During Monday’s The Kelly File on the Fox News Channel (FNC), host Megyn Kelly and The Five co-host Dana Perino excoriated the liberal media for committing a double standard in their portrayal of the tea party compared to the Black Lives Matter movement. 

After Perino explained that “leaders in the media” need to come together and more appropriately describe the makeup of Black Lives Matter, Kelly interjected that she couldn’t recall anyone in the media refuting the assertion by Democrats that the tea party was “perceived as racist” and “nuts” who need “to be denounced.”
