As we told you earlier, the DNC has backed out of plans to hold one of the party’s presidential debates on Fox News:
Bret Baier's response to the DNC on pulling a debate from Fox News is PERFECT. Bonus? Daily Kos founder STILL mad at Tom Perez https://t.co/1FXGEwfhvR

That’s really a shame. When it comes to fairness – our news product speaks for itself. We will continue to cover this 2020 race fairly & will continue to invite Democrats- Republicans & Independents on to talk about key issues & substance with our very large viewing audience https://t.co/z0TdftcVmz

But Brian Stelter certainly disagrees as evidenced by a segment on CNN that sounds as if it was a talking point fresh off the DNC’s printer:
LOL, @BrianStelter defends DNC banning @FoxNews from hosting debates: "But every night in prime time, Democrats are dehumanized. They are attacked relentlessly by Fox News prime time hosts. It was hard for me to imagine a Democratic primary debate taking place in those hours."

Self-awareness doesn’t seem to be a Stelter strong point:
Brian should look at what Erin Burnett, Anderson Cooper, Chris Cuomo, and Don Lemon do in primetime to conservatives who don't hate the President, Republicans, and Trump supporters. Talk about left-wing bias and vitriol toward those not on their side — CNN has it!

Wow.
I heard him say this live and I blinked many many many times

Hmmm … by this rational NO Republican should ever go on any networks that spend 93% of their reporting SLICING, DICING, EXCORIATING every @GOP including Trump & every associate, cabinet member or nominee!!

Weebles should stop watching Fox all night if he's going to cry like this.

His lack of self-awareness is breathtaking. And I don't even watch Fox or any cable news much for that matter. https://t.co/Dr1QiB4MDB
