In its latest move to defend its call of the election for Democrat Joe Biden, Fox News cut away from Kayleigh McEnany and the Trump campaign's press briefing Monday outlining evidence of election and voter fraud.
"Woah, woah, woah, I think we have very clear: She is charging that the other side is welcoming fraud and welcoming illegal voting," Fox News host Neil Cavuto said as the network cut away from the briefing. "Unless she has more details to back that up, I can't in good countenance continuing showing you this.
"Maybe they do have something to back that up, but that's an explosive charge to make that the other side is effectively rigging and cheating."
Its reason: Voter fraud cannot be verified? And then they cut away from the actual work to verify voter fraud.
"Unlike our opponents, we have nothing to hide," McEnany told reporters in prescient comments as Fox News cut away, angering some viewers. You can watch the news briefing in its entirety from C-SPAN.
The briefing called out the duplicity in the media for failing to look into voter fraud with the claim voter fraud is "unsubstantiated."
"We are fighting for the rights of all Americans to have faith and confidence not only in this election, but in the many elections to come," McEnany told reporters. "There is only one party in America that opposes voter ID. One party in America that opposes verifying signatures, citizenship, residency, eligibility.
"There is only one party in America trying to keep observers out of the count room. And that party, my friends, is the Democrat Party.
"You don't take these positions because you want an honest election. You don't oppose an audit of the vote because you want an accurate count. You don't oppose our efforts at sunlight and transparency because you have nothing to hide.
"You take these positions because you are welcoming fraud and you are welcoming illegal voting.
"Our position is clear: We want to protect the franchise of the American people. We want an honest, accurate, lawful count. We want maximum sunlight. We want maximum transparency. We want every legal vote to be counted, and we want every illegal vote to be discarded."
