Chris Wallace throws up his hands

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

Chris Wallace announced on-air today that he’s immediately leaving Fox News. He didn’t cite any specific reasons; he simply said he wants to move onto an unnamed new venture that goes beyond politics.

We have no way of knowing, for now at least, whether Wallace’s departure is related to the increasingly deranged behavior of other Fox News hosts like Tucker Carlson – which Wallace reportedly objected to behind the scenes – or if it was just Wallace’s time.

In any case, Chris Wallace was the only honest one left at Fox News. And he was, by default, giving cover to the other Fox News hosts as they filled the rest of the day with nonstop lies. Now they’ve lost that cover. Fox News can no longer pretend to be even vaguely real.
