To please the boss, Fox News is running Jeb, a total weenie Murdock can own with his campaign donations.
Multi-millionaires get nervous when they remember the French Revolution.

I stopped watching FOX long ago. I will occasionally watch Megyn Kelly. But the “news” isn’t worth my time.

Trump is now leading in New Hampshire and the poll results are being held back.

Trump took the lead last weekend from Bush and the results are still under embargo.

Not a surprise that Murdoch is butt-hurt like the rest of the Establishment Amnesty Pimps.

I never want to hear someone criticize Fox News as ‘conservative’ ever again.

“...the latest to decry the Republican candidate’s comments about Mexican immigrants...”

Trump’s comments were about Mexican illegal aliens, not immigrants. And he was right. This morning on Fox, Jim Webb added his two cents about Trump, mentioned Trump’s comments on “Mexican Americans” which is a new low in deception. I couldn’t help but notice how Webb dodged just about every question; Webb, the senator who who voted for the Obama agenda every time.

Trashing Trump is the easiest game in town for the elitists to be guaranteed an invitation to the latest hoity-toity cocktail party.

Any network that would regularly employ Kommunist Karl Rove isn't worth watching.

No, I don't watch. But I am raising my nephew and he does. So it is on in my house.

is that supposed to mean something?

It's beginning to. Trump's enemies are becoming an endorsement of his character and ability.

Mexican immigrants are DIFFERENT from ILLEGAL Mexican immigrants. When you enter United States illegally, you have already committed a felony.

I would agree that LEGAL immigrants probably commit fewer crimes than native born. But those LEGAL immigrants are not whom Trump is talking about. If you listened to his speech yesterday in Phoenix, that would become quite clear. Here is the video of his speech:

The marching orders appear to be clear or taking their cue from Murdock is to de-emphasize Trump on Fox as much as possible. Actually this stuff is going to backlash against the Establishment the more they push.

Yes Mr. Murdock, Donald Trump does not pretend to be “Fair and Balanced”. Trump tells unvarnished truth, whether it is balanced from a leftist point of view is immaterial.

Jeb ugh

He looks in that photo like a girl at her first prom. But he always looks like a variant of that role. He’s not gay he’s just that wimpy bully. So willing to schmooze with enemies and ignore friends and people whom he swears allegiance to, taking them for granted and so chicken around the powerful opponents

This country is suffering under these wimps they offer zero resistance

Look at that smile. He’s crinkling his nose

America has not been so neutered as to put up with the GOP making us suffer through a charade of him ushering in hillary

He's got the resources and personnel to disprove the following.. let's see him do it.. and BTW Murdoch if you really did say "Mexican immigrants" and not the criminal ILLEGAL immigrants that we all know exist then F-you.

ILLEGAL ALIEN crime.

I wanted to use federal data and include ILLEGAL alien crime but as a very informative study (Effects of Illegal Immigration Upon Crime In the United States) pointed out

"[T]he United States government does not readily keep statistics with regard to crimes committed by illegal immigrants. . . there exists a legal obligation [on federal agencies] . . . to report accurately [; e.g.,] the Office of Immigration Statistics, the Bureau of Justice Statistics, and the Government Accountability Office . . . the agencies [provide] raw statistical data with regard to incarcerations, criminal removals (deportations) and arrest information involving illegal immigrants [but as for data on] nationwide criminal prosecutions and convictions of illegal immigrants . . . no such information is kept and reported by the government . . . [in fact illegal alien crimes regularly result in] the criminal removal process rather than prosecuted with the intent to incarcerate them.

However the study did find that information about removal in lieu of prosecution and incarceration of illegal aliens can be seen in the

These provide raw statistical data because the statistics are broken down between criminal removals and non-criminal removals. Example: Table 41. ALIENS REMOVED BY CRIMINAL STATUS AND REGION AND COUNTRY OF NATIONALITY: FISCAL YEARS 2003 TO 2012

Total Criminal Non-
Criminal
2003 211,098 83,731 127,367
2004 240,665 92,380 148,285
2005 246,431 92,221 154,210
2006 280,974 98,490 182,484
2007 319,382 102,394 216,988
2008 359,795 105,266 254,529
2009 391,932 131,837 260,095
2010 383,031 169,656 213,375
2011 388,409 188,964 199,445
2012 419,384 199,445 219,939
2013 438,421 198,394 240,027

Data for years 2003 through 2012 were obtained from Table 41. ALIENS REMOVED BY CRIMINAL STATUS AND REGION AND COUNTRY OF NATIONALITY: FISCAL YEARS 2003 TO 2012

The source for 2013 is provided here along with other federal crime statistics

I don’t remember Trump making any comments about Mexican immigrants. I don’t know anyone who has a problem with those who come here legally. They are welcome here. Trump was commenting on the illegal alien invaders illegally coming here to rape, murder and pillage. Rupie needs to pay a little more attention and try to focus.

Murdoch’s just another internationalist, open borders billionaire. He can jet off from some place that his candidates make a hellhole for some more attractive place. Unfortunately, we’re stuck with the hellhole.
