Cavuto Battles Frank: ‘Congressman, Is It Always Incumbent Upon You To Be So Condescending?’

Fox News anchor Neil Cavuto had a fiery exchange with House Financial Services Chairman Barney Frank (D-MA) this week. Early on in the interview, Frank criticized Cavuto for repeatedly cutting him off. “If you’re going to interrupt every five words, we don’t have a show.”

Frank also took exception to Cavuto’s suggestion that Frank was in favor of arbitrary caps on CEO pay. “I’ve never said that. I can’t deal with all of your distortions here,” Frank said. Cavuto hit back: “Congressman, is it always incumbent upon you to be so condescending or do you just want to answer my question?”

Watch it:

This isn’t the first time Frank has taken a Fox News anchor to task.

Progressives... please figure it out... boycott faux gnus... they only serve one master... not democracy, not truth, not the best interests of the citizens of the United States... they are first and foremost a mouthpiece of the fascists. Walk away from them and they will implode.

Barney is an old friend. He is a very good debater. Cavuto is used to having the power to turn on or cut the mic. He is a bully. Barney is a former wrestler, a very good one. Bullies usually run away from people who fight back.

Barney, is a 70'slib dancing.gif
