WATCH: Journalist Drew Hernandez passionately defends Kyle Rittenhouse

Drew Hernandez, host of the "Drew Hernandez Live" show and investigative reporter, was on "Fox And Friends" on Friday where he gave a passionate speech about the verdict in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial.

Hernandez, who himself was a witness during the trial since he was recording the events live at the time, first talks about what he saw in Rittenhouse's reaction when the not guilty verdict was read aloud:

"Watching Kyle just buckle, literally collapse, that was not some punk kid that realized he just got off the hook. That was a human being that understood that his life was literally on the line, that a lie was about to put him behind bars for the rest of his life."

"And you literally watched a human being experience freedom, the entire weight of the world lifted off his shoulders, because he was about to lose his freedom based on a lie."

"I mean, the fake news media cartel has been painting him to be this white supremacist that showed up to Kenosha to shoot a bunch of black people as an active shooter, which is one hundred percent false. That's one hundred percent false."

"And that's not my opinion. I was there from night one."

"I'm getting phone calls, ok?  I've been getting phone calls from people saying 'hey Drew, I had no idea that Kyle did not shoot any black people? I had no idea."

"There are literally millions of people in this country that still believe right now that Kyle Rittenhouse was a white supremacist on a rampage, an active shooter that showed up to Kenosha to shoot black people! It's just simply not true!"

"Kyle Rittenhouse shot and killed a convicted child rapist, Joseph Rosenbaum, that was charging him from behind. America can decide for itself whether that was a psychopath or not."
