Hegseth: If Twitter bans me, they’ll ban anyone
‘Fox & Friends’ weekend co-host Pete Hegseth on Twitter suspending his account.
Fox News host Pete Hegseth reacted to being banned from Twitter after posting part of the Pensacola, Fla., attacker’s manifesto, including a portion that gave radical Islam as a motive.
Last week, Mohammed Saeed Alshamrani, a Saudi aviation student, killed three people at Naval Air Station Pensacola, 20 miles east of the Alabama state line.
On “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” host Tucker Carlson on Monday said Hegseth was suspended for purportedly “violating company rules against threatening or promoting terrorism.”
Hegseth said he doesn’t understand that explanation, in that he was just sharing what the attacker had written in his manifesto.
If you were still on the fence about the loyalties of Fox News management before now, maybe this will tell you what you need to know.
Hegseth: “If we live in a country where we can’t know why people attack us and why they did it, why are we here?”
There is an internet “rule” I saw mentioned at another forum which says that anyone who posts like an enemy of America may be treated like an enemy of America, despite their denials or other evidence they might present.
That rule applies to Fox News, imo.
