Fox News Chaos: Anchor Walks Off Set, Wallace Rails Network for "Obama-Bashing" [VIDEO]
Fox News' very own anchors are speaking out -- and walking off -- over what they perceive to be "Obama-bashing" on their network.
This morning on "Fox and Friends," Brian Kilmeade walked off the set after a dispute with his co-hosts Gretchen Carlson (she who celebrates deadly floods) and Steve Doocy over Obama's comment that his grandmother is a "typical white person." Kilmeade argued that the remark needed to be taken in context and eventually got so fed up with his co-hosts that he walked off set.
Later, "Fox News Sunday" host Chris Wallace came on the show and railed against "Fox and Friends" for what he called "Obama-bashing."
