Citation From the August 30 edition of Fox Business' Varney & Co.

STUART VARNEY (HOST): Wait a second. The New York Times goes out of its way to describe our president as a racist. That is a subjective opinion. It is masquerading as objective fact — which it is not — and I don't think a reputable news organization should be doing that. 

RICH KARLGAARD (PUBLISHER, FORBES): Well, they do. They're doubling down, there's no question about it. Between now and the election, I think they're trying to do everything they can to dislodge the Trump administration. I mean, that's just beyond debate at this point.

VARNEY: I just object to subjective language in the news section, as opposed to the opinion section. That's my problem.
