Probably because a producer was really responsible for the whole mess, and producers are always kept in the background. But Faulkner actually didn't say anything even remotely wrong. She was basically the victim of a production fuck-up that left her alone on camera through a painfully long dead silence, clearly listening to a producer saying something to her through her earpiece.

That was the most memorable part of the whole thing, because it's so rare to see that kind of technical/production fail. The obvious issues on the production side make me suspect that a producer was responsible for instructing Francis to say what she did, and that it probably wasn't Francis who initiated this mess.

Also, Mediaite's article on the incident erroneously attributes Melissa Francis' statement to Faulkner. Really sloppy reporting.

Fox News should permanently ban and sanction Marie Harf. CENSORSHIP is verboten! We’re Americans dammit!

Wait. First I did not hear an apology. She said " we do not Censor " plus, you can't Blame Melissa Francis of Harf. The producers were yelling in their ears.

It's her show, I guess. Maybe they won't have the others back.

This is good to know. I didn't see it but was a little shocked that Faulkner was involved. Glad to know she was caught off guard. I thought Melissa Francis was conservative but knew 'Barf' was a lefty!!

I think she chose to take the high road and make this statement.

That tranny is claiming they don't censor when we saw them do it all in real time. What, do they think, democrats are watching? Geeeeeeez. Way to tell your audience you think they are stupid.
