Bret Baier, Fox’s top “news” anchor, promoted the right-wing messaging around the Durham investigation – even as his own guests repeatedly debunked the supposedly big story. Baier then neatly skipped over the “findings” and played several clips of other media figures noting their lack of substance. And Durham is operating from a premise that the government officials were duped, not that they were in on it. The implication that the data was exploited for a political purpose is a scandal that requires investigation under oath. The media has again revealed itself as putting their thumb on the scale for one side and not the other.
