Biden frustration with Fox News breaks through surface

President Biden’s irritation with questions and coverage from Fox News is starting to break through the surface.

Biden in the last week has twice snapped at reporters for Fox News and was caught on a live mic on Monday describing the network’s White House correspondent Peter Doocy in decidedly impolitic terms after a question about inflation, which is widely seen as cutting into the president’s approval ratings.

“Will you take a question on inflation?” Doocy asked Biden on Monday. “Do you think inflation is a political liability ahead of the midterms?”

“No, it’s a great asset,” Biden said sarcastically into a microphone. “More inflation. What a stupid son of a bitch.”
