Wallace abruptly left FOX in December to join CNN&#8217;s new streaming service, CNN+, and spoke with the New York Times about his choice to leave after 18 years and the circumstances that led up to it in an interview published Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m happy with different points of view: conservative and liberal,&#8221; Wallace remarked. &#8220;However, when people begin to doubt the facts \u2014 Who won the 2020 election? Was the 6th of January an uprising? \u2014 That didn&#8217;t sit well with me.
