Fox and Friends Host Wants Elon Musk to Launch Rival to ‘Anti-American’ TikTok — Two Days After Anti-Semitism Controversy

Fox News has been up in arms over young TikTok users expressing their agreement with terrorist leader Osama bin Laden after his 2002 “Letter to America” was resurrected as a hashtag on the platform. But the hosts of Fox & Friends had a gloriously bad idea for who should create a competing platform to counteract the anti-American, anti-Semitic rhetoric: Elon Musk, who was just called out for another instance of anti-Semitism on Twitter/X two days ago.

As they continued their coverage of the uproar over TikTok kids sympathizing with one of the worst, deadliest terrorists of all time, co-hosts Brian Kilmeade, Steve Doocy, Ainsley Earhardt, and Lawrence Jones mostly went after the China-made social app for spreading misinformation and anti-American propaganda:

Kilmeade: The next generation is not watching us right now. They are watching it on TikTok. They’re getting their information from TikTok. Who is pushing this stuff on TikTok? China. Don’t believe anybody that says this has been Americanized and it’s for profit. China is pushing this anti-Americanism subtly through their number one app, and it’s called “Letter to America” that was already shared, as of last night, 7.3 million times.

Doocy: Maybe what a parent should do, if you’ve got somebody who is of the TikTok generation, you sit down with them and you say, you play some of the Israeli attack and you say, “Okay, did you see this? What do you think about it?” Just ask them what they think. And then if they say, look, you know, “Israel, the great oppressor, in bed with the United States, the great Satan,” they had a comment or something like that, then that starts a dialog where then the parent can talk a little bit about, “Let me tell you what actually happened.”

Earhardt: I wish Elon Musk would start a [platform] that we know is not stealing information like China is on … I wish he would start a TikTok so that the younger people will go to another platform.

A couple things: Twitter/X, under Elon Musk, has seen an immense increase in anti-Semitic hate speech since the conspiracy theorist bought the platform just over a year ago.

And just this week, Musk expressed his own agreement with anti-Semitic opinions expressed on Twitter/X, blatantly saying, “You have said the actual truth” as a reply to a statement that said: “Jewish communties [sic] have been pushing the exact kind of dialectical hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them.” In fact, Fox Business covered this on Thursday.

But even in a business sense, Musk’s lack of regulation over hate speech such as this has cost him. Twitter/X is now worth a fraction of what he paid for it, and he’s lost more than 60 percent of advertising revenue. On top of that, the platform’s active users have also fallen.

So if the Fox & Friends crew want to flush TikTok down the toilet, maybe Musk should just buy TikTok?
