Warren Turns Down a Televised Town Hall on Fox News

Several of her rivals for the Democratic presidential nomination have already held or agreed to hold town halls with Fox News, including Bernie Sanders and Pete Buttigieg.

Democrat Elizabeth Warren is saying 'no' to a televised town hall on Fox News, slamming the network as "a hate-for-profit racket that gives a megaphone to racists and conspiracists."

Several of her rivals for the Democratic presidential nomination have already held or agreed to hold town halls with Fox News, including Bernie Sanders and Pete Buttigieg. In a tweet Tuesday, Sen. Warren said she would not participate in a town hall that would help Fox "make even more money adding our valuable audience to their ratings numbers."

A spokeswoman for Fox News did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez earlier this year restricted Fox News from hosting an official debate for the party.
