Fox’s Howard Kurtz Takes Umbrage With NY Times Report That Trump is Persona Non Grata at the Network: ‘No Edict Whatsoever’ Against Him
Mediaite ^ | Jul 31st, 2022, 2:18 pm | Joe DePaolo

Amid a torrent of negative press for former President Donald Trump in Rupert Murdoch-owned outlets, and a splashy new A1 New York Times story suggesting that he’s being frozen out at Fox News, one prominent host on the network insists that there’s no ban on the former commander in chief.

In a commentary on Sunday’s edition of MediaBuzz, Fox News host Howard Kurtz took umbrage with the Times report, and stated that Trump is not forbidden from appearing on the network.

“A front page New York Times story this weekend strongly suggests that Fox News has not interviewed Donald Trump for over 100 days because the Murdoch family, whose Wall Street Journal and New York Post have run highly critical editorials, is said to have soured on him,” Kurtz said. “But I can report, there is no edict whatsoever against having Trump on this network.”

Kurtz added that he recently has asked Trump to appear on his own show.

“I have reached out myself with an invitation some weeks ago and people close to the former president confirmed he has not said yes to any Fox show or been turned down after asking to be on a Fox show, just for the record,” Kurtz said.

Well, if Jeremy Peters wrote it, if it appears in the NYT, and Mediaite regurgitates it, you know it’s bullsh*t https://t.co/H3v8d2Spdt— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) July 31, 2022

I use a smart TV with the provided youtube from comcast and I watch 30 min or 1 hr clips of Fox News after they've already aired

The intro is some independent that says. "MY TUBE, NO ADS, PLEASE LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE" . . . . . and THAT source never shows a video that Fox is showing, but splashes a still photo of Trump over the video being broadcast.

No idea why, but it is an anomaly I've accepted.

If you bust your ass to to Tele use Pence but don’t even mention Trump’s on the same day, you are censoring.

As I expected it’s a bunch of hooey from the usual unreliable sources.

OK, when is the last time he was on, and when is the next time he is on? Time to put up or shut up.

Everything is so screwed up. I keep thinking how I feel like panicking about the state of our nation, but I remember Rush saying he would tell us when to panic. But you know what? I just miss the guy. I still cant believe he is gone.

Did the NYT even bother to ask the people at Fox News if the story was true?

Only because it's believable.

The only ones really "taking any bait" are the Fox News groupies.

Nice try though.

Not even close to being believable.

Here is Tucker with President Trump at Bedminster Golf Club over he weekend. I don't see any animosity or fights, just smiles.

There is nothing like “Fox News Groupies” here.
This is not DU. You posted that on the wrong site.
