Radio and TV host Dan Bongino ripped the mainstream media during his Saturday night TV show on Fox News for manipulating information.
The “Unfiltered” host criticized the media handling of stories involving President Joe Biden and acquitted Kenosha, Wisconsin shooter Kyle Rittenhouse.
“Who could forget this gem when the whole world saw Joe Biden check his watch during the ceremony honoring the fallen U.S. service members who died in Afghanistan?” Bongino said.
He said the USA Today “unleashed its fact-checking army to run inference” on the story.
“Why? Why even draw attention to it? The paper then had to write a correction after their own fake fact-check,” he asked.
Bongino also cited the Kyle Rittenhouse case. Rittenhouse was acquitted of murder in a shooting that left people dead and one person injured.
“Remember before the Kyle Rittenhouse trial, PolitiFact insisted, it’s. ‘Perfectly legal’ for Rittenhouse to carry a gun?” Bongino questioned.
“But during the actual trial, the judge dismissed the gun charge against Rittenhouse. And the fact-checkers scrambled to explain away their mistake.”
