The feud between Fox News and Republican presidential contender Donald Trump escalated Wednesday when National Review editor Rich Lowry told Fox host Megyn Kelly that Carly Fiorina cut off a vital part of Trump’s anatomy during the Republican primary debate on CNN.
“I think part of what’s going on here is that last [CNN Republican] debate,” Lowry told Megyn Kelly on “The Kelly File” Wednesday. “Carly Fiorina cut [Trump’s] balls off with the precision of a surgeon.”
“What did you just say?” Kelly asked. “You can’t say that!”
Trump got on Twitter and said Fox News owes him an apology and that the Federal Communications Commission should fine “incompetent” Lowry and not allow him to appear on TV because of his “foul language.”
Here’s the exchange, via Fox News.
Right on the heels of the broadcast, Trump fired back:
Incompetent @RichLowry lost it tonight on @FoxNews. He should not be allowed on TV and the FCC should fine him!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 24, 2015
.@FoxNews owes me an apology for allowing clueless pundit @RichLowry to use such foul language on TV. Unheard of! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 24, 2015
Trump’s opening salvo was returned by Lowry:
.@realDonaldTrump I thought the Carly cut your balls off line might bother you, but you know it’s true…
— Rich Lowry (@RichLowry) September 24, 2015
.@realDonaldTrump I love how Mr. Anti-PC now wants the FCC to fine me. #pathetic — Rich Lowry (@RichLowry) September 24, 2015
.@realDonaldTrump so it’s OK for you to insult Carly’s looks, but you can’t handle me describing what happened to you in the debate?
— Rich Lowry (@RichLowry) September 24, 2015
.@realDonaldTrump man, you can dish it out but you REALLY, REALLY can’t take it — Rich Lowry (@RichLowry) September 24, 2015
.@realDonaldTrump a deal for you, Donald: if you apologize to Carly for your boorish insult, I might stop noting how she cut your b**** off
— Rich Lowry (@RichLowry) September 24, 2015
Trump also indicated that he will be on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” at 6:30 a.m., and CNN’s “New Day” at 7 a.m. today.
