There are a lot of people on the left who have for a long time argued that Democratic candidates and congress-people shouldn’t appear on FNC, for fear of “legitimizing” them. I wonder… do meetings like this one hurt that argument? Sure on “on camera interview” is good for ratings and ad dollars, but does a closed door meeting with a high-level White House employee represent FNC’s larger area of influence and importance amongst the political spectrum? I wonder…
