Fox New Host Chris Wallace Warns Twitter Over Trump Fact-Check

 

Fox News Chris Wallace has warned Twitter over their fact-check of President Trump. Warning that if they fact-check him they will now have to fact check everybody.

According to Fox News:

“Fox News Sunday” anchor Chris Wallace joined the “Fox News Rundown” podcast Friday to discuss President Trump’s feud with Twitter, saying the social media giant may have taken the wrong step by “fact-checking” the president’s claims about mail-in voting.

“The danger in that is, once you go down that slope, unless you’re going to fact-check everything everybody says — and Lord knows, are there things the president says that aren’t true? Yes,” Wallace said. “Are there things that Joe Biden says and Democrats say that aren’t true? Yes. So if you’re going to fact check the president, are you going to fact check Joe Biden? If you’re going to fact check, you know, some Republican congressman, are you going to fact check a Democratic congressman? And so it becomes a very dangerous thing.

“[If] you don’t fact check everybody, then people are going to see bias,” Wallace went on, adding that Twitter was running the risk of “becoming a third party in the ring” during a contentious election year and “may regret it.”

“But you can’t do it. You just can’t. And there’s always going to be some bias in what you decide is so false, that needs to be fact-checked. And that just lends itself to the argument that there’s political bias, political favoritism in what you call out and what you don’t.”

Wallace has been critical of the President in the past but looks to be coming to his defense in this instance.
