Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a bill severely curbing access to the ballot Thursday, and barred all press from the ceremony but conservative Fox News.
On Thursday morning, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) signed a bill restricting access to the vote, holding a televised signing ceremony that excluded all press but Fox News. Ahead of the ceremony, local reporters in Florida announced they’d been barred from entry, while supporters of the governor and a media team from Fox were permitted to enter. DeSantis frequently appears on Fox News as a guest. “In about an hour, behind this door at a meeting facility at Airport Hilton in West Palm Beach, @GovRonDeSantis will sign law making it harder for some people to vote,” Anthony Man, a writer for the South Florida Sun Sentinel, tweeted Thursday morning. “No Florida reporters allowed in because he’s given an exclusive to cable channel Fox News for the bill signing.”More Related News
