Giuliani upset that Fox News banned him

On Steve Bannon's "War Room" on Wednesday, during a segment in which Bannon was criticizing Fox News for giving so much coverage to former Vice President Mike Pence instead of former President Donald Trump, Rudy Giuliani complained bitterly about how Fox News doesn't invite him on as a guest anymore — and in particular how they didn't invite him on for the most recent anniversary of the September 11 attacks.

"Would Roger Ailes have tolerated — the other day, Donald Trump returns to Washington, D.C. for the first time since he left, to give a keynote address on law and order and anarchy in our major cities. Mike Pence gives a seventeen minute bromides for a high school kid, cut and paste, absolutely ridiculous, they cover seventeen minutes and they blow a commercial break, which is like a mortal sin over at Fox, right? They blow a commercial break to cover all of it. Why do they have a thumb on the scale for a loser and a coward like Mike Pence, and they're up against, trying to defeat again, Donald J. Trump?"
