Twitter condemnation of Fox's John Roberts for cooperating w/ Trump's attack on CNN

People tweeting about it are saying Roberts should have defended the press and handed the mic to Jim Acosta.

Even Joe Walsh is critical of what Roberts did, and of Trump's cowardly attack on the press.




















And finally, from former Obama aide Dan Pfeiffer:




.@johnrobertsFox had an opportunity to speak up after Trump trashed CNN and NBC, but he didn't because that would break with Fox's strategy. He was once a real reporter, now he aids and abets a propaganda operation for a living

Editing to add another tweet from Joe Walsh:





It'll be fun to watch how my fellow Trump supporters react when the next Democrat President shouts "I don't take questions from @FoxNews" and proceeds to ignore Fox News altogether. I won't listen to their complaints.
