Incoming WH press secretary Jean-Pierre called Fox News ‘racist’ in 2020
Newly minted White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre described Fox News as a “racist” network during a TV appearance in March 2020, according to a clip that resurfaced this week.
“[Fox News] was racist before coronavirus, they are racist during the coronavirus, Fox News will be racist after the coronavirus,” Jean-Pierre said
during a March 15 appearance on MSNBC’s “AM Joy.”
“So there is nothing new here,” she continued. “I think the difference is they are all-in on being state TV for Donald Trump, and so they will continue to give misinformation.”
At the time, Jean-Pierre worked as a political analyst for the left-wing network before joining the Biden campaign a couple of months later. She tweeted out the clip from her personal account and it was still up as of Tuesday afternoon.
