Wallace urged his viewers to focus on the "facts," not the spin.

“But, you know, we have to deal in facts," Wallace said. "And the fact is that this letter from the special counsel, and it was one of at least three contacts with the attorney general between March 25 and March 27, was a clear indication that the [special counsel] was upset, very upset, with the letter that had been sent out by the attorney general, and wanted it changed, or wanted it at least added to and the attorney general refused to do so. He felt the attorney general’s letter was inaccurate.”

Mueller in his letter “expressed a frustration over the lack of context” to Barr’s summary of Russian election interference, contacts between Russians and members of President Donald Trump’s campaign, and Trump’s efforts to sabotage the investigation.

Barr’s four-page memo to Congress was fuzzy, Mueller wrote, because it downplayed the significance of the evidence Mueller collected, specifically on whether Trump obstructed justice.

“The summary letter the Department sent to Congress and released to the public late in the afternoon of March 24 did not fully capture the context, nature, and substance of this office’s work and conclusions,” Mueller said.

Wallace stressed this point.

“What he says in the letter is, ‘You didn’t reflect what we found in the report,’ and there were a lot of people—having read now the full report, or as much as it has not been redacted—agree that he didn’t reveal what was fully in the report," he said.

“Again, those aren’t opinions, that’s not a political agenda, those are the facts.”

Indeed they are, but as Lis Power from Media Matters pointed out, Fox has a way of deliberately confusing people.

Bill Hemmer has done it:

Laura Ingraham certainly does it:

So has Martha McCallum:

Even guests, like Andy McCarthy, seek out ways to distort reality.

That is what made Wallace's moment of clarity a whiff of fresh air, albeit a small one.

On Wednesday morning, the pro-Trump trio of Fox & Friends sided with Barr, despite Mueller's misgivings.

“They’re misinterpreting it,” Fox News co-host Ainsley Earhardt said of Mueller's letter. “Yeah, exactly,” co-host Steve Doocy replied.
