Fox News Skips Most Primetime Talk on $200 Billion Iran War Funding

Media Matters found Fox News devoted about 11 minutes to the Pentagon's $200 billion Iran war funding request through March 19, 2026, but allocated less than a minute in prime time (44 seconds on Jesse Watters Primetime and 19 seconds on Fox & Friends); the rest of the discussion occurred on other Fox programs. The report portrays the primetime coverage as minimal and not making the case for the funding, while noting Congressional skepticism and that the amount could shift, with defense officials not disputing the figure at the time.

Luna Delivers Ultimatum to Thune on Voter ID Debates

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna and Rep. Brandon Gill pressed Senate Leader John Thune on Fox News to move the SAVE America Act, which would require identification to vote in federal elections. They warned no Senate legislation would pass without a debate and vote, and signaled they could attach the measure to FISA if needed, while accusing the Senate of wasting time on a “dog parade.” Gill estimated 40–50 Republicans are prepared to stand firm on the issue as Luna vows to “hold the line” against the Senate’s inaction.

An on-air correction was issued, but critics argued the move could be seen as an attempt to bolster Trump’s image.
