Fox Host Dismisses Online Death Threats As “Heckling”

“You have the media and you have the FBI monitoring social media for threats, looking at online message boards.

“That is the equivalent of monitoring every sporting event for heckling, you know? If you want to find that threat or opinion or anything, you can find it.

“I bet I could find a death threat against [Fox host] Dana Perino. I bet I could, it’s probably from [Fox host Brian] Kilmeade. But I’m telling you, if you want to look for something like that, you are going to find it.

“So this is just kind of a way to keep you from talking.” – Fox News host Greg Gutfield, on death threats against FBI agents, Merrick Garland, and the judge who signed the Mar-A-Lago search warrant.

Fox News’ Greg Gutfeld addressed the threats against a federal judge in Florida briefly before bizarrely suggesting that the press is turning them into a story in order to move on from the “actual injustice” of the FBI raid. https://t.co/plMY8pilcc
