Emails show Fox News courting Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis: 'He could host the show'

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis raised some eyebrows in May when only Fox News was allowed into his rollout of a controversial election administration bill.

Although the network denied any involvement at the time, it turns out the unusual arrangement was part of a well cultivated symbiosis.

More than 1,200 pages of emails between the governor's office and the US's top conservative network were obtained by the Tampa Bay Times, shedding light on the unique relationship in an investigation published on Friday.

The Tampa Bay Times found that DeSantis was invited on air 113 times from the week of the 2020 election in November through February 2021, which amounts to roughly once a day.
