Former President Donald Trump's discontent with Fox News has reached a boiling point over the network's inclusion of liberal voices.
According to The Daily Beast, Trump took to Truth Social on Sunday to express his frustration with Fox News for frequently featuring Democratic guests on their programs.
The former president's outburst was part of a series of posts he shared on the platform, touching on various topics that irked him. Trump's main grievance centered around what he perceives as an imbalance in media representation.
Trump elaborated on his views regarding media representation in his Truth Social post. He stated:
CNN will not put on a Republican Conservative, nor will MSDNC (sic). But Fox is constantly putting on Liberal Democrats to counter previous guests from the Right, thereby nullifying any message they may happen to give - The Fake News is already unfair enough to Republicans, we don't need it from Fox, also.
The former president's comments highlight his ongoing battle with media outlets, even those traditionally seen as sympathetic to conservative viewpoints.
Trump's criticism appears to stem from recent appearances by Democratic figures on Fox News programs. While he didn't specify which appearance triggered his response, the article mentions that Democratic Senator Chris Coons had been featured on "Fox News Sunday" earlier that day.
The presence of Democratic guests on Fox News has been a point of contention for Trump supporters.
Senator Coons' appearance on "Fox News Sunday" involved a discussion about Trump's recent meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. During the segment, Coons commented on what he described as an "awkward moment" during the meeting, where Trump reportedly bragged about his friendship with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Additionally, the article notes that Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg has made several appearances on Fox News, often effectively challenging the network's hosts' arguments. These appearances by Democratic figures seem to have contributed to Trump's frustration with the network.
Trump's posts on Sunday covered a range of topics beyond media representation. He expressed dissatisfaction with negative political advertisements despite running such ads himself.
In a particularly pointed comment, Trump also targeted Vice President Kamala Harris, stating, "There's something wrong with Kamala, I just don't know what it is—but there is something missing, and everybody knows it!"
These additional comments underscore Trump's continued active presence on social media platforms and his willingness to voice his opinions on various political and media-related issues.
Donald Trump's recent social media posts have highlighted his growing frustration with Fox News for featuring liberal guests. The former president criticized the network for giving airtime to Democratic voices, arguing that it undermines conservative messaging. This criticism was part of a broader set of complaints Trump shared on Truth Social, touching on topics ranging from political advertising to his views on Vice President Kamala Harris.
