Fox News edited out a section of an interview last Sunday where former President Donald Trump appeared to retreat from a promise to declassify files related to sex offender and financier Jeffrey Epstein, Semafor reported. The exchange, part of a June 2 sit-down with Fox & Friends, was cut from the original TV broadcast but later reappeared in full on Will Cain's Fox News radio show.
A Fox News spokesperson, challenging claims that the network was protecting Trump, also shared with Salon another brief clip that showed the full Epstein segment, while not included in the original Sunday broadcast, was played on air the next day.
