Republican Candidates and the Media: Ted Cruz Challenges Fox’s Megan Kelly, Jorge Ramos Ejected from Trump News Conference

Previously, it was Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump having a run in with Megan Kelly of Fox News.  Now, Senator Ted Cruz is — in a less caustic way — attacked Kelley on the air.

 

Yesterday, Megyn Kelly repeatedly pressed Cruz to give a straight answer on whether he would deport an illegal immigrant family if the children were born in the United States. Cruz didn’t directly answer Kelly. So she said, “You’re dodging my question.” She asked, “Do American citizen children of two illegal immigrants… get deported under a President Cruz?” “I get that’s the question you want to ask,” Cruz responded. “That’s also the question every mainstream media journalist wants to ask.” Kelly kept at it, saying, “Why is it so hard? Why don’t you just say yes or no?”

The Republican candidates seem to be having a hard time with the media.  CNN reports that Jorge Ramos of Univision was ejected from a Donald Trump press conference.
