Chris Wallace reveals why he left Fox News, says people started to question truth

[TheBlaze] Prissy Wallace reveals why he left Fox News, says people started to 'question his obvious lies the truth'
Former Fox News anchor Chris Wallace abruptly departed Fox News in December. Wallace finally broke his silence as to why he left Fox News to work at CNN's new streaming service.
"Pay attention to meeeeee"
In an interview with the New York Times — his first since leaving Fox News — Wallace claimed that the top cable TV news network was headed in a direction that is "unsustainable."

"I just no longer felt comfortable with the programming at Fox," said Wallace, who had been at the network for 18 years. "But when people start to question the truth — Who won the 2020 election? Was Jan. 6 an insurrection? — I found that unsustainable."

"Before, I found it was an environment in which I could do my job and feel good about my involvement at Fox," Wallace said. "And since November of 2020, that just became unsustainable, increasingly unsustainable as time went on."

Wallace and stepson of "60 Minutes" creator and former CBS News president Bill Leonard — began hosting "Fox News Sunday" in 2003 after working at ABC News since 1989 where he was a senior correspondent for "Primetime Thursday" and a substitute host at "Nightline." Wallace was previously employed at NBC News from 1982 until 1989. At the age of 16, Wallace was an assistant to legendary broadcaster Walter Cronkite.

#5  "Journalists should not ask questions!" says Chris Wallace.

This really shows how far the profession had dropped. I think it has dropped below Prostitute and may have dropped lower than Junkie in the rankings.

#4  Fox is only 'right' when compared to CNN & MSNBC. On an absolute scale it's more RINO than right.

#3  So a journalist is admitting the notion that journalist are merely hired to report what their elitist overlords say is truth. Saying the quiet part out loud is sometimes helpful.
