Snowflake Hugh Hewitt Storms Off Set And Quits Washington Post
In a weird moment, conservative commentator Hugh Hewitt ripped off his headset and stormed off the set of the Washington Post First Look podcast because Jonathan Capehart didn't care for being lectured over journalistic integrity by the right wing blowhard.
Ruth Marcus is also a member of the podcast team as the discussion turned to Trump and voting in Pennsylvania where Trump has been littering the grounds with voter fraud allegations already.
Capehart said it appeared Trump was laying the groundwork for election fraud nonsense by claiming cheating was already happening in Pennsylvania.
Hugh Hewitt used a Republican victory to extend voting for another day in Bucks County and claimed that proved Trump had a right to complain.
That was not the case. The Trump campaign sued over long lines and unpreparedness, not cheating. After Hewitt's diatribe about opinion and journalism had stopped, Capehart told Hewitt he didn't like to be lectured.
That was it. It was as soft a push back as one could make.
Hewitt used a mild rebuke to create a scene as if he had been molested on air. He cried that what Capehart and Marcus were doing was a terrible injustice to Trump an unfair election ad.
CAPEHART: In Pennsylvania by suing Bucks County for alleged irregularities. And this is on top of his continual assertion that if he loses, it's because of cheating.
MARCUS: Yeah, that's what he's been laying the groundwork for this just not in the last week, but in the last umpty-ump months.
