Bret Baier Caves, Unblocks Wendy Rogers on Twitter After She Gives Him a ‘#FakeNews Award’

Earlier, we reported that Arizona Republican State Senator Wendy Rogers took a victory lap on Twitter after Fox News host Bret Baier blocked her on the platform.

Rogers now has reported that Baier reversed course and unblocked her.

Baier apparently blocked Rogers after she had called him out on Saturday, tagging him in a tweet where she called him “#FakeNews” after he “dismissed the findings of the @cyberninjas, by referencing a statement from @MaricopaVote.”

Rogers stated earlier, “Congratulations to @BretBaier at @FoxNews for receiving the very first #FakeNews award from me for his bungling of the Arizona call on Nov 3rd for President and for lying and discrediting our very credible audit. Bonus points for blocking me after I called him out. #Triggered“

Rogers subsequently quote tweeted her original tweet and tagged colleagues of Baier at Fox News and told them to let him know about his “award.”

“@marthamaccallum@HARRISFAULKNER@SpecialReport please let Bret know about this honor. I have waited all year to award this and he earned it,” Rogers taunted.

Baier must have been notified about the situation as Rogers recently tweeted, “BREAKING: @BretBaier has unblocked me after I awarded him a #FakeNews award.”

In a recent statement, former President Donald Trump called out both Fox News and Baier over the Arizona 2020 presidential election audit, as well as the decision to call Arizona for Joe Biden before any other outlet.

“Fox News and other media outlets incorrectly side with the outdated and terrible Maricopa County Election Board to report no fraud found in the Presidential Election. They spew the gross misinformation purposefully put out by the county and the Associated Press, and IGNORE the very important Arizona Senate’s hearing yesterday,” Trump said.

In regards to the election call and Baier, Trump added, “The same anchor at the desk the night Fox called Arizona for Joe Biden now wants you to believe there was no fraud. The anchor was Bret Baier. Arizona shows Fraud and Voting Irregularities many times more than would be needed to change the outcome of the Election.”
