Jessica Tarlov's False Claim About Tony Bobulinski Sparks Lawsuit Threat Against Fox News
PJ Media ^ | 3/22/2024 | Matt Margolis

Posted on 03/22/2024 8:51:28 AM PDT by Signalman

On Wednesday, Tony Bobulinski testified before Congress in the ongoing impeachment investigation of Joe Biden. His damning testimony so triggered Jessica Tarlov, the liberal co-host on Fox News Channel’s “The Five,” that she sought to undermine it by accusing Bobulinski of having a pro-Trump PAC pay his legal fees.

"Tony Bobulinski's lawyers' fees have been paid by a Trump Super PAC that's as recent as January,” she claimed before rehashing a false claim about Donald Trump. “Do you think that a guy who's invested in how much better off he wants the United States to be—and really getting to the bottom of this—would be taking money from the guy who extorted the Ukrainians to get dirt on the Bidens?" she asked.

In a letter PJ Media obtained, Bobulinski’s lawyer demanded an on-air retraction and an apology from Tarlov for making a false claim.

"Ms. Tarlov stated that Mr. Bobulinski’s legal fees are being paid by a Trump Super PAC. This is unequivocally false and defamatory. Indeed, no Trump Super PAC has ever paid Mr. Bobulinski’s legal fees,” reads a letter from Jesse R. Binnall to Jeff A. Taylor, the Executive Vice President and General Counsel for the Fox Corporation. "In fact, Mr. Bobulinski has paid over $500,000, in legal fees to numerous lawyers in law firms out of his own pocket since 2020. We write to demand the immediate retraction, on air, today, of this maliciously blatant lie."

Binnall then threatened a defamation lawsuit against Fox if it did not make an apology or retraction.

She had to apologize the other day but it was obvious that it was not sincere.

Her one break with the Democrat party orthodoxy was her support for Israel against Hamas and their attacks in the Gaza Strip.

Poor Jessica. She can’t run with the big boys because her journalism is based on lies and self inflated myth.She is an later generational understudy of Joeseph Goebbels.

Jessica does not market herself as a journalist, every autobiograohy you see of her claims she is a “democrat strategist,” in short , she is a fascist.

When Jesse WAters “picls om Tarlov,” what you see is a journalist who worked his way up the hard way and who is bound by the ethics of jpouralism. Tarlov knows no such boundaries. She is on The Five to give out whatever slick memes and talking points the DNC gives her.

No wonder Jesse picks on her. I am glad he does.The way to combat fascism is through ridicule. a lesson learned an taught by WInston Chuirchill on dealing with European Fascists, some of whom residen in England .

WHen there is incoming ridicule for lack of facts to support her wild, woke memes, Jessica loses it, they are suppose to take her word as if issued from on high from Mount Zion. America sees that.

I agree, but is sure as hell was short lived.

1)”The Five’s Jessica Tarlov slams Benjamin Netanyahu for leaving Israel in ‘mess’ and not addressing Hamas attack.”

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/the-fives-jessica-tarlov-slams-benjamin-netanyahu-for-leaving-israel-in-mess-and-not-addressing-hamas-attack/ar-AA1iJBxv

Tarlov sides with the radical left who have been attacking Nethanyahu for years in Israel, and now she councils disunuty against Nethanyahu who must not be allowed t9o gain popularity with Israelis and abrioad through achievingVictory over Islamofascism in GAZA.

Why? Tarlov herself is a Fascist. Plain and simple, She is not a journalist either, she markets herself as a Democrat Strategist, and uses The Five as her propaganda tool, while all others on the Five are journalists.

Tarlov does not belong on the Five. She is nothing but a petulant child trying to extinguish any flame of logic based on fact. Recently she opined that Joe Biden had a perfectly good mind and was not suffering from dementia, contrary tio medical experts who have obserbed his physocal movement and speech patterns. And feigned surprise when her colleagues on the Five disagreed.

I agree with you about her dogmatic support of the Democrat spin on everything.

Tarlov is the worst of the liberal hosts on Fox. She’s not only a liar but dumb as a box of rocks. I love this story and I hope she’s sued.

FOX was requested to do an apology, she read her apology on air last night. She read it like Biden would, fast and garbled.

Fair and Balanced, a Democrat Strategist set among journalists bound by a code of ethics? But no ethics for her?

I hope they keel haul the bitch.She has no ethics except what it takes to maintain fascist power on behalf of the third world like demagogues running America.

I’ve tried to figure out why they keep her; but it’s television. She’s a woman many viewers ‘love to hate’.

My husband yells at the TV whenever she’s on, and I learn a lot of interesting new words...

Oh, nice ... a “clarification,” not a straightforward apology, as is called for.

I also heard Turdlove claim that Trump once called his wife “Melanie”, as if to demonstrate he has cognitive decline as bad as Dementia Joe and can’t remember her name. In fact, it was an autocorrect in a text he sent, like six years ago (wrote that as “Melania” and it autocorrected to Melanie, a more common name. She is a pig.

Tonight I just switched off the Five. Fox will loose viewers because of her. I do not mind a bona fide liberal journalist.BUt Tarlov is not a journalist, she markets herself as a “Demo rat STrategist.” Tarlov is a political operative doing the bidding of the Fscists who are ruining our nation.

I likely will not watch the Five when she is on. I just wait and watch Bret Baer who is much more subtly a RINO.

BUt Usually I’ll catch Jesse Waters, Laura Ingram,or Sean Hannity when I can. The Five has become a laughing stock of no news entertainment.

I agree. I like listening to their analysis and facts.
Laura Ingram can be pretty good.
