Kari Lake, the former news anchor who is running for U.S. Senate in Arizona, expressed her frustrations with the media in an interview with Scripps News.
Lake claimed, "The fake news has spent many years being biased."
She added, "The media has to do better, the people are fed up with the nonstop attacks on President Trump."
Lake was asked about the term "fake news," and separating out claims that may be a fabrication and the things that people "can see with their very own eyes," as Scripps News' Del Walters put it.
"I was on Capitol Hill during January 6, it was not a peaceful protest. Six people lost their lives in the days that followed. One of the charges against the former president stems from January 6," Walters told Lake. "Those boxes found at his Mar-a-Lago estate. They didn't get there by mistake, and part of the charges involved the cover up. There was an independent council assigned to that case."
Lake responded, "We're finding out a lot of new information, and the videos that we've been shown, we're seeing that there were a lot of instigators in there. And, a lot of people who are innocent didn't do anything wrong."
Lake is running to fill the seat of Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, who announced she would not seek reelection. She is taking on Democratic Congressman Ruben Gallego.
