Brian Stelter isn't sugarcoating it:

BRIAN STELTER: The Trump White House has a record of misleading the public. All administrations spin. This administration lies consistently, whether it's Sanders, or Spicer, or other White House aides. And it’s all led from the top by a president who lies even about the weather and the time of day. That, I think, is why this deserves outrage and backlash.

It's not about disagreeing politically, it's about the lying. The constant, constant lying.

No one on Planet Earth was surprised by Fox and Friends.

Dancing with the Stars normalizes and diminishes the crimes Spicer committed on behalf of Trump.

OF COURSE Spicer wants this to be an "apolitical" hire. But again, it has nothing to do with politics and everything to do with ABC's act of gaslighting.
