Martha MacCallum Rips Scaramucci To Huckabee Sanders

Martha MacCallum’s contentious interview with Sarah Huckabee Sanders was probably more of a sign that Rupert Murdoch is disgusted with Anthony Scaramucci than a sign of good journalism.

MacCallum made Scaramucci’s “profanity-laced tirade” the top story, even as the senate moved toward taking away health insurance from millions of Americans. So we know that Republican politics rather than Americans’ well-being still takes priority.

MACCALLUM: This is revelatory of what’s going on inside the White House and I think American citizens look at that and say, “Gee, is the business the priority here or is it the animus that exists these two individuals (Scaramucci and White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus) at this point?

[…]

The fact that the last 48 hours has been sucked into this fight that’s going on between these two men, it does bring into question whether or not that’s an effective communicator.

Believe me, Fox News hosts don’t just happen to speak that way to White House secretaries. But MacCallum was not the only Murdoch employee going after Scaramucci and the Trump administration tonight. Check out Friday’s New York Post cover:

I owe many years of gratitude to NewsHounds. They watch Fox News so I don’t have to.

Martha — you’ve sold your soul for 30 pieces of silver. Most on the right who deify Jesus still have no idea what that means. Do you -?

…and the GUTLESS COWARD Hannity kisses Mucci’s ass. If a Dem White House had an episode like this Hannity would be on all weekend.

I was surprised Huckabee-Sanders took the promotion to press secretary. While her style of redirecting all questions to an unrelated Trump press releases is relatively smooth, reading her eyes her practiced lying appears to be torturing her.

Like her pressers, this interview is hot air filling a time slot, an informational black hole, a complete waste of time.

Don’t pay attention to the dumpster fire on the front lawn of the White House. It’s really a staff weenie roast. Please join us in singing “Kumbaya”. Have a s’more.

The interesting story I heard on NPR this morning – H-R certainly won’t mention- was Priebus had hoped to last a year in the White House so he could work with Congress on Trumpcare. Whoops!
