As the president continues to deal with the fallout of his administration’s handling of files tied to the late sex offender, the network — according to an analysis of transcripts from July 18 to July 23 — mentioned Obama more than three times the amount Epstein was mentioned.
On Monday, for instance, a look at transcripts from the Kinetiq video database shows Epstein was mentioned just two times on Fox News, whereas Obama was mentioned 117 times.
The analysis also found that MSNBC, CNN and the conservative Newsmax network mentioned Epstein 15, 11 and five times more than Fox News in that timespan, respectively.
Trump has called for more media coverage of what he described as the “other witch hunt” instead of the Epstein “hoax,” baselessly accusing the former president of the “highest level Election Fraud.”
