Fox News falls in line with Trump’s Epstein plea — but will the rest of MAGA media comply?
CNN
The cable news powerhouse has stopped covering the so-called Epstein files, but many other conservative media figures are still heavily scrutinizing the Trump administration’s handling of the situation.
Fall in line, or keep fighting for answers? That’s the rift in right-wing media now. Fox News has taken President Trump’s plea for his allies to stop talking about Jeffrey Epstein almost literally. But many other conservative media influencers and outlets are still heavily scrutinizing the Trump administration’s decision not to release further information related to the late convicted sex offender. “The Jeffrey Epstein story isn’t going anywhere,” Megyn Kelly told listeners on Tuesday, agreeing with her Monday guest Ben Shapiro’s view that attorney general Pam Bondi should hold a press conference on the matter. Even Charlie Kirk, who raised eyebrows Monday by saying “I’m done talking about Epstein for the time being,” said Tuesday on his radio show that “we’re not moving on.” Sounding defensive and practically shouting at times, Kirk repeatedly acknowledged the grassroots MAGA energy about Epstein. “You are not letting this story go,” he said. “I know that.”
