Fox News Accuses Trump Campaign Manager of Threatening Megyn Kelly

In a rapidly intensifying back-and-forth between Fox News Channel and the campaign of Republican frontrunner Donald Trump, the network Tuesday night accused Trump's campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski of threatening FNC host and debate moderator Megyn Kelly.

In a statement, a Fox News spokesperson said "in a call on Saturday with a Fox News executive, Lewandowski stated that Megyn had a 'rough couple of days after that last debate' and he 'would hate to have her go through that again.' Lewandowski was warned not to level any more threats, but he continued to do so. We can't give in to terrorizations toward any of our employees."

I did not neglect to set forth Donald Trump's acknowledgment of the truth of his own words quoted back to him. Donald Trump's resort to political correctness as a defense rings hollow and in any case has nothing to do with whether or not Megan Kelly's question was legitimate.

If you think Trump' s words about women are nothing more than a matter of feminist political correctness you are simply a Neanderthal. Would you address your own mother in those terms?

"...relying on those polls is a fools errand?"

Which is why Trump and his flock tell us about how well he's doing in the on a daily, if not hourly, basis.

BS! Just too that communists leftest Fox network off my shows to record and watch. Had enough of O’Reilly and as for Megyn, she is really sick. Every damn show will let a liberal hack have at least 3/4 of the time to talk against a conservative. I think I am sick of tired muting when these insane liberals spin their crap. Goodbye Fox.

I urge you to give Anderson Cooper and Don Lemon a look, if only for one night.

They've had very fair interviews with nearly all the Republican candidates, the talking heads are varied in opinions. A regular guest is that Amanda Something who is a big Cruz supporter, and she's treated very fairly.

They're civil to each other, not screaming over each other.

They give equal, not more, time to the Dimocrat race, and it's given me some insights into that campaign I wouldn't have gotten from Fox.

I understand Megyn Kelly had a lovely interview with Michael Moore tonight, which I hope you enjoyed. Always nice to get his view on the state of the nation.

Except for Hannity, all other Fox shows have lots of anti-Trump stuff. Don lemon, Chris Mathews & Morning Joe have been more respectful of Trump than the talking heads on Fox News. The moderators from Fox business were much more professional. That was the best debate so far.

Aggred and Agreed. Also respectful is Morning Joe.

And her name is Amanda Carpenter?

“Yes, tell the most conservative network in the country to shove it. That would have gotten Romney plenty of votes, I imagine.

We’ll see how much it helps Trump in Iowa.”

You bring up an interesting point, because it is measurable, in that Iowa is only a few days away. I think this makes Trump look like he is willing to stand up to the media. It puts him in control of the situation, and makes him look presidential.

It is win/win for him, as related in the Scott Adams thread.

Iowa is not far off.

You know, is 6:56 AM here in Bavaria and I can look just a little left of my computer screen and see a gorgeous display of colors as the sun rises over the Alps to my Southeast.

Meanwhile, 6 inches to the right I can shovel flies in cyberspace.

It's all good.

From what we know of Donald Trump it’s pretty likely that he already precalculated the response before he made the choice to terminate this debate.

He is when calculating son of a gun!

No, media clowns will never be favorable to a republican. In my opinion, you use their bias to slice and dice their their ill-informed world view.

You neglected to write Trump’s anti-PC answer after quoting the feminist megyn’s question on two threads now.

Why don’t you tell everyone here why you are hiding Trump’s anti-PC answer?
