‘Live Updates: Trump's legal team criticized by Rush Limbaugh'
Take a look at Fox News’ front page report on the matter today:
‘Live Updates: Trump's legal team criticized by Rush Limbaugh-Fox News, Nov. 23, 2020.
“Rush Limbaugh knocked President Trump's legal team for underdelivering at last week's widely-hyped press conference alleging widespread voter fraud that stole a "landslide" victory from their client.
“During his radio show on Monday, Limbaugh began by knocking the legal team's efforts to distance itself from Attorney Sidney Powell, telling his listeners "It's a tough thing to deny that she was ever a part of it because they introduced her as part of it. I mean, she was at that press conference last week.”
"The problem with that press conference last week, folks, it goes way beyond Sidney Powell," Limbaugh said. "You call a gigantic press conference like that, one that lasts an hour, and you announce massive bombshells, then you better have some bombshells," said the syndicated host who is heard on nearly 600 stations.”
Nowhere in the transcript from yesterday’s Limbaugh show does the talk show radio giant knock President Trump’s legal team “for underdelivering at last week's widely-hyped press conference alleging widespread voter fraud that stole a "landslide" victory from their client.”
“Underdelivering” is Fox’s word and not Limbaugh’s.
In fact the word originates in Fox News’ “Live Updates”. There’s no byline on the Fox story because this time it came directly from Mother Ship Fox News.
Here’s a link to the transcript from yesterday’s show.
Is Fox News so desperate to save face from a mega ratings fall that they would try to put their own words into Rush Limbaugh’s mouth?
Did the PR company that Fox hired to pick the network up from its freefall that saw them plunge from No 1 Cable News network to No. 3, while still spiralling downward?
One thing for sure, el Rushbo, who has no problem speaking for himself and who is a passionate supporter of President Trump, is bound to respond to the Fox story on today’s radio show; bound to set the record straight.
Tune in today to hear what Rush really said yesterday.
