Conservative talk show host Chris Stigall applauded Fox News anchors Bill Hemmer and Dana Perino Thursday after White House Economic Advisor Jared Bernstein appeared on “America’s Newsroom” and downplayed the role of inflation in today’s economy.
Stigall discussed Bernstein’s comments on his 990 The Answer show in Philadelphia called “The Chris Stigall Show.”
“And Bill [Hemmer] and Dana [Perino] trust implacably,” quipped Stigall. “They were incredulously listening to this buffoon, so confident in what he was saying.”
Stigall noted that Bernstein was so confident that he had to read prepared comments from someone else.
“Don’t you love when a guy is on television telling you that the IRS is not coming after you,” he said. “Realy good stuff there, Bernstein.”
“Bill and Dana aren’t buying any of this,” Stigall said before playing a clip of Perrino asking Bernstein if he’s ever been audited.
“I’ve never been audited,” Bernstein replied. “I have a great record of paying my taxes. You shouldn’t evade your taxes.”
Stigall noted that Hemmer and Perino pushed back against Bernstein, replying that even tax-paying citizens get audited.
“I think Bernstein is a voice from hell,” added Stigall.
