Lawrence O'Donnell Scorches Fox's 'Newest Liar' Jesse Watters Over Trump Jury Claim
HuffPost
O'Donnell took aim at Watters and his predecessors in the primetime slot at what he called "the lying channel."
MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell crowned Jesse Watters as the “newest liar” at Fox News’ 8 p.m. time slot after former President Donald Trump used him to take aim at the jury in his hush money trial.
“The Last Word” host called out Trump for his “juror intimidation” and claimed he violated his gag order on Wednesday after the former president quoted Watters, who has gone through descriptions of prospective jurors and jurors that have been seated.
“‘They are catching undercover Liberal Activists lying to the Judge in order to get on the Trump Jury,’ Jesse Watters,” wrote the presumptive GOP presidential nominee on his Truth Social platform.
O’Donnell, on Thursday, tossed to a clip of Watters’ on-air remarks about the jury before declaring that he takes up a spot on “the lying channel.”
“A network that has been adjudicated to have told [$787.5] million dollars worth of lies in a defamation case. The previous occupant of the 8 p.m. slot had told so many of those lies, that even Fox decided they had to let him go,” said O’Donnell of Tucker Carlson.
