Jane Fonda Accused Of Treason During Live Broadcast

Appearing on Fox News, Miller wasted no time in condemning Fonda’s historical activism, asserting that her journey to Vietnam in the 1970s amounted to treason against the United States. He argued that her collaboration with North Vietnamese Communist propaganda, including radio broadcasts and sitting on an anti-aircraft battery, was an egregious betrayal. Miller posed a pointed question to viewers: should Fonda, who he claimed committed treason, still be revered as a hero?

Fonda’s 1972 trip to North Vietnam became the focal point of Miller’s Fox News segment. He emphasized her vocal condemnation of the American military on Vietnamese radio, her provocative photo next to an anti-aircraft gun, and her symbolic gesture of wearing a Vietnamese soldier’s helmet. These actions, Miller insisted, earned her the infamous moniker ‘Hanoi Jane,’ a nickname that continues to evoke strong reactions among US veterans.

The Fox News interview aimed to rekindle public awareness of Fonda’s actions during the Vietnam War, framing them as an enduring stain on her legacy. Miller’s portrayal of Fonda as a traitor served as a backdrop to discuss her recent protests against pipeline projects, particularly her opposition to those initiated during the Trump administration.

While Fonda expressed regret for the controversial photograph taken during her time in Hanoi, Miller remained steadfast in his criticism. He questioned the authenticity of her remorse, asserting that her regret over the photo did not absolve her of the broader accusations of treason.
