Marjorie Taylor Greene Says She Watches Other Networks More Than Fox News
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) told Vanity Fair that she now watches nearly every major news outlet more than Fox News, and that she believes Fox has effectively blacklisted her after she criticized the party and pushed for transparency around the Jeffrey Epstein case.
Greene has recently broken with many Republicans — most prominently President Donald Trump — by criticizing GOP positions and urging the release of records related to the late Jeffrey Epstein. While some conservatives, including Trump allies, have dismissed aspects of the Epstein coverage as a 'hoax,' Greene has called for public disclosure of investigative files.
Greene told Vanity Fair, 'I watch Fox News the least.' She said she prefers CNN, NBC, CNBC, the BBC and local news outlets.
Her comments have intensified tensions within her party. Trump has publicly called Greene a 'traitor' and said he would withdraw support for her expected reelection bid next year. As she has been criticized by many on the right, she has found new opportunities on outlets and programs that historically have been more receptive to dissenting Republicans.
Recent Media Appearances
- CNN invited Greene on for the first time in her career.
- She appeared on Bill Maher’s Real Time, where Maher called her 'the one Republican who’s dissenting.'
- She accepted an invitation to The View for the first time, prompting a lighthearted remark from Joy Behar that Greene was 'taking my job.'
A Fox News spokesperson disputed Greene’s claim that she’s been blacklisted, noting that she appeared on Fox in June and earlier in February. Greene maintains she watches the network the least.
On Tuesday morning she joined a press conference with Epstein victims and pushed back against Trump’s barrage of attacks, reinforcing her call for transparency in the Epstein matter.
Context: The exchanges highlight an unusual political moment in which a conservative lawmaker's break with party orthodoxy has reduced her standing with some Republican leaders even as it has opened doors on other networks and forums.
