'You’re a grown man and you’re attacking a child.'

Fox News has apologized after a guest criticized the teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg as a “mentally ill Swedish child”.

It is incredible to see what emotions this teenager elicits ... that is why she is unleashed on us ... in her eyes we see our soul ... all hands on deck! An angel or the devil? Truth or lie? This is not about her, but about you! She is just your mirror!

Why did they broadcast it? why didn’t they just cut it out? Apology not accepted. foxandfriends trash. FoxNews trash

The child needs to be seen and not heard

keithbaldrey lol

keithbaldrey She put herself and lies out there child or no child. Tuff nuts

the climate change debate is subjecting Australian children to “needless anxiety”. Greenhouse gas emissions have been rising in Australia since the Coalition repealed Labor’s carbon price despite the country’s commitments

The child has put herself in a controversial adult place. Even at her age, if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. Get a thicker skin.

Reminder: It's OK to trash teens so long as they're Republicans case: Covington High School

let's be clear he is a grown man who knows the 'child'is correct and morally right and he is scared shitless So he attacks because he is a bully

So.... All I'm getting from this is that they're shaming a child rather than encouraging her and others to use her words and knowledge to change the world? Because her standing up and speaking facts is so bad isn't it... worldsgonemad

Child(ren) of the Corn.

The left had no problems attacking children like Nick or Barron, and those two never sought to talk to nations or scold them. istandwithmichaelknowles

Go back to school and get 1% of education of the people you are blaming , and then talk 😌

How about, a 16-year old “child” (teenager!) has no business at business and political meetings for grown-ups in the first place and wouldn’t have been “attacked” if she was at school among her peers...just a logical thought...

Don’t get involved in politics then, it’s a cut throat world

It was a huge risk of putting the overwrought child in the same space as TRUMP. What, if she had blown her top and tried to waylay him; would her handlers then have taken the responsibility for what might have happened to her (Trump Security!)?

Ant they put a ch yo old up to be attacked. How are they free from blame?

When it suits her she plays the child/spectrum card. Can't gave it both ways, kiddo .

Did you really expect anything different from realDonaldTrump? Trump is envious of Greta being nominated for Peace Prize.

Great. When are they canning Laura Ingraham?

Let stop pretending Mike Knowles did something wrong I recall the guardian acting mentally ill when the fake war hero Indian got into the face of a 16 yr old Nick Sandmann. You had reporters wanting to punk his smirk off his face Greta is more like a robot programmed to spew hate

Greta thunberg has more eggs than Trump and those who criticize her

Yes that’s right. If she thinks she can get up & say the lies she must be corrected. Wikipedia-Asperger syndrome, OCD + more. That’s an illness. Parents allowed her 2B exploited. Disgusting & she appeared a bit obsessed. michaeljknowles

I thought she was a young woman....which is it?

There are real existential threats happening... at fukushima, in the developing world where it's more important to build weapons than feed people. Should we have feudalism in the Earth name? CO2 is what makes life possible. Yes we have problems. Garbage problems. 2/2

Is that what you said to the Covington High School students when they were called Nazi's? Hypocrite!!!

Haha '...attacking a child.' That's the point - a child. One who, given her way would kill everyone on the earth. How fast does she think we can replace 100 years of infrastructure? How fast can new technology become affordable for easy adoption on a global scale. 1/2

Where was this same pathetic faux outrage when the left were threatening and doxing the boys from Covington High School?

SHARE:

'people of where' are dark knees for whom everything is expendable, while the child talks about expense for nothing and growing up like a pedophilia worshipper that is all about self-indulging

A child shouldn't be used by dark money and interests then.

The Covington 'smirk' drama comes to mind, which was worse since he did & said nothing abusive or attempt to blame his viewers of DESTROYING THE PLANET!!

firstly. the fact that the poles are warming is an excellent thing.. this means that people may actually be able to inhabit the poles.. more earth for people to live on.. santa clause will have to share if it becomes warm enough for people to build communities..

Pedophrasty and the moment when you realize that your new prophet is not age enough to drink, smoke or fuck, and everything you say that is not in agreement or praise is attacking a child.

michael knowles is right...about his perceptions.. this needs to be a meeting of scientists not a kid in grade 10.. trump didn't miss a thing by being in another room talking about religion. the meeting with Greta came off badly.. if she had been contorting her face at me....

She came by the yacht. How much did it cost? How much CO2 was emitted to make that money

'grown' men don't attack children. Weak, immature, pathetic, petty men do.

LOL. Really, LOL. For liberals & the Guardian to be saying Greta the brat - who willingly entered the arena of public life - is off limits, but doxxing & threatening the Cov Cath kids was OK, is a bridge too far.

michaeljknowles represents himself as the lowest form of conservative inhumanity! His divisive rhetoric has no place in any media news network especially FoxNews!

Just paranoia.

Until thermonuclear power plants were invented, all these are just declarations, like it’s good not to litter the planet, so no one bothers you with turning off the electricity, buying nothing in a store, planting a garden and hunting with onions in the forest.

Here is a girl trying to save us from ourselves while here in FL our reps ignore climate change. She lives in Sweden, with global warming her country will become even more pleasant to live in so in reality shes doing us a solid by not wanting to destroy us so she can sunbathe.

Hmm, if you gonna dish it out, then you should be able to take the criticisms as well. So basically bunch of cowardly adults are hiding behind a child.

Nothing new from Fox

mazk_ara Should we tag the Indian 'Liberals'?

Nope, he is attacking a George Soros muppet and a symbol of the new favourite agenda of the left. Grow some skin.

Politics & Solutions Nowhere In Sight.!? They Emerge From People.! So Let's All Save Fruit Seeds and Grow Fruit Trees Everywhere Literally and Figuratively Along with School Kids to Sensitize Genext& Grow Globally 46 Billion Fruit Trees/YR SEQUESTER NOURISH ENRICH & ENLIGHTEN.!!

She has Aspergers She's Autistic Has OCD She has selective mutism and she's Swedish It might hurt a few snowflakes feelings but what he said was pretty accurate

She is still a teenager, and has som ruthless parents, who let her take all shit.

What’s with the she’s been brainwashed crap😡 She’s a child with passion and a will to do something good for the planet. She’s trying to teach us all. How about instead of mocking her you listen and learning something today😳 just a thought 💭

and child not attack all governement ? go to school before

morgfair May we all be as 'mentally Ill' as Greta. The world would, indeed, be better for it.

morgfair Now do despicable IngrahamAngle

Remember all of the 'grown ups' that attacked the Covington kids? I do.

As you said she's a child so she has no place between grown men...stop using children

morgfair Now Fox 'News' should apologize for the last 20 years or so and for Donald.

Is Greta just a child on an Adult stage or a young person with the opportunity to share her political views ?. Either way Greta stands and speaks 'on her own' so seems to be prepared for the narrative that comes with such visibility.

Fox News hires these corrupt and lying newscasters misinforming millions every day. It is time they are taken off the air. Fox is not news. It is a propaganda conspiracy network resulting in grave danger to the people and planet.

He got that wrong. Autism isn't a mental illness it's a condition.

No need to respect or listen to US Americans. Toxic mix of vile self-righteousness and narrow minded right wing populism.

FoxNews SUCKS!

And this is what her parents intend. They haven't the balls to say it themselves.

If you step in the arena you don’t get a “cannot criticize me “ card.

The DEPLORABLES in Fox are as stupid as the MORON they defend. Murdoch should be ashamed of his money making schemes. Won't be long before he goes to JAIL for his crookedness.

This monster is trying to reduce us all to abject poverty. It's not a child.

Just like when the MSM questioned .realDonaldTrump's son BarronTrump re autism

it takes a special kind of a-hole to go after a kid.... a special kind.

If she wants to stand in the arena with the big boys I think she needs to grow up a little. Or is she going to start crying again? The sad part is someone has brainwashed her to think she is doing the right thing but in reality, she is just a pawn who sold out her future.

You go girl 👏🏻💪🏼

And afterwards they do it again and again... 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
