Shepard Smith: 'Concerted effort' by Fox News guests to advise Trump against Mueller interview
[Washington Examiner] Fox News anchor Shepard Smith suggested there is a "concerted effort" by people appearing on his network to advise President Trump not to sit down for an interview with special counsel Robert Mueller.
"There appears to be a concerted effort ... to put a bunch of people on television having seen [Mueller’s] questions, and to say into the television ‐ like this channel ‐ ’Don’t do it, Mr. President. Don’t do it. Don’t go up there, don’t do it. We know you want to. Don’t do it. Can’t do it,'" Smith told Reuters White House correspondent Jeff Mason Wednesday.
"We all know the president does watch some television, and he’s got a lot of surrogates, as we call them, or friends out there that speak for him and speak on behalf of him," Mason said.
