Peter Navarro Calls on Cabinet Secretaries, Officials to Boycott Fox
Navarro said Fox News has undermined Trump and urged the White House to stop sending administration officials to the network.
On Thursday, President Donald Trump's senior counselor for trade and manufacturing Peter Navarro urged the White House to stop sending officials to Fox News, accusing the network of undermining the administration.
Navarro's public feud with the network escalated earlier this month after Fox parted ways with anchor Maria Bartiromo, who allegedly shared confidential Fox Business guidance with him regarding 2020 election claims.
Appearing on Steve Bannon's War Room Wednesday, Navarro claimed "Fox has revealed itself to be essentially undermining the Trump administration" and is "much more dangerous" to the Republican Party than competitors.
Despite the ongoing feud, the administration continues to supply guests to Fox, with First Lady Melania Trump appearing on multiple programs Wednesday as the network suspends pool coverage protesting the White House's ban on MS NOW, CNN, and Politico.
Citing the departures of Tucker Carlson and Lou Dobbs as evidence of hostility, Navarro has expanded his campaign by authoring multiple opinion pieces for The Washington Times against the network.
