Fox Covers Chuck Grassley's Investigation Into False Statements By Kavanaugh Accusers

[See NewsBusters for more.] The three networks in September deluged viewers with incessant coverage of unproven sexual abuse accusations against then-Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. But when some of those claims fell apart, ABC and NBC went silent on the crumbling assertions. As reported in the USA Today, Friday, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley referred Judy Munro-Leighton to the FBI to be investigated for taking “responsibility for authoring an anonymous letter that made allegations that Kavanaugh and a friend raped her..” None of the networks over the weekend or on Monday reported this development. Fox News host Eric Shawn, however, saw the latest details as “stunning false accusations.”
