What's Going On With FOX News.Very Aware Polls Skewed For Hillary,Yet They Are Going Along With It.

Posted on 10/23/2016 11:34:22 AM PDT by Pence_Dispenser

And aren't we all saying this to ourselves? Fox News knows that most polls are oversampling Dem's by 10 to 15 points.Just like with ABC.Hillary has 50% now?,Really?.And who does ABC really expect to take their poll seriously being Hillary realistically can't reach 40 Percent. We call agree that something is up with Fox News.It seemed about six months ago they were agreeing with the polls that always had Trump ahead of Hillary by five to ten points,and lately most of the hosts are trying to convince us that Hillary is actually ahead by 6 or 7 points?

It comes down to this.

If phone calls are random and this it the partisan mix obtained, then that’s bad.

If phone calls are random, but they have a screen with an intended partisan mix, then it’s good because likely bogus.

But it can get more complicated. They can screen for blacks, graduates, whatever — and generate a partisan mix that way without explicitly trying to load with Dems. That would be good because likely bogus.

As I recall the polls being quoted that are pro Trump screen to a partisan mix that looks like the Gallup sampling of 2014 that is D+5. So screening happens in both directions.

The Globalist/Establishment had to get rid of conservative Roger Ailes at Fox News, the most watched news network, in order for the Globalist/Establishment media to SELL their attempt to RIG and STEAL the election for Hillary.

Remember while they will bash Trump for saying the election is rigged. At the very same time they claim they have to run the elections in order to protect us from the Russians rigging election.

The fake polls are coming out in order to use them as proof that Hillary is really popular. This is even though Hillary has tiny crowds compared to Trump. However, the controlled media wants you to believe that while people will not come out for a Hillary rallies, but they will landslide for her on Election Day.

It’s all a big lie. The desperate Globalist media Establishment are going to attempt to hijack our election. They are absolute criminals.

In this election it’s certainly more than a challenge attempting to be fair and balanced.....which no matter what Fox does to find that balance those of us supporting Trump won’t like it.

We know Kelly and Shep oppose Trump, Hannity and Dobbs support him, and the others shift according to the story of the hour....

So I will continue listening to Fox and just cut out Kelly and Shep unless they have an interesting guest i want to hear.

Lou Dobbs, Stewart Varney and Trish Regan on Fox Business are all superior alternatives to Fox News. Dobbs and Regan are pretty much doing news programs.

Actually, Megyn Kelly tries her best to be as honest as she can be without being fired for failing to do the dirty deeds she was hired to do.

FBN has Dobbs and Varney. They’re still worth watching.

Orders from the top I'm sure. Probably a memo. Fox pays for their (crooked) poll. All employees must use it as if it's the truth.

On the weekends, Fox spews takes it up a notch with their BS propaganda for Hellary.

However, other LSM polls have “magically” turned in Trump’s favor in key states.

Suddenly polls are starting to show Trump leading — It’s magic, Trump +5 Iowa, +3 Ohio, +4 Nevada, +2 Florida”

I don’t buy that.....Kelly likes to much being part of the story herself...I don’t listen to her because i don’t like her presentations now...regardless which side she comes down on....Don’t like her period. She
s not what she once was, who I did enjoy until they gave her her own show tie.she went downhill fro there..

Guys, it’s tough to criticize Fox when Trump’s own campaign manager seems to be accepting this narrative -

I’m trying to keep optimistic like everyone else, taking comfort in the few polls that show us ahead, but what is with Kelly Anne Conway making these statements? For those of you who were here like me in 2012, we got burned big time unscrewing those polls. I truly fear our country has slipped away already.

They called Gore winning Florida early and joined their media cronies with the red/blue map thing in 2000. Fox has always been a fraud.

I notice Dobbs has questioned some polls and I think he mentioned the IDB poll the other day. It has Trump up by 2 and was the most accurate poll in 2012.

On reddit this morning, I saw a post referencing a wikileaks email where they’re talking about oversampling.

Yup, it’s literally 95% of media, 100% of dems, 50% of repubs, 95% of entertainment VS Trump and us.
