Fox News Guest Caught With Mao Painting in Background!

A depiction of Mao Zedong, reminding of Andy Warhol's work, is hanging right above the mantel behind Ford.

Fox News host Bret Baier defended former Rep. Harold Ford (D-TN) on Thursday after viewers noticed a portrait of Mao Zedong, the late Chinese dictator, displayed behind Ford during an interview on Baier’s program.

“Harold is renting a house in a vacation spot for a few weeks -he doesn’t control the walls. Strong background analysis, but Harold is not a Maoist- he was elected in Tennessee. Thanks for watching!"

Ford responded:

“As [Baier] said, I’m just renting a place – didn’t choose the art – my house has Ali and MLK on the walls – no fan of Communist China or Mao – my public record and words on Fox and elsewhere about China prove that”

But doesn't it makes you wonder. Why would he choose to go live from the room with Mao depicted on the wall, instead of MLK?
