NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Fox News anchor Laura Ingraham has come under scrutiny once again but this time for quoting Martin Luther King Jr on X, formerly known as Twitter.
This comes after Ingraham was brutally slammed for labeling Joe Biden and Mitch McConnell’s wives a "big problem," arguing that both parties are "no longer capable of working full time."
Laura Ingraham quotes Martin Luther King Jr
On Saturday, September 2, Fox News anchor Laura Ingraham quoted Martin Luther King Jr on Elon Musk's platform X.
The tweet read, “If you can't be a pine on the top of a hill, be a scrub in the valley—be the best little scrub on the side of the hill," MLK Jr urged the audience."
Ingraham's tweet further read, "Be a bush if you can't be a tree. If you can't be a highway, be a trail. If you can't be the sun, be a star. It isn't by size that you win or fail—be the best of whatever you are.”
However, labeling the network as 'Faux News', Internet users slammed Ingraham for quoting American Baptist minister and activist Martin Luther King Jr, who was assassinated in 1968.
Internet calls Laura Ingraham a ‘great liar’
