Groups push Fox to question candidates on Internet subsidies

“For all of the talk of taxes, higher education [costs], and healthcare, candidates and journalists have largely ignored a critical issue that would make it easier and more affordable for low-income families, communities of color and rural Americans to find jobs, get an education, and increase the opportunities for their families and futures,” states the letter, which is addressed to Fox News hosts Megyn Kelly, Bret Baier and Chris Wallace.
