White House spokeswoman Kayleigh McEnany shot down criticism from Fox News host Chris Wallace for claiming that she was out of line in her responses to reporters during a Friday press conference.During his “Fox News Sunday” program, Wallace devoted a segment to blast McEnany’s performance, saying her remarks about reporters seemingly not being interested in the reopening of churches around the country shuttered during the coronavirus pandemic were inappropriate.“I spent six years in the White House Briefing Room covering Ronald Reagan. I have to say, I never, and, in the years since too, I never saw a White House press secretary act like that,” Wallace said.

“I spent six years in the White House Briefing Room covering Ronald Reagan. I have to say, I never, and, in the years since too, I never saw a White House press secretary act like that,” Wallace said.
Well it's about time then isn't it. I have been around this life for 77 years and have never seen reporters act like they are acting.
What a pack of rude and biased squirrels.

Little Prissie-Crissie-Boy has been 'Out-of-Line' since his Daddy (RIP) stopped Beetch-Slapping him around for being such a Pezze-Poor TV-Personality.
I stopped watching 'Sunday With DoDo-Dumb-Dumb' shortly after this Jerk-Wad took over.

Wallace sure does think highly and loftily of himself; as if he is a wise and ancient sage, not to be disrespected by such impudent youth as the young McEnany.
In short, he is full of himself.

Mr. Wallace, Kayleigh gave you a list of questions to ask. You said that would not go down well. What you gonna do? No host of Fox News Sundays has ever acted like you do, Mr. Wallace, which is why I quit watching it.

Mr. Wallace, Ms. McEnany is correct.
As a consumer of news, she has my respect, and you have lost it.
You are nothing more than a peddler in a marketplace. I am no longer interested in your product.

Ahhhh Sam Donaldson. During the Dukakis campaign I asked him politely 3 times to not stand on my cable. He blew me off. When he straddled it I snapped it cracking the whip. It caught him in the jewels. End of problem.

She just turns the tables on them and they don't like it. She is right. Why didn't they ask the same kind of questions of the Obama administration. Obama never spent hours answering the same questions over and over again. He gave such long winded answers that the Press didn't have time to ask more than three. I think Pres. Trump shows much restraint while they try to trip him up. I like her; I really like her.

I didn’t think anyone could be better than Sarah Huckabee Sanders, but Kayleigh is excellent also. Who ever said that women couldn’t think on their feet? That’s not sexist, my beautiful wife can also. Chris has always been a crashing bore, how did he get and keep the job? Beats me, does anybody still watch it?

These so-called "journalists" have become full of themselves. They think of themselves as honorable and trustworthy, when in fact they are nothing more than corrupt PROPAGANDISTS -- with absolutely no integrity -- for the "progressives" movement.
They need to be held accountable for their corruption of the "news."

Good journalists would never take anything for granted including the presumption that they are above criticism. With a few exceptions, today’s journalists stink.

Chris Wallace is another reason that FOX News is sliding in to the bottomless chasm that holds the other of their Alphabet Soup ilk that has become the so-called news media: Six Years ? Chris; You learned nothing in that time... and bring even less than some of the other talking heads who bloviate between commercials on today's television....As to Ms. Kayleigh McEnany...GOOD JOB!...
Just remember Ms. Kayleigh "...The flack is always heaviest when one is over the target..."
So keep up the good work, and Bombs Away! :-)

Well then maybe your profession needs to grow up and start doing their job instead of making it up as they go along. Freedom of speech is a two way street Chrissy. For every appalling comment that comes from the Left, there is always going to be a response. Responses are not abuse, but your hatred and your lies and smears are abusing the privilege you hold.

The demonrat owned drive-by media is upset because Kayleigh blatantly pointed out the ineptitude and corruption of the same media. Why isn't the same drive-by propaganda media counted as an "in kind" contribution to the Rat party? Hmmm?

Fox rose to the top of the heap by not letting people like Wallace attempt to fool the listeners. There are very few people still left there who think for themselves and are worth watching. The Five used to be a daily habit, now it's just an occasional diversion.

fta: “I never questioned the religious beliefs of the press,” McEnany said. “Many of our journalists are great men and women of faith.
With all due respect for McEnany (I wouldn't be half so kind to this disreputable pack of rabid wild dogs that call themselves The Press) but I need proof for THAT statement!

Well, gee, Chrissy, I seem to remember Tony Snow doing some great slap-downs during the Bush 43 era. The problem is that there is only a need for a press secretary to do that during Republican administrations. During demonrat administrations the press secretary is too busy getting his/her rear end licked to slap down any “reporter”.

Journalists forget that they are actually vendors of news. Their job is to find it, verify it, and present it to their customers. When they begin to think of themselves as elites, who can push narratives and try to sell us lies, they become useless. Worse than useless. They become hacks. Their word is no good. Their credibility is zero.
Wallace should just quit FOX and go on over to MSNBC or CNN, where he can join the other hacks!

In a man's world out here in flyover country a reporter like you would get punched in the face a dozen times a day for acting like the cabal of misfits you are. Chris Wallace is one of the reasons I quit watching Fox with his ugly acne face sitting on his perch judging other people. Kayleigh McEnany just handed Wallace's behind back to him.

I long ago gave up on Chris Wallace and his silly 'Power Players'-- Maria Bartiromo on Sunday Morning Futures is much better. Her show packs a wallop, and she is fearless. Wallace can keep gobbling with the turkies... coz he's a big turkey himself.

I have heard aggressive questioning in the past, but the gotcha accusations pretending to be questions is something new with President Trump.
"Have you stopped beating your wife yet?" is an accusation, as are most of the "questions" being asked lately.

She took Chrissie to school. What an idiotic thing for him to say. Times have changed, Dude. This is not your granddaddy's press corps. They need to be challenged and brought up short. They need to have their bottoms paddled regularly. They are petulant children. Most don't know their nether regions from cavities in the earth and they have dedicated their lives to asking gotcha questions which will diminish the president. How out of touch are you? They need their comeuppance on a regular basis and our new press secretary is doing just that. Most of us are ecstatic.

"Editor of the Dispatch.com Jonah Goldberg in an interview with Fox News Radio's Guy Benson defended comments he made on Fox News Sunday criticizing White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany. Saying to Guy Benson, "She is not there to play the role the press secretaries have always played, which was to yeah, provide the best gloss possible on the facts, but stay within the goalposts of telling the truth. And instead, she's taking her Twitter troll act to the White House briefing room and making our politics all the more of a spectacle." Goldberg continued his comments saying, "She's playing people for suckers. This is a game." "

Chris Wallace has eroded Fox News Sunday. Tony Snow was pleasant, smart, and self-effacing. High-powered politicos and pundits wanted to appear on his program. Wallace is phony and pompously full of himself. This recent comment exposed his unjustified self-regard. And he can't get a decent panel of commentators to save his butt. Marie Harf? Donna Brazile? Really?

Christine Wallace is the reason why we ignore Fox on Sundays.
Don’t they know that by now?
They suck on Sundays!
Is that why they put her there?
To suck?
We wait until later on Sunday night when Gutfeld, Pirro, and Waters skewer the left wing dopes!

Chris Wallace is a third rate journalist posing as a Fox News host. He is nothing more than a sanctimonious blowhard, working for a network that has become progressively more liberal. Tune into One America News (OAN) to get a more realistic view of the world.
