Lawyer for Capitol riot suspect blames Fox News
A Capitol riot suspect was persuaded to storm the building on Jan. 6 after spending hours watching Fox News and listening to former President Donald Trump's election fraud lies, his lawyer said.
Anthony Antonio, 27, of Delaware, was arrested last month on five federal charges.
According to the Huffington Post, Joseph Hurley, a Delaware-based lawyer, blamed Antonio's behavior on him watching Fox News too much.
“He became hooked with what I call ‘Foxitus’ or ‘Foxmania’ and became interested in the political aspect and started believing what was being fed to him," Hurley said Thursday during a virtual hearing on Zoom, the outlet reported.

@dood111 saidThe point is that you all voted for Trump. That alone shows you've been manipulated.
Oh hell yeah I go out and commit crimes all the time after watching Fox, as do millions of others who watch THE most popular news station in America.
You know, unless you're just naturally stupid.
@suzianne saidManipulation, as you call it, was good for way over 70M people, including me. Did you miss the train? Downer. I can just see you and Sonhouse, in your ginghams on the platform, watching the train roaring nonstop through your station.

@vivify saidStupidity is no defence. The accused should get himself a better lawyer.
