WATCH: Trump Hammers ABC After Debate: 'They Ought to Take Away Their License for The Way They Did That'
Former president Donald Trump slammed ABC News in a post-debate interview on Wednesday morning, calling for the network to lose its "license" for what he characterized as a dishonest moderating performance.
"I think ABC took a big hit last night," Trump said in a Fox News interview, speaking of the moderators’ bias during the Tuesday evening debate. "They’re a news organization. They have to be licensed to do it. They ought to take away their license for the way they did that."
The ABC moderators, David Muir and Linsey Davis, repeatedly fact checked Trump during Tuesday’s debate. When Vice President Kamala Harris made false statements, however, they stayed silent. Trump was fact checked five times during the 90-minute event. Muir and Davis did not fact check Harris.
"They're dishonest," Trump said of ABC. "I think they lost a lot of credibility."
Trump is embroiled in a lawsuit with the network over host George Stephanopoulos's assertion that a jury determined the former president "raped" writer E. Jean Carroll. A judge declined to dismiss the suit in a July ruling, and both sides requested a jury trial last month.
