Fox News’ Judge Napolitano is being kept off the air indefinitely after he made a claim that British intelligence wiretapped Trump Tower at Obama’s request.

According to the L.A. Times:

    Fox News did not respond to inquiries about Napolitano’s status Monday. Napolitano was conspicuously missing from the network’s coverage of the confirmation hearings on Supreme Court nominee Neil Gorsuch — an event in which he typically would have played a significant role. He has not been on the air since Thursday.

    People familiar with the situation who could speak only on the condition of anonymity said Napolitano is not expected to be on Fox News Channel any time in the near future. Napolitano was not available for comment.

    In a statement read on the Fox News program “MediaBuzz” on Sunday, Napolitano defended his comments. He said he “reported what the sources told me, reported it accurately and I do believe the substance of what they told me.”

The Brits called the report "Nonsense".

Dunno what the facts really are, but when Fox News distances itself from Napolitano, that's big.

I'm not saying that the Brits were involved but they'd have to say the report is nonsense regardless as to their involvement which makes the statement meaningless.

==============================

I've never known Judge Napolitano to lie or distort the facts, and I don't believe personally this incident is an exception to his long history of being completely reliable.

He may have been set up, or he may have actually been disclosing publicly what was clearly NOT desired to have been disclosed, instantly causing and requiring Napolitano to have to be removed.

Well, he did say the info he received came from "Fox News" sources. If that is correct then Fox News has a bigger problem.

Not at all. It means they deny it. That's a long, long way from saying nothing at all.

Which kinda ties in to my earlier statement about not knowing all the facts.

A lot of people consider Napolitano to be reliable - that's good for him. But the boardroom pukes at Fox News clearly want to squash the story and what Da Judge reported, so away he goes.

True.  We surveil the shit out of them, the Israelis, the French, the Germans, and the Japanese, let alone actual foreign oppostional powers like Russia or PRC.  They do the same to us, within the limits of their capabilities.  Everyone lies about it, us included.

Nobody has been dumb enough to admit it was their hand in that cookie jar when caught since the Zimmermann Telegram.

The Brits have 24/7 access to the NSA intercepts, in real time.  I'm sure that other allies do as well.

I'm betting they *think* they do, and we *tell* them they have that, but there is a layer that is strictly and completely NOFORN/SCI.
