'Devastating': Fox News host goes after Matt Gaetz for 'statutory rape'

Raw Story  

Fox News host Howard Kurtz kicked off his Sunday Media Buzz program by highlighting "statutory rape" allegations against former Rep. Matt Gaetz, President-elect Donald Trump's failed nominee for attorney general. "The Ethics Report found substantial evidence that Gaetz committed statutory rape by sleeping with a 17-year-old," the Fox News host noted. "It's embarrassing, though not criminal, that I probably partied, womanized, drank, and smoked more than I should have earlier in life," Gaetz wrote in one social media post. "This House ethics report naturally getting an enormous amount of media attention paints a pretty devastating portrait of Matt Gaetz, particularly this accusation about him having sex with a 17-year-old high school student," he added.
