I am beginning to gain some respect for Juan Williams.
Appearing on America’s Newsroom today, host Gregg Jarrett continued the usual Benghazi talking point, claiming that President Obama failed to call the attack an act of terror. Of course, we all know that’s not true. In fact, the very first statement the president made concerning Benghazi called the attack an “act of terror.” But as usual, that fact does not stop the lies from Fox.
Juan Williams responded, correctly saying that Benghazi is now being used as a “political football “At this point… that I think people are keeping alike to hector Hillary Clinton.”
Later on, Jarrett asked whether it was “undignified” and “embarrassing” of the president, during his pre-Super Bowl interview with Bill O’Reilly, to “blame the the Fox News Channel for the Benghazi problem” and “for all his woes.”
Williams’ response:
I didn’t think that he blamed us for all his woes, Greg. What he said is so often everything that happens we frame as an outright scandal and corruption, and stupidity and just make it as if he’s a bumbling clown. I think that’s fair of him to say.
