Actresses Kristen Bell, pictured at the Hollywood premiere of ‘Veronica Mars’ last week, caused much grumbling at Fox News over her tweet about taxing the rich.
“Veronica Mars” star Kristen Bell is getting panned by her toughest critics – Fox News.
The right-leaning news network’s Neil Cavuto slammed the 33-year-old actress for a tweet that called for the rich to be taxed at a higher rate.

“Should the star of Veronica Mars just go live n Mars,” asked Cavuto opening the Wednesday night segment of Fox News’ “Your World With Neil Cavuto.”
His guest Dave Maney, the CEO of Deke Digital, chimed in by suggesting that Bell, herself a millionaire, could donate extra money to the government if she so chose.
Maney then speculated that Bell’s real motive was to get some publicity for her latest film – “Veronica Mars” opened last Friday.
“Kristen is a pretty savvy social media promoter of herself and her film is not doing too well at the box office and I think it was a good way to get her name in the news,” he said.

Bell whipped up an Internet debate when she tweeted Wednesday:
Conservatives were not so impressed with Bell’s proposed taxation policy.
Cavuto and Maney went from deriding Bell — who also voiced the main character in Disney’s hit animated film “Frozen” — to complaining about how the federal government wasted the tax dollars that it did receive.
“But she was great in ‘Frozen,’” Cavuto concluded of Bell at the end of the segment.
