"And this is something I would say as critical of the DNC," Yang added."There was a decision early on in the process where Fox News said, 'We would like to host a DNC debate.' And to me, if you're the DNC, you jump at that. You're like, 'Let me show my candidates to people who generally watch Fox News.'"reached out to the DNC for comment but did not receive a comment in time for publication.
