Fox News has issued a formal apology to 16-year-old climate activist Greta Thunberg after conservative podcaster Matthew Knowles called Thunberg “a mentally ill Swedish child” during a panel discussion on The Story with Martha MacCallum.”The formal apology included “The comment made by Matthew Knowles…was disgraceful. We apologize to Greta Thunberg and our viewers.”
Knowles felt the ire of Fox News’ Chris Hahn, who told Knowles “How dare you? You’re a grown man and you’re attacking a child.” Knowles is still insistent that he wasn’t attacking Thunberg but rather “the left for exploiting a mentally ill child.”
