I watched the first half ...which, with one big exception, seemed a 
relatively normal interview.  That exception was that Baier opened with 
-- and *pursued* -- a suggestion that Zelensky owed Trump an *apology*. 
I found that a true WTF moment ...similar to how Fox's website (above) 
leads with a question about Zelensky's *resignation*, ffs.
