Here we have Fox News- editorializing that the FBI is committing a coup against the U.S. government.
No that is Fake News. Intended to slander the FBI for the sole benefit of the Trump administration.
Fox News host Jesse Watters criticized Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation at the FBI, suggesting it’s been “crooked from the jump.”
“If that’s true,” he said on Saturday, “we have a coup on our hands in America.”
Jeanine Pirro on her Fox News program on Saturday said that never in presidential election history has there been “as great a crime or as large a stain on our democracy than that committed by a criminal cabal in our FBI and the Department of Justice who think they know better than we who our president should be.”
Fox News host and growing media conspiracy theorist Sean Hannity in June said a “soft coup is underway” in America aiming to overturn Trump’s election. “Sinister forces quickly aligning, in what is becoming now, in my mind, a clear and present danger.”
Again please put the quotations in their full context and then give me a legitimate rebuttal by a reliable source showing how any of those examples got it wrong. Criticism in itself is not fake news. Posting stuff that never happened or happened differently than what actually happened is fake news.
