Fox Immediately Blames The Media For Trump Assassination Attempt

How dare anyone report on the fact that Trump's a danger to our democracy? Fox and their allies on the right are going to do their damnedest to try to stop the rest of the media from ever mentioning Project 2025 again now that someone tried to take Trump out.

As Karoli pointed out here, members of Congress began immediately escalating things following the shooting, and this is what we can expect to put up with for God knows how long now from the right.

Pretending that the media has been lying about the threat Trump represents to our democracy in America. Pretending that reporting on that threat, rather than the actual threat, is irresponsible. Continuing to downplay what Trump and the right's plans are to destroy women's reproductive rights in America. And lying about and downplaying what Trump said and did, and what happened during the January 6th insurrection.

Here's the exchange with Fox's Sean Hannity and Laura Ingraham from this Saturday evening as part of their live coverage following the shooting. About the only good thing you could say about it is that they weren't accusing Biden (yet) of putting a hit out on Trump like some MAGA cultists in Congress.
