It's safe to say that Fox News is having a tough time covering the 2020 election results.
After major news networks, including CNN and NBC, called the presidential race for Joe Biden on Saturday, Fox eventually hopped on board. However, due to all their previous positive Trump coverage — and the now president's baseless claims that the election was rigged — reporting on Biden's victory has been a challenge for the network.
While Trump continuously claims voter fraud is to blame for his loss and tries to convince the American people that massive amounts of mail-in ballots counted after Nov. 3 shouldn't be valid votes in the 2020 general election, let's take a look at what Fox News hosts were saying after the 2018 midterm elections.
The Daily Show (known in the COVID-19 era as The Daily Social Distancing Show) created a lovely supercut of some famous Fox News faces — including White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany — brushing off claims of voter fraud, mocking the idea of "missing ballots," and claiming that Democrats, not Republicans, have a problem conceding defeat.
A lot can change in two years, eh? Which side is being a "sore loser" now?
