Hack.

Bret Baier: "I did make a mistake" during the Kamala Harris interview. "When I called for a soundbite, I was expecting a piece of the ‘enemy from within’ from Maria Bartiromo's interview to be tied to the piece from your town hall, Harris."

[senseandsensibility]

1. Well, that's something

I guess?

[mcar]

2. He must have gotten a lot of pushback

to admit it. Hack.

[wnylib]

27. Yeah, but the "something," is just a pile of BS.

He could easily have said, at the time, that it was the wrong clip. But, he chose instead to talk over Harris, argue with her, and try to put her down for calling out the BS clip.

His newfound "admission" that it was a mistake is a lame attempt to defend himself over against the pushback that he has received.

3. Can't trust your producer, Brett?

Maybe you guys need to get your propagandist shit together.

[PA Democrat]

37. Bret absolutely KNEW the clip he was about to show was a lie and here is the proof

At 19:07 Baier says, "We asked that question to the former president today Harris Faulkner had a town hall (regarding the enemy within remarks) and here is how he responded"

So he claimed he was expecting a clip from Maria Bartiromo but when introducing the clip he says it is from Harris Faulkner's town hall???

He's a liar and after he's caught with his pants down he blames someone else.

39. Thanks for posting this! So he's lying about his known production.

Burning his own production team as he tries to weasel out of the edited ambush that he wanted to convey to the 7MM+ watching. You are quite the journalist and a seeker of truth, Brett.

[jalan48]

4. He got caught lying and didn't expect it to happen. Harris is a very smart woman.

[mcar]

6. I agree. He didn't think she'd call him out on it

[Prairie Gates]

5. You can see the actual smoke coming out of his ears as he says it

The rage is causing a borderline infarction.

[bucolic_frolic]

7. Incompetent, disrespectful bully

Aww ... it's not really his fault.

[EricAblair]

8. Yeah, don't F*ck with Kamala. n/t

[usonian]

9. Gets caught. Blames someone else. Does Trump mug imitation.

One does not get punished for doing crime in the US.

One gets punished for BEING CAUGHT doing crime.

He'll be punished by Fox.

[Deuxcents]

10. That's Ms Harris to you, Bret. She's the Vice President of this country and is due respect.

[PCIntern]

11. Lying motherfucker...

Did he interrupt the interview to obtain the correct clip? No??

Fuck him in his ugly hair.

[mcar]

18. Gretchen Carlson agrees

Now Bret Baier says “his mistake” he ran wrong Trump “enemy from within” clip during interview w/ Harris. Newsflash: When wrong clips run (which happens) hosts can easily say “Sorry that was the wrong clip”. He or his producers would have known it was the wrong one right then.

[OAITW r.2.0]

40. He said nothing to indicate it was the wrong clip.

He could have interrupted the clip and he didn't do it. It was planned. Could have quickly corrected the record that it was an error as soon as it was broadcast,. He did not. Or even made a statement after Madame VP stated her objections....didn't do that either.

He got caught greasing the baseball, but no matter....Kamala hit it out of the park.

12. Smarmy is all I see when I look at him.

[senseandsensibility]

22. Badly dyed hair is

an R male trait.

[FrankBooth]

13. "Wrong clip" my ass

You're a hack Bret, and anyone who didn't know it before knows it now.

[mcar]

25. Uh huh

Fcking hack.

[Bristlecone]

38. Totally agree. No mistake made. All by design

[malaise]

14. That's Vice President Harris to you hack

Not Kamala Harris or Harris
Now eff off

[UTUSN]

35. Was going to say, is he signing himself as "Harris"?

[malaise]

36. Effin rude and disrespectful

I assume that like a good Fux hack, he calls the CONvicted felon president

[JohnSJ]

15. bullshit. Trying to make excuses for his lousy performance.

[mcar]

23. Yep

[Autumn]

16. Liar.

[yellowcanine]

17. Yeah, I don't believe you Bret. You knew exactly what you were doing. And Kamala caught you in the act.

Nice try though.

[Intractable]

19. Baier has a case of the Kubric Psycho Stare.

20. I watched the interview...

... he did not mention the "mistake" at all. He should have immediately told the VP she was correct and FOX erred. It happens occasionally... the host says they either failed to show a clip, or showed the wrong clip. Baier was out to "get" Harris, not interview her. He failed.

[LuckyCharms]

21. WHAT. A. FUCKING. DOUCHE.

He called her "Harris"? I thought I read that wrong, until I read the comments to this thread.

He must think disrespect is manly or something.

[The_Counsel]

33. He May Have Been Talking About/To Haris Faulkner....

She did the interview in question.

Baier is still a smarmy hack, though…

[Freethinker65]

24. So Baier will now air the actual clip of Trump proposing to use the military against Americans for the next few nights

Along with an apology for doubling down during and just accepting Trump's denial during the Harris interview showing a clip of Trump denying he said something he has repeated at rallies and other campaign events? Waiting...

[sdfernando]

26. If that were true

why didn’t he say so right away???….why? Because that was the clip he always intended to play.

[PedroXimenez]

28. these people only tell the truth in their leaked texts

or when evidence comes out in a lawsuit. Which may happen again since this is Fox.

[republianmushroom]

29. The mistake Baier made, was under estimating VP Harris.

He though that he could intimidate her. She ate the little dude a new one.

[spanone]

30. BULLSHIT

[rsdsharp]

31. Sure he was. Just like Limbaugh didn't know a picture of Chelsea Clinton would pop up

when he talked about the White House dog.

[lapucelle]

32. ...

34. His biggest mistake was getting too close to the mule that kicked him in the head. What a maroon.
