Fox’s Wallace Shreds Kayleigh McEnany for Questioning Reporters’ Faith
Townhall ^ | May 25, 2020 | Julio Rosas

Posted on 05/25/2020 10:29:14 AM PDT by yoe

Jonah Goldberg, editor-in-chief of The Dispatch, criticized White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany on Sunday, saying her treatment of the White House Press Corps is "indefensible and grotesque" and akin to being a "Twitter troll" who does not care about her actual job.

Fox News anchor Chris Wallace and Goldberg specifically took issue with McEnany (presenting a list of questions) they should be asking about the Obama administration's approach to Lt. Gen. Micahel Flynn while he was under investigation.

"I have to say that if Kayleigh McEnany had told Sam Donaldson and me what questions we should ask, that would not have gone well," Wallace said.

There are many questions yet to be answered because of the lack of reporting on the left.


They won’t be answered by leftist reporters in my lifetime. Ever. The left is 100% committed to propaganda with this President and committed to the death to the reputation of Obama.

You and I will hear the truth and answers to the many questions we have, but realistically less than half the country will hear the truth from the media. They could spin that “it is not raining” in the middle of a monsoon with a straight face.

They are liars. They are not journalists unless journalism has morphed into the art of spinning every story for a desired outcome. They are propagandist. That is what we should call them.

It's not like there is some agreement about what is "socially acceptable" in these cases.

McEnany is expressing her opinion and Wallace is expressing his.

He's saying he didn't like it, or wouldn't like it if he were in the press room, and he can do that.

They shred no one. They whined about how the press isn’t being worshipped anymore

Did Wallace shred McEnany with his sharp lisp?

If Wallace was a real “journalist” he would wonder why these questions aren’t being asked. Why isn’t he asking about all the corruption surrounding the investigation of Flynn?

Okay. forget the term "socially acceptable". Let's use the word "appropriate".

McEnany is expressing her opinion and Wallace is expressing his. He's saying he didn't like it, or wouldn't like it if he were in the press room, and he can do that.

Again, I'm not saying that Wallace can't voice his opinion. Of course he can.

I'm saying that what Wallace said was inappropriate. And I demonstrated why I think it's inappropriate and why I think that what Kayleigh said was appropriate.

McEnany is right that journalists should be asking these questions. Wallace is right that journalists resent being told that they should ask these questions.

Okay, I looked at your first post.

Wallace isn't just saying that Journalists resent being told what to ask. Wallace included him self in the group. Wallace resents what Kayleigh did.

Sure. He's expressing his personal feeling as a journalist. He can do that. You and I can disagree. Notice I'm not defending Goldberg who thinks he's doing more than just expressing a personal opinion.

I bet wallace doesnt have the walnuts to say it to her face. She’s preparing the scathing comeback as we speak. She’s hyper prepared and will absolutely send him like a scalded dog!

I don’t think MacEnany will be press secretary in the long term.

I doubt very many average Americans really know who these two are. I doubt if very many Americans would care what their opinions are. As with all the media they play to the eastern establishment and that is about it. Irrelevant is what they really are.🤔👎

Ya know...I hate Fox News, Chris Wallace, Neil Cavuto, Charles Gasperino, Arthel Neville, As soon as I see their faces, or, hear their voices I change channels immediately.

Fox News should wake and realize no one watches or listens to them at all...period!!!

Weekends are brutal during the days with Eric, Arthel, Neil, Leland, Gillian, etc. It’s no different than MSNBC with late night exceptions.

I clicked over to Fox News while waiting for the start of a movie elsewhere. Happened to catch the Wallace/Goldberg bashings of Kayleigh and wanted to beat the crap of both of the lying never-Trumpers. ...I really don’t understand why Fox and Fox News continue to employ snarky Dem Wallace...
