After Trump repeated his lie that the 2020 election was stolen, Fox News had to include a statement saying that was not the case.
Trump's prebuttal with Kamala Harris was a disaster.
CNN has stopped reporting. MSNBC did not acknowledge Trump's comments, but Trump's propaganda network Fox News exposed all the lies, including his lie that the 2020 election was stolen.
After Trump After Harris Faulkner finished speaking, he came on the air and said, “At the very beginning, you heard the former president talking about a stolen election. And while he may have a certain opinion, the facts remain Joe Biden was declared the winner with 51% of the vote. The states have certified these results and Congress has accepted these results.”

What Faulkner read was a disclaimer meant to prevent Fox News from being sued again for spreading lies about the 2020 election.
Trump has reached a point where his lies are becoming dangerous even for right-wing media.
Donald Trump's preface was a complete fiasco and a waste of time. It was telling that instead of campaigning, Trump sat at home, exhausted, trying to get coverage on free TV.
