Do we need any more proof that going on the propaganda network Fox is a total waste of time? At the end of his town hall on Fox, Mayor Pete Buttigieg received a standing ovation that even surprised Chris Wallace.
The next morning on Fox & Friends there was no talk of the ovation and the spin was to unleash a propaganda attack on Mayor Pete’s comments on Jefferson and Jackson.
“Meanwhile 2020 hopeful Pete Buttigieg clarifying his comments after going after our founding fathers. What a clown! Ah—should we really be trying to erase our country's history. Will we be a country, without those men we’re trying to erase”

It’s no surprise that Buttigieg’s original comments to Hugh Hewitt were ignored by the Fox & Friends crew and they spliced together an attack against him. This is the pitfall of going on Fox—which is nothing more than a propaganda arm for Donald Trump and the entire Republican Party.
Fox does not exist to help Democratic candidates, as this episode clearly proves.

I like Mayor Pete Buttigieg, but in my opinion he would be better served to avoid Fox. No matter how well Pete comes across on Fox, they will find a way to attack him. Kamala Harris and Elizabeth Warren have already said no to Fox town halls, which in my opinion is the way to go. All of our candidates should follow their lead.
