Suspended Fox Commentator Returns To The Air And Immediately Repeats Debunked Spying Claim [VIDEO]

Raw Story reports:



Fox News legal analyst Andrew Napolitano returned to the airwaves on Wednesday, but he said that he “stands by” the debunked claims that got him kicked off the air in the first place. Napolitano caused an international incident earlier this month when he announced on Fox News that President Barack Obama had used the British spying agency GCHQ to surveil then-candidate Donald Trump.

Trump repeated the claim during a live news conference, forcing the British agency to make a rare denial. Napolitano was suspended from the network, and Fox News stated that it could not back up his claim. On Wednesday, the legal analyst made his first appearance on Fox News following the suspension. Host Bill Hemmer immediately asked if he still stood by his claim.
