Former President Donald Trumpwas not happy with Fox News Tuesday morning after the network showed clips of Oprah Winfrey endorsing his opponent.
Trump called Winfrey a “divider” and should be “ashamed of herself” for supporting Vice President Kamala Harris, The Hill reported.
But Winfrey wasn’t the only entity to receive Trump’s ire.
“You know who else should be ashamed of themselves is Fox,” Trump said as he voted in Florida. “‘Cause I’ve seen Oprah on Fox about 50 times making the same statement, and I think it’s a disgrace.”
Trump continued “everybody thinks Fox is so pro-Trump. They’re not pro-Trump at all.”
This is not the first time Trump spoke out against Fox News.
He also criticized the network for running Democratic campaign ads, adding he was going to air his complaint to
Rupert Murdoch, who owns Fox News.
Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum, Fox’s election night anchors, didn’t seem phased by the criticism.
“If you see his Truth Social posts, I don’t think there’s a lot of discrimination,” Baier said. “We’ve covered the election fairly. That’s just part of the deal with the former president. … We’ve been at the focus for a while now, and that’s OK with us.”
