Real-estate magnate Donald Trump fired off multiple furious tweets Wednesday night after a crude remark was used against him on Fox News.
Rich Lowry, the editor of the conservative magazine National Review, declared that the Republican presidential front-runner is attacking rival Carly Fiorina because she emasculated him at last week's presidential debate.
"Part of what's going on here is that last debate. Let's be honest: Carly cut his balls off with the precision of a surgeon and he knows it," Lowry said during a Fox News interview, according to video posted by Mediaite.
Host Megyn Kelly was shocked.
"What did you just say?!" Kelly said. "You can't say that."
But Trump, who has fiercely feuded with both Fox News and Kelly, wasn't satisfied with her admonishment.
He trashed Lowry on Twitter as "incompetent" and "clueless," demanded an apology, and suggested that the Federal Communications Commission should fine Lowry as a result.

We ordinary Americans have been unknowingly propping up our enemies. People buy National Review giving all the two faced faux conservatives their jobs and salaries. Without the true conservative base buying National Review while actually thinking that National Review was sincere there would not actually be a National Review. Rich Lowry would need to get another job.
The same is true of television networks that we support not realizing that the programing they are putting on year after year is debasing to the nation. We have the power because we are the consumers.
She looks evil here.
Jeff Kuhner said that Fox News always asks the guests what they are going to say before they go on the air.
What is a really GOOD conservative magazine that could take the place of National Review?
It’s all about the big shakeup—real conservatives vs fake conservative hangers on of the big money men.
Screw you, all of you phonies!
I think the Koch brother funding of the libertarians was just a way of building a voter base that would take votes away from the social conservatives. Libertarians are just conservative lite.
In general terms, probably.
It's a little hard to believe that they'd pre-planned or coordinated the "cut his balls off" comment.
She's doing fine in the ratings and doesn't need to manufacture phony controversies.
Bad headline. Lowry is NOT a journalist.
national what? Is that some sort of publication or something? What do they do?
Faux news? Are they on tv?
I cancelled the print subscription just after they dumped Derb for no good reason.
Fiorina is a fraud because she was caught on mike making a catty comment about Barbara Boxer’s outdated hair style. So she is offended by a comment that Trump says was about her persona, but Fiorina takes it as an insult to her looks but meanwhile it is ok for her to make a catty remark about another woman.
I am a woman but I do not like women who use their feminine whiles to get their own way. She is the kind of woman who will sulk for days because her husband made a comment that may have been completely innocent but she choses to take it the wrong way. This is one trait which some women posess that does not go well in leadership positions.
Lets see, I don’t hear Trump bring up Megyn Kelly every day and trash her.
I DO hear Megyn Kelly bring up Trump every day and trash him.
So lets see, who put who in the other’s head?
Lowry supported Obama the first time he ran, if you can believe it.
Since we're on the subject. /s
The American Spectator is still pretty good. It carries Jeffrey Lord among others.
