But I agree that he recognizes it’s a propaganda war and Republicans are on the wrong side of it. He isn’t gonna be a Putin tool.

This isn’t a freedom-of-speech issue, it’s a question of guests choosing what “parties” to attend. Not attending is an important statement to make. Sharing democratic principles on FoxNews is a waste of time for 90% of Fox viewers.

So for today, the news will be Kinzinger refused Carlson—and it will be repeated ad nauseum by Fox devotees themselves. And that’s an important statement to make.

In the information war—advantage Kinzinger.
