The 37-year-old South Ben Mayor attacked Carlson and Ingraham on their own network on Sunday evening during his Fox News town hall.
South Bend Mayor and 2020 Democratic candidate Pete Buttigieg blasted Tucker Carlson and Laura Ingraham during his Fox News Town Hall on Sunday night, before receiving a standing ovation from the crowd after his closing statement.
Addressing the questions of bias that have plagued the media organization, Buttigieg called out two hosts in particular. “I get where that’s coming from especially when you see what goes on with some opinion hosts on this network,” he said. “I mean when you’ve got Tucker Carlson saying that immigrants make America dirty. When you’ve got Laura Ingraham comparing detention centers with children in cages to summer camps.
Buttigieg defended his decision to appear on Fox News by arguing that while some of the network’s hosts aren’t operating in “good faith,” many of the viewers are watching “in good faith” and deserves to hear the Democratic agenda.“What we’re trying to do here is different because the moment that we’re in is different. I get that a millennial, midwestern mayor is not what leaps to mind when you think about a prototypical candidate for president,” Buttigieg said.
Buttigieg’s comments about Carlson and Ingraham come after the Democratic National Committee Chair Tom Perez announced in March that the party will deny all requests from Fox News to host the primary debates because “we cannot rely on Fox to host a fair and neutral debate.”
