Why don’t you take a look at the video and decide on your own?

I don’t think Scott was trying to cover for the left, he just wasn’t too quick on his feet.

I can just imagine how Chris Matthews would have reacted in the same situation, or O’Reilly or Hannety or even Greta!

Jon Scott is a professional journalist. An emmy award winner at that. If he was hosting for Hannity your comment might be warranted, but he was not.

Additionally, Jon's son is an Army Lieutenant and West Point Grad. How many journo's can say that?

I like Scott. He’s a good guy. That doesn’t cause me to think he didn’t screw up royally here. And not limiting this to Scott, it happens all the time on Fox News.

There’s just no real fire-in-the-belly Conservatism displayed by Scott here.

Fox News staff allows the Left to score point after point after point after point without pushing back.

Ultimately that comes off as, “Well, Fox News doesn’t even disagree with the charges made. The charges must be credible.”

That’s not to say that at other times Fox News staff doesn’t push back, but you can’t allow any of the Left’s charges to be aired without pointing out the wildly inaccurate propaganda and letting it be left hanging.

This and the fact that we allow luke warm buckets of horse sweat like Bill Kristol to speak for Conservatives, just kills us over time.

Kristol wouldn’t know Conservatism if it bit him on the nose.
