Fox News’ Chris Wallace characterized President Trump’s attacks on the press as a “tremendous threat” to our democracy, but also added some critique of the media for their bias against him.
“President Trump is engaged in the most direct, sustained assault on the free press in our history,” Wallace said in a video for the Washington Post. “Since early in the campaign, he has done everything he could to delegitimize the media — attacking us institutionally and individually.”
“And I think his purpose is clear,” he concluded. “A concerted campaign to raise doubts over whether we can be trusted when we report critically about his administration.”
Wallace also referred to the opinion of retired Navy Admiral William H. McRaven, who presided over the missions that captured Saddam Hussein, and killed Osama Bin Laden. He asked him about Trump calling the media an “enemy of the people.”
