Fox News DENIED Don Jr. From Entering Spin Room AT GOP Debate

Donald Trump Jr. and his fiancé Kimberly Guilfoyle were denied access to enter into Fox News’ spin room on Wednesday night.

After the conclusion of the GOP debate hosted by Fox News, Don Jr. was hoping to go inside of Fox News’ spin room which is an area in which reporters can speak with debate participants, but was denied access by security.

Don Jr. then told a group of reporters that he was denied access to the spin room because Fox News has been working against Trump’s campaign.

Fox News is trying to censor and silence Trump supporters to protect their hand-picked establishment candidates.

That's a big reason why their ratings are dying, while my father's interview with Tucker Carlson is already at 93 million views!!! https://t.co/Qf4LI63BiB

Here’s what The Hill reported:

Donald Trump Jr., the former president’s eldest son, accused Fox News of trying to “silence” Trump supporters by blocking his access to the spin room at the first Republican primary debate.

“Fox News is trying to censor and silence Trump supporters to protect their hand-picked establishment candidates,” Trump Jr. wrote in a social media post late Wednesday, accompanied by video showing him speaking to reporters after the debate.

Former President Trump did not attend Wednesday night’s debate, which was hosted by and aired on Fox, citing his large lead in most primary polls and what he has repeatedly described as “hostile” coverage he has received from the network.

As a result, Trump’s surrogates did not receive credentials to the “spin room” through Fox.

Here’s what the New York Post reported:

Former first son Donald Trump Jr. and his fiancée, Kimberly Guilfoyle, were prevented from entering the spin room following Wednesday night’s first Republican debate after former President Donald Trump opted not to take part.

“I’d been told by others that I would be able to go in,” Trump Jr. told reporters after a Fiserv Forum security guard turned him away. “Fox won’t let me into the spin room. They’re telling him, he works for security here, but they’re telling him that I’m not allowed to go in there.”

“Because the candidates that they’ve been boosting while trying to cut down Trump for the last, what, two years didn’t perform as they had hoped,” he went on. “So they can’t have someone who can maybe be a representative of my father.”

In political parlance, the “spin room” refers to the area where candidates and their surrogates gather after each debate to talk up their performance to the media while tearing down their rivals.
