Donald Trump Says Fox News Should Be ‘Ashamed’ for Platforming Oprah

2024-11-06 07:45:02

Donald Trump lashed out at Oprah Winfrey and at Fox News on Tuesday morning, saying the channel is “not pro-Trump at all” and should be “ashamed” for running clips of Winfrey.

At a rally on Monday night in Philadelphia, Winfrey warned that if voters do not show up for Kamala Harris, “it is entirely possible that we will not have the opportunity to ever cast a ballot again.” Fox News has covered Winfrey’s remarks critically, calling them part of the “unhinged hysteria” of Harris’ rally.

“We won’t ever vote again if her side doesn’t win? I mean that’s crazy,” Kayleigh McEnany, Trump’s former press secretary, said on Fox’s “Outnumbered.” “We will have another election, as we always do, four years from now.”

Trump was asked about Winfrey’s comments at a press conference after voting in Florida.

“It’s ridiculous,” Trump said. “I’m actually disappointed. I think Oprah has become a major divider in our country. And I think frankly she should be ashamed of herself. And you know who else should be ashamed? Fox. Because I’ve seen Oprah on Fox about 50 times making the same statement. And I think it’s a disgrace what Fox does. Everyone thinks Fox is so pro-Trump. They’re not pro-Trump at all. They’ve put Oprah on all morning long, that’s all I see is Oprah.”

Trump also noted that he had hosted the funeral for Roger King, the longtime chairman of King World Productions, at Mar-a-Lago in 2007. King World distributed Winfrey’s show, and Winfrey was among the mourners at the funeral.

Winfrey has been a leading surrogate for Harris during the campaign, with a primetime speaking slot at the Democratic National Convention. She also hosted a live town hall for Harris in Michigan that featured celebrities like Julia Roberts, Meryl Streep and Chris Rock.

“She’s a divider,” Trump said. “And Barack Hussein Obama is a divider, too.”
