Presidential hopeful Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) has taken to social media to announce that she has turned down an offer to do a town hall with Fox News, taking the opportunity to lambaste the media outlet.

“Fox News has invited me to do a town hall, but I’m turning them down—here’s why ... Fox News is a hate-for-profit racket that gives a megaphone to racists and conspiracists — it’s designed to turn us against each other, risking life & death consequences, to provide cover for the corruption that’s rotting our government and hollowing out our middle class,” she wrote as part of the series of tweets she posted on May 14.
