Backstabbing your loyal base has that effect. At least their pals zuckencuck and bozos with the support of congress will make plenty of laws abridging the freedom of speech. They already got the assembly part crushed. Guns and ammo are next.

Didn’t watch Fox News on TV before the election, but I was on their web site every day. Haven’t been back since the election, and never will be. It’s a puzzlement that companies can be so willing to stab a huge customer group in the back that way. So many have. Oh well, they need us, not vice versa.

like it to not, fnc’s ratings recovery began on inauguration day. it will be clearer in a few weeks or a month, but that’s what’s happening. it was always what was going to happen.

But, but...viewership is supposed to go down at least 97% after an election, so Faux News is ahead!

Dirty air, dirty water, throw granny off a cliff!

Fox news and the gop is like the cheating spouse who continues to lie. While believing you will never really leave for good.

Well, I’ve already moved on and ain’t lookin back.

Why waste time watching a “fiction” show on the inauguration when I could be out buying a fresh donut?
