Fox Information is pushing again on a declare from Home Oversight Committee and Accountability Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) in a brand new ebook suggesting he was coated unfairly by the community for upsetting a member of the Doocy household.
Comer wrote his new ebook concerning the Home inquiry he led into the enterprise dealings of President Biden’s son, Hunter.
Within the ebook, excerpts of which had been shared with reporter Oliver Darcy, Comer references an episode throughout which he was offered a closely redacted doc by an FBI worker who’s the daughter of Fox Information host Steve Doocy and sister of White Home correspondent Peter Doocy.
Comer’s rejection of the doc “seemed to piss [off]” Doocy’s daughter, he mentioned.
“Maybe it’s just a coincidence, but her father, ‘Fox & Friends’ host Steve Doocy, and her brother, Fox White House correspondent Peter Doocy, would soon become my biggest critics on Fox News for the remainder of the investigation,” Comer writes within the ebook. “And they didn’t let up off camera either. Many of the White House videos criticizing me, and many of the legacy media outlets’ false narratives citing disparaging comments about me and the investigation, were from the Doocys.”
Fox Information in an announcement to The Hill on Tuesday morning pushed again on Comer’s characterization of their protection.
“The first time Steve Doocy and Peter Doocy were even made aware of what took place in the SCIF with James Comer was tonight when they saw this book excerpt which speaks volumes about how scrupulous they are and the high ethical bar their family operates with,” the network said. “Suffice it to say Comer’s attack is off base and insulting.”
Comer individually wrote journalist Bob Woodward referred to as President Biden “corrupt,” a declare the journalist additionally denied this week.
