Jesse Watters did a whole segment suggesting the story was made up attacking the media, the President, the VP, and the doctor. https://t.co/NpFHktEoTx pic.twitter.com/U6JWjNVyvz

Very problematic… and this was just the opening monologue. He continued to push this narrative with his interviews pic.twitter.com/FBJeAzY4Ru

Since this happened, the right wing disinformation specialists have been suggesting this was a hoax. The perpetrator was just arrested and charged. Don’t expect many segments on Fox about that. pic.twitter.com/bmAOMy7GkW

Days ago South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem and many right wingers were calling this story fake. https://t.co/ul0PUeZ2eq pic.twitter.com/ndQ9m7kKgS

Gershon Fuentes, 27, of Columbus has been charged with impregnating a 10-yo Ohio girl, who had to travel to Indiana to seek an abortion following the Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v Wade, activating Ohio's abortion ban.https://t.co/Z3dYIEVkGF via @DispatchAlerts

Fox News host Emily Compagno, yesterday, on the story of a 10-year-old rape victim who had to go to Indiana for an abortion:

"What I find so deeply offensive, they had to make up a fake one!"
Meanwhile, the alleged rapist was just arrested and charged.https://t.co/ZD07i4ls0E pic.twitter.com/JtwZ6XyELQ
Imagine how embarrassing it must be to have voted for this Yost fellow. https://t.co/arIYPrJcS0

These media figures discredited a report on a 10-year-old girl needing a medical abortion. There was just an arrest in the case. https://t.co/RRHDizLw96

Yesterday: The idea that you have politicians in America trying to exploit a story like this and make up a story like this in order to advance their own sick agenda… I think it sort of discredits them from the field of decent debate about it pic.twitter.com/YfqbOBlr3q

Why did Jim Jordan just delete this tweet? He would never try and cover up a sexual assault, would he?

Hours after Fox News first reported on the 10-year-old Ohio rape victim's existence last night, Tucker Carlson openly said on his top-rated broadcast the story was "not true." https://t.co/1L5ndMWPrG

Yesterday: It looks specious

Today: Suspect arrested pic.twitter.com/XODB26quvc
See?The entire right wing echo chamber rushed to lie about this story because it hurt them politically. They didn't give a damn about the 10-year-old girl they terrorized. They looked the other way when a rapist was on the loose. Despicable doesn't even begin to describe it. https://t.co/LHSawKUccB

So Jesse Watters' strategy tonight was as follows:
— Justin Baragona (@justinbaragona) July 14, 2022
- do not apologize
- take credit for the rapist's arrest
- demonize immigrants
- call for the abortion doctor's arrest
- repeatedly air the doctor's photo while villainizing her to his millions of viewers
Tucker: So it sounds like in this case, as in pretty much every case we’ve reported on in five years, the first version was a lie. Everything is partisan propaganda… pic.twitter.com/O1BCvktyce

As expected, Tucker has spun his not true claim pic.twitter.com/3khh36tR7j

Note that Fox News, who had hosts say the story of the 10-year-old might be a lie, is calling it "Biden's Abortion Story" even though the incident has nothing directly to do with Biden. H/T @Acyn pic.twitter.com/pNzF0XASKO

Republican fanatics now want to prosecute a doctor for not forcing a raped 10 year old child to give birth to the rapist’s baby. https://t.co/QNDGyeJPkv
