Chris Rock Says Trump Got 'Fake News' Right, Nearly Offsetting 'Other Sins'

1 articles · Updated · Fox News · Sep 9

Chris Rock told Variety that Donald Trump is "dead-on accurate" about "fake news," adding that the point "almost clears" the president of his "other sins."
Variety published the remarks during an interview tied to Rock's upcoming film "Misty Green," framing them as part of his still-incendiary public persona.
Rock has made notable Trump-related calls before, including predicting his 2016 win and warning in 2023 that arresting him would only make him "more popular."
The comments land as Trump keeps attacking major media outlets, most recently criticizing CNN and urging the FCC to crack down on NBC anchor Kristen Welker.
