Schumer, Jeffries ask Murdoch to stop Fox hosts lying about 2020 election

[Tennessee Hillbilly]

From The Hill:
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) have sent a letter to Fox Corporation Chairman Rupert Murdoch asking him to stop Fox News personalities from “spreading false election narratives,” warning they could lead to “further acts of political violence.”

“We demand that you direct Tucker Carlson and other hosts on your network to stop spreading false election narratives and admit on the air that they were wrong to engage in such negligent behavior,” Schumer and Jeffries wrote.

The Democratic leaders point to Murdoch’s deposition testimony in which he acknowledged several network hosts “endorsed” false narratives about the 2020 election being stolen and that he and other Fox executives didn’t stop them.

4. Why just about 2020 election how about stop lying period, about everything. Or better yet

tell them to shut it down in US, move to another country, perhaps like Russia, they love their commentators there and Putin will encourage them to lie to the people of the country, only on his approval of course.
