Fox News internal war widens with Mark Levin challenging Ed Henry On Ukraine
American Thinker ^ | 10/01/2019 | Peter Barry Chowka

A second front in the internal war at Fox News that is pitting news and opinion personalities against one another broke out into the open on Sunday. Unlike the first on air skirmish last week, in which Tucker Carlson and Shepard Smith went at it – each attacking the other on his own show – this time the conflict pitted two Fox News personnel against each other in a hostile exchange live on the same program.

The venue was Sunday’s early morning weekend edition of its Fox & Friends program. Mark Levin, the conservative author, attorney, and radio talk show host whose own program Life, Liberty & Levin airs Sunday evenings on Fox News, appeared live from his Levin TV studio to comment on the Democrats’ rush to impeach President Trump. Soon after the interview started, Levin got into it with one of the show’s three co-hosts in New York, Ed Henry, who used to work at CNN. Henry recently returned to work at FNC after taking several months of medical leave after donating part of his liver to his critically ill sister who needed an organ transplant.

The 13-minute segment began on an upbeat note with program co-host Pete Hegseth introducing Levin as “the great one” – a nickname given to Levin by Sean Hannity. Levin then took five minutes to lay out his case criticizing the Democrats’ efforts to impeach the president based on the infamous July 25 phone conversation between Trump and Ukraine president Volodymyr Zelensky.

It was then Ed Henry’s turn to ask Levin a question. Henry, it should be noted, is considered a Fox News news, as opposed to Fox opinion, person. His challenge to Levin, repeated twice, appeared to provoke Levin. Henry:

Levin should go head-on with Chris Wallace. Ed Henry was not nearly as sniveling and snotty as Chris Wallace prefers to be.

Ed Henry is an Anti-Trumper light. He keeps his bias at check. Since he has returned from donating his liver to his Sister, he had buried his bias. However Sunday, it was in full show.
Ed Henry is an Ant-Trumper. PERIOD.

So you’re okay with a president asking another president to dig up dirt on a candidate?


Big difference between “ dig up dirt” and carry out your responsibility to investigate corruption.

The recently revealed treaty great backup for this overall conversation, and I’m sure we don’t need any president saying.

I’m now going to remind you of our treaty of xxx , so don’t misinterpret anything I say about a topic that involves our working with each other in the best interest of our countries...

Thats what these snakes expect, and doesn’t happen that way , as the key is for them to feel comfortable with each other first, then get to the stuff that affects both countries.

The fact that this new president ran on a platform of riding the Ukraine of corruption is also being misused by reporters at all networks....

Every time I see Ed Henry on TV I remember his 10-month affair with a Vegas stripper a few years ago. He was married with kids so he’s a despicable scumbag in my book.

Kristinn Fischer essentially asked the same question yesterday. I was disappointed as I had thought of her as straight down the middle.


And she smiled after doing that to her senior Fox correspondent.

This is all about pleasing the club, and not the truth .......

That’s why Mark Levin was number 2 under Ed Meese as Attorney General, in the Reagan Administration!

Mark is brilliant and follows DC politics and world events closely, especially things relating to the U.S. Department of Justice!

BTW Ed Meese is still around and still sharp as a tack! It’s a shame our physical bodies are unable to keep pace with some brilliant minds!

I’ve seen O’Reilly and Geraldo go at it. Levin is great.

90% of their words are scripted for them and appear on a teleprompter. The on-air people are actors.


So true. I often “ lecture” them to take out their earpieces, turn off the teleprompter, no notes, and then lets have a discussion to see who really understands the topic...

The masses get fooled thinking all of this stuff is extemporaneous when in fact as you so duly note its scripted....

Always appreciate your take on topics on the many threads we both frequent

We watch OANN every day. We don’t watch Bret or Martha anymore. I also watch OANN in the morning getting ready for work.

Wasn’t Henry asking a question which got a really good response from Levin? Isn’t that his job?


he could have said. Some say he was digging up dirt, others, he has a duty to investigate corruption. Whats your opinion.

that to me would have fairer than an implied gotcha ......

We also don’t watch Bret. We watch Fox Business: The Evening Edit with Elizabeth MacDonald. She does an excellent job.

Fox needs food-fights and a descent into tabloidism to get people to watch anymore.

Fox works for and is owned our our enemies. They want this POTUS gone.

Turn them off. All them. Even the "good ones," none of whom are your friends.

Not much we deplorables can do. I can’t afford to start a “media company”. Can you?

When Kristin was covering Trump she always seemed totally disgusted with him and her assignment.

I like Ed Henry, but that question was a very sloppy characterization of the situation with Trump and Ukraine.

Ed Henry used the Fake News talking point and mischaracterization about "digging up dirt" in his question.

It's amazing that it's the Fox News "news" guy, Henry, who mischaracterizes while the Fox News opinion guy, Levin, has to correct him.
