Fox News chief political analyst Brit Hume publicly defended his colleague, national security correspondent Jennifer Griffin, after she faced criticism from Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. Hegseth accused Griffin of misrepresenting President Trump's comments about a U.S. strike on Iran, labeling her as one of the worst reporters. In response, Hume emphasized Griffin's professionalism, knowledge, and experience, arguing that the attack she received was unwarranted and showcased his respect for her work and integrity in reporting.
I'd like to say a word, if I may Dana, about Jennifer Griffin, who was attacked by the Defense Secretary today. An attack she certainly, in my view, did not deserve.
Her professionalism, her knowledge, and her experience at the Pentagon is unmatched. I have then, have had and still have, the greatest regard for her.
The attack on her was unfair! Jennifer, you've been about the worst, the one who misrepresents the most intentionally what the president says.
Hegseth accused Griffin of being about the worst among the press corps claiming she distorted comments from President Donald Trump in her reporting.
