Fox News host Bill O’Reilly has been trying to book one candidate for quite some time, but he can’t seem to get him. Finally, he made his frustration public:
The Fox News host was asked by a viewer on Wednesday why he repeatedly interviewed Donald Trump but didn’t interview the Texas senator, who is currently in second-place behind Trump in both national and early-state polls.
“We’ve been trying to get Sen. Cruz on for weeks… and we’ll keep trying,” O’Reilly said. “Really.”
O’Reilly did not expand on why he had been unable to book Cruz, and neither Fox News nor the Cruz campaign immediately responded to request for comment.
But on Thursday morning, Cruz’s opponents were publicizing O’Reilly’s claim on Twitter.
This is a strange move for Cruz, who could use all the airtime he can get. Donald Trump’s campaign has been buoyed, in part, by an unbelievable amount of free air time.
Maybe Cruz is afraid the Long Island born O’Reilly will attack him on New York values? Presidents can afford to be afraid.
