It’s not as if FOX News shows are avoiding Roy Moore.
Moore was reported on Twice during FOX’s 11 AM newscast.
Yet a check of @FOXnews finds no Tweets on Moore from those reports.

Funny how the network that likes to complain about the mainstream media avoiding coverage of negative stories about Democrats has not tweeted about Roy Moore for over 12 hours.
Guess it’s a good thing they no longer claim to be fair and balanced.
UPDATE: Fox finally tweeted about its Moore coverage at 2:57 PM ET:

It just so happens that Moore is scheduled to give a press conference any minute. Was Fox waiting for some guidance from the GOP or the White House?
