Re “For Warren, Appearance on Fox News Is ‘Hard Pass’” (news article, May 15):Re “For Warren, Appearance on Fox News Is ‘Hard Pass’” (news article, May 15):
Elizabeth Warren is correct in her characterization of Fox News as extreme. But it is not smart political strategy to turn down a TV megaphone into millions of potential voters’ households. Turning down a Fox News town hall is not on the same moral plane as refusing to attend a big donor event or accept corporate PAC money.

Ms. Warren is not going to change the tone at the right-leaning network by refusing the Fox invitation. Her job — like that of all the Democratic candidates — is to win the race against President Trump by making inroads among at least some of his supporters.Ms. Warren is not going to change the tone at the right-leaning network by refusing the Fox invitation.

Ms. Warren’s authentic messaging, coupled with her ambitious progressive and meticulous policy proposals, would likely appeal to a significant portion of Fox viewers. She should reconsider her decision.Ms. Warren’s authentic messaging, coupled with her ambitious progressive and meticulous policy proposals, would likely appeal to a significant portion of Fox viewers.
