TV News LIES

President Trump on Sunday tore into Fox News political analyst Juan Williams, calling him "pathetic," "nasty" and "wrong."

"Juan Williams at @FoxNews is so pathetic, and yet when he met me in the Fox Building lobby, he couldn’t have been nicer as he asked me to take a picture of him and me for his family," the president tweeted.

"Yet he is always nasty and wrong!"

TVNL Comment: This is a developing story, but not a new one.  Trump's attacks on prominent people of color is as old as his racism.

Unlike fellow Fox News host Tucker Carlson, who declared Tuesday white supremacy is “not a real problem” in America, Shepard Smith says the issue is "without question a very serious problem."

Smith on Wednesday, commenting on Democratic presidential hopeful Joe Biden's speech delivered in Iowa, delivered a counter point. Smith said the former veep marked "the unmistakable rise of white nationalism and white racism in America, and saying that, as president, he will work to fight against it, calling us to our better souls, to recognize that white nationalism is real, that white nationalism is on the rise, that white nationalism is without question a very serious problem in America and beating down those who would help facilitate it and encourage it, because they are an enormous part of the problem."

Carlson addressed the subject during “Tucker Carlson Tonight" Tuesday, saying white supremacy is “not a real problem” in the United States.

TVNL Comment: Carlson is an idiot. He's also a shameless sycophant.

Immediately after President Donald Trump boasted to White House reporters that the United States rakes in billions of dollars from China because of his tariffs, Fox News anchor Neil Cavuto issued an on-air fact-check of the president’s remarks, directly telling his viewers that Trump is wrong.

While taking questions on the White House lawn Friday afternoon, the president insisted Americans farmers are fully behind his trade war and support his latest tariffs on $300 billion worth of goods from China.
