Matt Gertz is a senior fellow at Media Matters for America, a progressive research center that monitors the U.S. media. His work focuses on the relationship between Fox News and the Republican Party, media ethics and news coverage of politics and elections.

“Everybody — Alan Dershowitz — everybody says there’s no crime here,” Donald Trump said before his trial in Manhattan resumed on Thursday. “There’s no crime. Jonathan Turley, every single person, Gregg Jarrett, Andy McCarthy, anyone you want to name, Mark Levin, great lawyer, all of them. Great lawyers, great legal scholars, every single one said there’s no crime. The crime is that they’re doing this case.

After Trump lost his re-election bid, attempted to stay in office by subverting the election results, and ultimately left the White House, his relationship with the network became somewhat more complicated. Fox founder Rupert Murdoch preferred for Trump to fade from the political scene, and for a while the network propped up his potential rivals and even reportedly instituted a “soft ban” on Trump interviews.
