Listen To The Full Interview Below:

Chris Wallace, Host of Fox News Sunday joined Fox News Radio’s Guy Benson Show to discus a story in Politico playbook newsletter about journalists who decline to book guests who voted to overturn the 2020 election.

Chris Wallace said,

“Well, I was asked about it wasn’t a fight that I was particularly looking for, but I was asked about this move. Jake Tapper, one of the people who was doing it on CNN, and he said he’s not going to have anybody who voted to challenge the certification in Congress on January. What was it, January 6th of the vote? He’s not going to have them on his show because he says that they lied about that, lied about Trump losing the election. Then they’ll lie about other things. And my reaction look, Jake’s a smart guy. I have a lot of regard for him. But as I said when I was asked about it was I don’t think moral posturing goes with newsgathering. You know, my feeling is I can agree or disagree with what a person’s particular position is. I certainly do agree with Jake that, you know, the events surrounding January 6th are pretty extreme. But, you know, there are a lot of extreme issues. And I don’t think I should be picking and choosing, you know, who I’m going to have on my show if I think somebody is is a newsworthy guest who’s important for my audience to listen to and may provide some insight to what’s going on.”
