Fox Edited Out Trump’s Election Lie From Interview Video, Then Restored It

Posted by Ellen -7859.80pc on August 09, 2021 · Flag

Fox News canceled Donald Trump’s Big Lie about the election when it posted video of his interview with Dan Bongino Saturday night, then, after a right-wing outcry, posted another version of the interview with the Big Lie included. You might say Fox canceled the cancellation.

Mediaite explains:

Trump spokeswoman Liz Harrington went on the attack against Fox News after finding that they edited former President Donald Trump’s unsubstantiated election claims out of an interview he gave to the network.

Trump gave an interview to Fox’s Dan Bongino on Saturday night, where he declared a false victory, railed against Democrats, went into a bizarre hypothetical, and generally stormed through a myriad of other topics.

Bongino also ripped Fox on his radio program today:

“It’s not acceptable at all. I want to make that clear,” he said. “This is not acceptable. Meaning I won’t accept it. And I promise you a definitive resolution that I’m working on now. What it is, we’ll have to find out. But I promise you a definitive resolution. If you think I’m just going to forget about it and pretend, oh it’ll blow over — you clearly haven’t listened to my show through the year.”

It's not clear why but FoxNews.com now has both the originally posted 16:12 video with the edit and the unedited 16:17 video. Neither indicates whether it is edited or unedited.

Media Matters posted the relevant excerpts from both versions. I previously had them posted here but got a policy violation notice from Google about "Unreliable and harmful claims," LOL.

Maybe Fox should work on debunking the lies instead of just trying to pretend they’re not happening. Just a suggestion.

You can see both videos below, from the August 7, 20201 Unfiltered with Dan Bongino, via Media Matters.

Fox cant decide if it’s more afraid of lawsuits or the manic outrage of its viewers. This ‘solution’ is the coward’s path.

FOX is afraid of more lawsuits. I hope they are destroyed, burned to the ground.
