His parents, Joel and Mary Rich, had objected to a Fox article and commentary falsely suggesting their son had leaked DNC emails to WikiLeaks during the presidential campaign. Internet theories that Rich had been assassinated for leaking emails were contradicted by U.S. intelligence reports. The court said that the family had plausibly alleged what amounted to a campaign of emotional torture.

Beckom asked the woman to properly wear the mask, which had “Trump 2020” printed on it, over her face. Disregarding the woman’s remarks, Beckom reminds her to once again wear a mask inside Starbucks. The woman argues that wearing a mask is not a law, saying “I can show you the penal code and everything. I’m not going to wear a mask.”She then leaves the store, only to return and shout “(expletive) Black Lives Matter,” again.

She said the two sides would take stock on Tuesday, which she has staked out as the deadline if a deal is to be reached before the election.

But the Senate GOP bill has failed once before, and Trump himself says it's too puny. For months she has been promising a COVID relief package of more than $2 trillion stuffed with Obama-era stimulus ideas.

During interviews with Trump this summer, Wallace and Jonathan Swan of Axios proved particularly adept at challenging presidential misstatements. “I do not believe it is my job to be a truth squad,” Wallace told a Fox News colleague before the 2016 debate.

WASHINGTON President Donald Trump has directed the Office of Management and Budget to crack down on federal agencies' anti-racism training sessions, calling them divisive, anti-American propaganda.OMB director Russell Vought, in a letter Friday to executive branch agencies, directed them to identify spending related to any training on critical race theory," white privilege or any other material that teaches or suggests that the United States or any race or ethnicity is inherently racist or evil.The memo comes as the nation has faced a reckoning this summer over racial injustice in policing and other spheres of American life. Trump has spent much of the summer defending the display of the Confederate battle flag and monuments of Civil War rebels from protesters seeking their removal, in what he has called a culture war ahead of the Nov. 3 election. Meanwhile, he has rejected comments from Democratic nominee Joe Biden and others that there is systemic racism in policing and American culture that must be addressed. Vought's memo cites press reports as contributing to Trump's decision, apparently referring to segments on Fox News and other outlets that have stoked conservative outrage about the federal training. "The divisive, false, and demeaning propaganda of the critical race theory movement is contrary to all we stand for as Americans and should have no place in the Federal government."

NEW YORK Weeks before political conventions, television networks would typically be confirming hotel reservations, booking experts and pounding the last nails in temporary studios for their top anchors. Networks expect Democrats to host a mega video wall event, with feeds of speakers from across the country. Fox News' Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum, who are booked for the Democrats' convention site in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, are currently the only network anchors expected to travel.

NEW YORK Maybe the trout will be running this week for Fox News' Tucker Carlson. Either way, the vacation he announced on Monday and says was planned in advance should be familiar to Fox viewers who are used to seeing its personalities go away to cool off when the heat is on. His fishing trip is at least the sixth example in a little more than three years of a Fox star's vacation in close proximity to a controversy about their work. Then he said he was going to spend the next four days trout fishing. A Fox representative confirmed the vacation was planned before the Neff story broke.

Neff wrote, "I wouldn't get LASIK from an Asian for free, so no." On June 5, Neff wrote, "Black doods staying inside playing Call of Duty is probably one of the biggest factors keeping crime down." During the years that Neff wrote for him at Fox, Carlson has hosted one of the most influential shows on cable news. In August 2019, a user started a thread titled, "We should just buy Canada and kick the Canadians out." On the afternoon of July 1, Neff started a thread titled, "Two GOP senators propose replacing Columbus Day w/Juneteenth."
