Dear Editor,

Slow your roll. Do you even realize how your article about the DNC barring Fox News from hosting democratic debates is itself a prime example of WHY Fox News shouldn’t host? You quote the DNC’s decision as being “a shame” but address none of the numerous examples the DNC cited about your publication’s clear partisan bias. Sure, it’s great that Fox has a few journalists with enough “journalistic integrity and professionalism” to host the debates, but still, all anchors at a news agency are supposed to have integrity, not just some special few. Fox News as a whole is so overtly biased that their version “journalistic integrity and professionalism” has become synonymous with Republican favoritism.

It’s impossible to guarantee that any Fox reporter’s ‘integrity’ won’t shift during this election cycle because these days any anchor who pleases Trump could be up for a job promotion. Just take a look at the list of former Fox News contributors turned White House staff: John Bolton, Heather Nauert, Mercedes Schlapp, Tony Sayegh, K.T. McFarland, Scott Brown, Richard Grenell, John D. McEntee, Georgette Mosbacher, and Anthony Scaramucci. It’s so long I bet even your eyes glazed over reading it. With so many connections to Trump, how can any of Fox News’s reporters be trusted?

What’s “really a shame” is that as long as Fox News remains biased, any reporters that may have journalistic integrity will be written off by the public as biased just by association. Instead of touting around the names of a few good journalists, Fox News should focus on improving its own integrity. Maybe then the DNC might reconsider its decision.
