As with most things involving Candace Owens, her comments ignited a social media firestorm. Hashtags like #DisgraceToJournalism and #StandWithMuirAndDavis began trending, with both sides of the political spectrum digging in their heels.
“Candace Owens is just upset because her guy didn’t get away with lying on stage,” tweeted one user in defense of Muir and Davis. “Fact-checking is part of a journalist’s job. If she doesn’t like it, maybe she should turn off the TV.”
Meanwhile, Owens’ supporters were quick to point out what they saw as a double standard in media coverage. “Candace is right,” tweeted a conservative commentator. “If this was a debate with Joe Biden, the moderators would’ve treated him like a fragile egg, scared to push back too hard. But with Trump, it’s open season.”
This isn’t the first time Owens has criticized media figures for what she perceives as unfair treatment of conservatives, but this particular battle has gained significant traction, largely because Muir and Davis are considered by many to be among the more even-handed voices in broadcast news. Owens, however, remains unfazed by their reputations.
