With its big debate night in the can, the good news for Fox is that its usual enemies on the left hate it quite a bit less, at least for the moment.
The unfortunate side effect: an avalanche of complaints from very angry conservatives who thought they might have been watching MSNBC by mistake. Many are longtime viewers who are now feeling betrayed.
At CNN, Brian Stelter provided a roundup of the “almost unanimously positive reviews” Fox’s “tough debate questions” generated. Included were a former Obama Administration official, a liberal magazine editor, a public radio host and BuzzFeed’s editor-in-chief. All had nothing but praise:

Exactly. Faux News is a fraud.
Yup. Congrats FoxNews you’ve arrived!
Fox, much like the Republican Party, has obviously decided it’s better for business to replace their conservative audience/conservative base with Leftists (i.e., MSNBC viewers, et al./legal and illegal mexicans, et al., respectively).
Wallace as PREDICTED was an ambush-assassin;
but for who?
Jeb.
Romney.
Soros.
Obama and Hillary.
Rove.
Evidence of media commonality. Fox sounds just like the liberal media.
Fox just joined the rankings of the MSM, RINOs, GOPe, and the libtard bases....enough said....
Well then, they must all agree that FoxNews is the appropriate channel to do the Democrat Debates too, yes? I would LOVE to see that! But it won’t happen. Big Media only loves FoxNews when they are destroying Republicans. And one good question for the Dem candidates would be: Do you make a distinction between Legal Immigrants and Illegal Immigrants? Why not?
I want tough questions especially for those I am considering casting a vote. Softball questions serve nobody.
Some of the questions were just baiting or sensational rather than ‘tough.’ I’m guessing someone thinks it makes for better TV.
They were interview questions though - I didn’t hear much debating amongst the candidates.
Like a movie set in Hollywood, Fox News puts up a conservative façade that looks real but there’s nothing behind it. Its all for appearances to fool the viewers into thinking they are seeing the real thing. This deception has worked well for Fox over the years but last night there was a fire on the movie set and the façade burned down exposing the veneer for what it was.
...it's a trick question

Jeb is the strawman for another 2016 Democratic win.

Of course they believe Fox did a great job: they know Trump can’t beat Hillary. The minute we start paying attention to Cruz, Hillary’s agents will start attacking. In the meantime they applaud us at the gallows.
There’s no choice between stinking fish.
If this is how FOX News treats him, how much worst will the other liberal networks treat him.
He slapped these moderators around and I'm sure he'll do the same to others.

Agree. Its likely that the “road map” to 2016 has already been drawn out. Yeb is simply playing his role and reading his script until the dénouement when he’s finished. We’ve seen this movie before.
Stupidity can not be corrected.
No doubt about it, the second debate moderation was pitifully unprofessional.
