Fox is instructing its talent not to call Joe Biden "President-elect" when the network calls race

New: Fox News is instructing its talent not to call Joe Biden the "President-elect" when the network calls the race, according to two memos obtained by @brianstelter and me. The memos say Fox should "stay away" from using the description

The memos emphasized that Fox should report moves by Trump's legal teams to challenge the results. "We will report both sides until there is further guidance," one memo said.
