Fox News host hits back at Trump over Chris Wallace criticism: Enough 3rd grade name-calling

https://thehill.com/homenews/media/492446-fox-news-host-hits-back-at-trump-over-chris-wallace-criticism-enough


Jedediah Bila, weekend co-host of "Fox & Friends," criticized Trump for his "3rd grade name-calling," adding that Wallace "is doing his job."

"Enough with the 3rd grade name-calling. Chris is doing his job. The news should not be any president’s friend, ally, or buddy. If it bothered you when Obama complained about Fox News, but you’re silent on this complete nonsense, then just stop," she tweeted Sunday afternoon. "Seriously. Enough."

The president had lashed out earlier in the day at Wallace, referring to him as a "Mike Wallace wannabe" in a tweet referring to Wallace's father, the legendary CBS journalist.

"Just watched Mike Wallace wannabe, Chris Wallace, on @FoxNews. I am now convinced that he is even worse than Sleepy Eyes Chuck Todd of Meet the Press(please!), or the people over at Deface the Nation. What the hell is happening to @FoxNews. It’s a whole new ballgame over there!" he wrote.

Click on Bila's tweet. Of the first couple dozen responses, every response sides with Trump and against Wallace.

right now, including from the White House, for Bila to be fired.

and our president is immature calling people names. Even sadder is we have grown adults that don't see anything wrong with it.
