Trump Blackout at Fox News? This Is the Last Thing He Said on Network Before They Quit Having Him

A new report in The New York Times says the spring and summer have brought an autumnal chill to the relationship between Fox News and former President Donald Trump.

The Friday report noted that it had been more than 100 days since Trump was interviewed on Fox News, which during Trump's presidency became his go-to network for getting his side of an issue out to the public.

The report noted that on April 13, Trump did a phone interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity in which he listed a number of problems facing the nation, adding that they would not have happened "Had we won this election, which we did."

The Times buttressed its case for a falling out between Trump and Fox News by noting the many times the network could have interviewed and did not do so.

Last week, Fox News did not carry Trump's speech in Washington, D.C., at an event for conservatives but did carry one from former Vice President Mike Pence.

The Times quoted "Two people who have spoken to him recently," whom the outlet did not name, as stating that Trump believes Fox News is deliberately ignoring him.

A chill to all things Trump is flowing from the top of Rupert Murdoch's Fox Corporation, the report claimed, citing what it said were "Several people close to Mr. Murdoch's Fox Corporation who spoke on the condition of anonymity."
