YouTube Description
as posted by the channel"State Department spokesperson Philippe Reines has issued a wry declaration of war on Fox News correspondent Justin Fishel.
In December, Fishel followed the lead of many conservative outlets in questioning the department's announcement that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had fallen and suffered a concussion that made her unable to testify about the September attack on the American consulate in Benghazi.
"It seems that she has not been available to testify on the Benghazi situation on some very key dates, including the Sunday after 9/11 and now this Thursday," he said during a daily press briefing, echoing several other Fox commentators."*
Fox News strongly hinted they thought Hilary Clinton was faking her medical condition to get out of testifying about Benghazi. Wrong again, Bob! In a sarcastic letter, the State Department let Fox News know exactly how they felt.. Cenk Uygur, Ben Mankiewicz (Host, Turner Classic Movies), and John Iadarola (Host, TYT University) break it down.
