Warren says no to Fox News town hall — it's a "hate-for-profit racket"

Mark Frauenfelder 10:57 am Tue May 14, 2019

Senator Elizabeth Warren didn't accept an invitation to a Fox News town hall because she says the company is “a hate-for-profit racket that gives a megaphone to racists and conspiracists.”

From The Washington Post:

“I’ve done 57 media avails and 131 interviews, taking over 1,100 questions from press just since January,” she wrote. “Fox News is welcome to come to my events just like any other outlet. But a Fox News town hall adds money to the hate-for-profit machine. To which I say: hard pass.”
