A GOP governor boasted at the Republican National Committee’s spring retreat over the weekend that he talks “to Fox leadership all the time,” and urged the network to break away from the “echo chamber” in which it exists. today. According to a report from NPR, New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu spoke at the Tennessee shindig—and spent a large amount of his remarks targeting Fox News as it prepares for a trial of his well-publicized defamation lawsuit, filed by election security company Dominion Voting Systems. “We have to start thinking about the long game,” Sununu told Republican donors at the Four Seasons Hotel in Nashville, according to audio obtained and published by NPR. “I’m with you [Fox News business journalist, host and senior vice president Neil] Cavuto this morning, and I talk to Fox management all the time,” Sununu said. “I would go, ‘Look guys, I saw a panel discussion with four panelists on Fox and they all literally agreed with each other… They were talking in an echo chamber. What are you doing to improve the team? What are you doing to have a better, broader product? If you don’t do it, we’re going to lose.'” Sununu’s communications director later explained to NPR: “He told Republicans they should go to other media channels, not just Fox. The Republicans watching channels too.”
