Former President and Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump raged against Fox News in a rant on Truth Social Monday, accusing the network of promoting Democrats and watering down his campaign ads while asserting that “CNN and MSDNC” don’t subject them to the same level of scrutiny.

“FoxNews spends far too much time promoting the Democrats, their surrogates, and their agenda. Today I watched, over and over again, an angry and totally out of control Michelle Obama trying to save the dying Campaign of Comrade Kamala Harris,” wrote Trump.

“I’m leading in Michigan, by a lot, because of great support from Autoworkers, Arab Americans, Jewish Americans, and all other Patriots – But Fox refuses to put up those Polls,” he continued. “Fox also plays more negative commercials and ads promoting the other side than is even imaginable – Our ads on FoxNews are always a big deal to negotiate (They want us to change and weaken our content!), but we put them up on CNN and MSDNC with no problems or changes. It’s hard to believe I’m leading by so much!”

Trump has assailed the the conservative-leaning network, its talent, and owner Rupert Murdoch over and over again in the years since his 2020 election loss. Earlier this month, Trump joined Fox & Friends for a friendly conversation that he closed out by revealing that he was headed to a meeting with Murdoch and outlining the demands he would make of the media mogul there.

“I’m gonna tell him something very simple because I can’t talk to anybody else about it: Don’t put on negative commercials for 21 days, don’t put them. And don’t put on the air their horrible people. They come and lie. I’m going to say, ‘Rupert, please do it this way,'” said Trump as the hosts listened uncomfortably. “And then we’re going to have a victory, because I think everyone wants that.”

Trump has also repeatedly complained about Harris campaign emissaries appearing on Fox, even for tough interviews with its hosts.
