Video: Michael Whatley Says North Carolinians Are Suffering From Crime and Answers Roy Cooper's Iran War Claims, on 'My View with Lara Trump'
A 4:45 Fox News clip with the North Carolina GOP Senate nominee. We relied on Fox's title and description, not a transcript.
Fox News posted a clip of Michael Whatley, the Republican nominee for U.S. Senate in North Carolina and a former RNC chairman, talking with Lara Trump on "My View with Lara Trump."
What Fox says. According to the network's description, Whatley pushes back on campaign claims made by his opponent, Roy Cooper, and talks about crime in his state. Fox says he also lays out his plan for U.S. energy and addresses Cooper's claims about the Iran war. The clip's headline quotes him saying "The people of NC are suffering because of the crime rate."
This post summarizes a short video. We relied on Fox News's published title and description, not a transcript, so we are limited to what the network says about it.
The description does not say which of Cooper's claims Whatley answers, what crime statistics he cites or what his energy plan contains. We have not checked those points ourselves. Cooper's campaign is not quoted in the description.
