By now, you’ve probably heard the story. Vice President Kamala Harris sat down for an interview with the news program; some of her answers were edited for time; and the GOP nominee has spent every day since pretending that this is some kind of scandal. Trump has, among other things, called for CBS to lose its broadcasting license, “60 Minutes” to be pulled from the air,” and for the Democratic nominee to end her candidacy altogether.

After the Republican candidate described the editing of the interview as “totally illegal” — a bonkers claim, by any fair measure — Trump’s legal team wrote to CBS News this week, threatening litigation.....

It’s against this backdrop that CNN reported on Trump’s staged event at a New York barbershop this week, which was aired on Fox News:

[T]he version of the visit shown on television was, to borrow a hairstyle metaphor, a crop cut. Fox edited out many of Trump’s rambling comments and false claims. Participants had to repeatedly follow up when Trump meandered away from the original point of their questions. CNN reviewed a more complete video of the barbershop visit that was uploaded to Instagram on the day of Trump’s appearance in the Bronx and compared it to the segments that were shown on “Fox & Friends” on Monday.

CNN’s report, which has not been independently verified by MSNBC or NBC, added that what Fox News showed viewers “omitted numerous Trump tangents and exaggerations,” as well as his “rambling comments.”......

But according to CNN’s report, Fox’s segment was edited in such a way as to prevent Trump from looking even worse.

The result is a set of questions that seems rather obvious, but are worth asking anyway. Will the former president demand that “Fox & Friends” be pulled from the air? Will he target Fox’s broadcast license? Will he withdraw from the 2024 race as a result of the allegations?

Will he demand that Fox release the full and unedited version of his appearance? Will he characterize the network’s edits as “totally illegal,” a “threat to democracy,” and “the single biggest scandal in broadcast history”?

Will Fox’s lawyers be hearing from Trump’s attorneys?

I have a hunch we know the answers.
