The 2018 denunciation was on a progressive YouTube show, where the then-mayor said, &#8220;I don&#8217;t support fracking, at all, and I never have.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Lemon was seeking clarification on the moment during the Oct. 25 <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/democrats\/watch-dems-media-struggle-to-spin-fettermans-debate-performance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/democrats\/watch-dems-media-struggle-to-spin-fettermans-debate-performance\/&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1667414776217000&#038;usg=AOvVaw3-kA6Sjje3o3J4f1uQIM0L\">debate<\/a> when Fetterman said he did support it.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;I do support fracking.
