Fox Hosts Fight On Air
As media outlets continue to push its narrative to the American people, one moment on Fox has now stood out where Fox’s Greg Gutfeld was called out by another Fox reporter who is currently in Ukraine.
According to HuffPost, It all started when Fox’s Greg Gutfeld made light of the invasion in Ukraine by Russian President Vladimir Putin by saying that the American media was only showing one side of the war and they were trying to invoke an “emotional response” for profit.
Then Fox News correspondent Benjamin Hall responded to Gutfeld’s comments and immediately responded on live air by saying, “Speaking as someone on the ground, I want to say that this is not the media trying to drum up some emotional response.”
He then said, “This is absolutely what’s happening. From the cities of Kharkiv to Mariupol to Chernigov, they are being absolutely flattened. And from all corners of this country, people are fleeing for safety.”

It appears that this Russia-Ukraine conflict has drawn an emotional response from both sides of America. So much so that even conservative news outlets such as Fox have hosts with two very different opinions.
President Biden is currently claiming that the United States will not be engaging in any forms of combat with the Russian military. It is also unclear to much of the world as to what Putin’s plans will be going forward.
