NY Mayor Bill De Blasio’s Latest Soap Box: Fox News
Canada Free Press ^ | 08/09/19 | Judi McLeod

Is Fox News trying to get ahead of the cord-cutting curve in a desperate move to boost its ratings?

New York’s commie-loving mayor Bill de Blasio has found an unlikely soapbox for his 2020 presidential run: Fox News.

If you happened to nod off and woke up to see de Blasio on Sean Hannity’s show last night, , you may have imagined you were having a nightmare.

But that really was de Blasio pontificating at length about his radical plans for America and it really was Sean Hannity—not just providing him leeway but even joking with him.

I saw that. He did not help his cause.

On the other hand, it is a refreshing change. A left wing presidential candidate who is willing to meet one of our guys and grant an interview.

Didn’t bother watching. Figured it would be a glorious waste of time.

NO!

Hannity is "obligated" to offer "fair time" to candidates and has already had Trump on.

It won't help any Lib to be faced with real questions, although, Hannity isn't the sharpest interviewer.

Faux news blew it - they are dead man walking.

OANN is where it’s at.

It amazes me how, when someone here has an honest disagreement with something Trump does or does not do, they get attacked here and mocked and ridiculed and scorned.

But fox actually tried to torpedo the Trump candidacy from the starting gate with lies and innuendos by kelly and baeir. AND with the blessing of faux news management.

Yet y’all still think fox is your friend. Any talking head that stayed with fox after that is not your friend either.

OANN is for patriots. FOX is for fools.

It was so bad that Sean did not run another segment last night. Maybe tonight.

Big Bird came off as a bully and a kook.

Hannity was himself.

Bad mix the made for don’t waste your time tv.

That's all well and good, but not all of us get OANN.

It was boring and annoying. I love Sean, but he is too nice!

Absolutely, we'd all be wayyyy better off if we could get rid of Baer, McCallum, Carlson, Hannity and Ingraham.

Who needs dumbells like that on the booby anyway?

I’m not the only resident in my house. If I cut the cable the natives would riot.

You missed the point.

In addition to your missing my point you should know (but obviously don’t), it’s not what these people tell you, it’s what they DO NOT tell you that is hurting you and all of us.

Your comment was a little bit snarky, and that’s okay. But you need to open your eyes and expand your horizons.

Your freedom and liberty depends on it.

No I didn’t.

The point you made is that you are a pretentious ass who doesn’t so much as impart fact or understanding, but rather talks down to others in order to feel better about himself.

You do it all the time. But don’t worry about it. There are hundreds of thousands of others just like you. Stick to your precious OANN and look down your nose at the rest of us, if that’s what makes you happy.

Cheers!

Fightin Whitey, I’m surprised at your attitude.

My original point is that fox news overtly and shamelessly tried to knock Donald Trump out of the race by lying about sexual misconduct and taking other things out of context. Do you not remember that?

Surely you know that had they been successful, Hillary would have been in the Oval Office and by now would have put the final nails in America’s coffin.

Think about that for a while. If they did what they TRIED to do, us deplorables would be in the gulag by now.

They do no deserve any of our time, money, or consideration for that reason.

You think that is being pompous? Would you also think it arrogant to stop buying Nike products because they all themselves to be endorsed by an anti-American bigot? How about the males who now refuse to buy Gillette razors because they have gone tranny?

We will never win the war by supporting those who work against us. Rather, they must be opposed.

I think you have misjudged me.
