DEEP STATE MOUTHPIECE & SON OF MIKE WALLACE & REGISTERED DEMOCRAT
(Chris Wallace, biological son of the late Mike Wallace, and stepson of Bill Leonard (President of CBS News 1979 to 1982) was trained to be a loyal deep state mouthpiece. He grew up in the news business and learned his role from some of the best CIA assets. His first girlfriend, Nancy, was the eldest daughter of Walter Cronkite. Expect suave spin from him. Don't listen to him if you want to hear the truth.)

Wow! Ben Domenech humiliates Chris Wallace on air for his Biden speech puffery

I confess that like most Americans, I had no interest in watching Joe Biden's non–State of the Union address to a mostly empty House chamber hosting a joint session of Congress. That's why I missed a golden moment during the commentary afterward on Fox News Channel, one that surely stands as what the progressives like to call a "Profile in Courage."

You may have noticed that in recent weeks, FNC has been trying out various personalities from its stable of commentators as hosts of Fox News Primetime that airs in the 7 P.M. Eastern time slot, the lead-in to Tucker Carlson's program, its (and cable news's) ratings leader. I presume that the personality who does what the executives deem the best job, or maybe gets the highest ratings, or the highest Q Score, will be rewarded with hosting duties on a regular basis. This would be a Very Big Deal for the person snagging the honor. Last week, the host of the program was Ben Domenech, co-founder of The Federalist.

With a potential plum like that a possibility, Domenech deserves a lot of credit for responding to Chris Wallace's praise for Biden's speech the way he did. I don't know why FNC regards Wallace so highly, but he does host Fox News Sunday and virtually always serves as a commentator after major political events. Somebody up there (on the executive floors of FNC) likes him.

Watch the 2-minute video embedded below while you can. It is quite obviously an unauthorized recording of the segment, shot by a camera recording a TV screen, and therefore subject to being pulled down for copyright reasons.

I found the clip via Ace, who found it at a site that is new to me: Love Breeds Accountability, which called it a "Master Class In Speaking Truth To Power As Ben Domenech Exposes Chris Wallace's Journalism Grift." (read more)
