A Fox News town hall with Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) went south on Sunday when the presidential hopeful started attacking the network over its abortion coverage.
Her rant against Fox began after a former pediatric nurse asked about her position on late-term abortions.
Instead of offering a response to the question, Gillibrand blamed Fox for talking about the “red herring†of infanticide, devoting more than six hours to covering the abortion debate.
"What we have created, unfortunately, is a false choice and a false narrative," she said. "And Chris, I want to talk about the role that Fox News plays in this because it's a problem. I can tell you before President Trump gave his State of the Union, Fox News talked about infanticide."
"Infanticide doesn't exist," she said, before host Chris Wallace interrupted.

I couldn't believe Wallace wasted an hour of time interviewing her.

Well it was kind of a limp attempt, but at least he did try to challenge her.
A better line would have been 'are you saying that points of view which differ from your own should not be heard?'

I'm thinking that the odds are good with 23-24 candidates that we can get a real melt down style rant out of one of them....
