs.
An article in the New Yorker last month alleged that Fox News executive Ken LaCorte spiked the story to protect Trump a claim LaCorte has vehemently denied, saying the story lacked corroborating evidence and that the network was merely practicing responsible journalism, as were other outlets who declined the story.

Add all of their IQ’s together and you’d still be about the level of some mouth breather.
NOBODY SPIKED THE STORY.
This truly was: A CONSENSUAL EVENT/AFFAIR.
These people have no IQ at all.
Yet somehow Trump is the threat to freedom of the press ?
I think Fox should kindly reply:
“For the same reasons we didn’t air the stories of your extra-marital affairs, sir.”
LOL
SNORT.
Judging by the board and the top executives, the uniparty already has control of FNC...
FWIW, I think he’s providing cover, trying to make it appear that has FNC hasn’t gone over to the dark side of the Force.
Why isn’t Cummings ready to apply the same “oversight” idea to the boatloads of stories in NY Times, Wash Post, ABCNBCCBSCNNMSNBCPBS that were completely untrue, unsupported, and based on unnamed or anonymous sources?
Like I don’t already know the answer...the last thing blubber butt Cummings cares about is truth in journalism...
Tel that MF Cummings to GFH.
Hmm. It looks like Ken LaCorte from Mediaite cannot tell the difference between rhetorical (like Trump’s tweet) and actual questions, and regards speculation as a statement of fact. Not too bright, is he?
Although I would love to see the MSM held accountable for basically acting as mouthpieces for the Democrat party. It is hard to think how that can happen while still respecting the first amendment. Require them to print full disclosures? Or maybe just overturn the laws that protect them from consequences for publishing slander. They should not be able to print lies about political candidates any more than they can print lies about private citizens.
I’ll be curious to see whether Fox complies. I wouldn’t put it past them.
Of course it is okay for CNN to spew fecal matter all over the air waves
So when did Cummings plan on going after the LA Times for hiding the Obama donor dinner video or whatever it was called?
_______________
I hear you.
And I wasn’t kidding. Not just the board.
Wow.
“When did a one time event become an affair?”
Where’s the proof that there was even a one-time event?
Giuliani keeps threatening to release an 86-page report if the Rats continue down this path. I wonder if Cummings’ name is in it and, if so, I wonder in what context.
AND ... we’re still WAITING on the list of legislators’ names, and their pay-outs of hush money using our tax dollars. Tick tock. We were promised that list a couple years ago.
“I read more than once long ago that at least one of those little gay fellows wound up not breathing.”
That would be two of ‘em. The mother of one has been trying to get the story out for years, implicating Hussein, but she’s ignored continually.
