Chris WALLACE is a wingnut not just a collaborator

[UTUSN]

In today's news item below he claims to be "neutral," but his entire performance record is of wingnuttiness with a barely there veil of being an impartial, high minded journalist. Here he is, all "concerned" as much as Susan COLLINS.

By contrast, in the COLBERT interview he constantly does a little critical dance towards SHITLER before injecting the "but" and quoting a phrase or two of what SHITLER said to mitigate things, giving credibility to a few *words*. It's called missing the forest for the trees. Or it's called being a Vichy collaborator.

Yea, SOME words mean something; others don't.

Chris Wallace: Trump’s Attacks on the Press Are ‘Outrageous’ But Too Many Reporters Are Becoming Anti-Trump Advocates

Fox News’ Chris Wallace spoke with colleague Howard Kurtz Sunday and expressed concern about too many reporters become anti-Trump “advocates.”

After talking about what Kurtz called a “battle for the soul of journalism” earlier in the program, they moved onto Wallace’s serious criticisms of the president’s constant attacks on the press.

Wallace reiterated that he finds Trump’s rhetoric like “enemy of the people” to be “outrageous,” but he also said he’s troubled by how a number of journalists have responded:

“You see some reporters now who have become advocates — I see it in the press briefings now. You know, I was pretty tough in the press briefings with Ronald Reagan and his press secretaries in the 80s, but we were basically trying to get information. Some of the press briefings now I see the White House press corps — it’s supposed to be one of the top jobs in journalism — it’s more playing gotcha or more just trying to get in arguments and advance their point of view. That’s not what we’re supposed to be doing.”

“I think too many reporters have fallen into the role of being advocates and, frankly with this president, anti-Trump advocates,” Wallace continued, saying that journalists need to be able to stay “neutral” and “call balls and strikes.”

3. I've always believed he was a charter member

of the lucky sperm club, trading on his position as son to the famous Mike Wallace.

4. Chris, how can you be "neutral" when they openly pour horseshit down your throat?

5. Chris sold out because he wanted to be an "Anchorman,"

and ABC wouldn't promote him. Fox made an offer and he took it.

7. Yip, same with O'Reilly
