Donald Trump Jr., the former president’s eldest son, complained that he has not been invited to appear on Fox News in several months, as tensions between his father and the network grow increasingly sharp.
“I’ve noticed even with me, I’ve been outspoken on America First, I used to be on Fox three, four five, six, 10 times a week. I haven’t been on in nine months,” Trump Jr. said on an episode this week of the “Steak for Breakfast” podcast. “Not a call, not an invite, not anything. And so I understand what it appears like they’re trying to do to the America First movement.”
The former president has been increasingly critical of Fox and its chief executive, Rupert Murdoch, in recent weeks over its coverage of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R).
Fox recently agreed to pay $787 million in settlement money to Dominion Voting Systems in connection with false claims it aired being promoted by Trump and his allies following the election.
The network days later parted ways with top prime-time host Tucker Carlson, who like other hosts at Fox had voiced support for Trump on his program, but in private text messages revealed as part of the Dominion lawsuit, bashed Trump and his claims about the 2020 election.
Trump Jr. said Carlson “was another one of those voices” promoting a so-called America First agenda.
