Donald Trump returns to Fox News after flap
Yahoo News - AP ^ | Aug. 11, 2015 | JILL COLVIN

Donald Trump returned to Fox News Tuesday morning for the first time since attacking the network's Megyn Kelly in the wake of her tough questioning of the GOP candidate for president during the party's first debate.

But he made no mention of Kelly or her questions during his brief phone interview with "Fox & Friends" host Steve Doocy, making only passing reference to his brouhaha with the network, saying that they'd "always been friends."

My time with faux news and faux sports are over. If I’m to see/hear The Donald, it’ll have to be somewhere else.

They may have made their deal with DT, but I won’t be wasting my time with them.

The damage they’ve done goes far beyond a simple skirmish with Trump.

Trump CNN Interview which I’m assuming CNN will post more info later:

snip

Trump on Tuesday morning in an interview on CNN’s “New Day” proclaimed that he is
“the most fabulous whiner” when confronted with an opinion piece that criticized
him using the same label.

“I do whine because I want to win and I’m not happy about not winning and I am a
whiner and I keep whining and whining until I win,” Trump told CNN’s Chris Cuomo
on Tuesday.

Trump was pressed for specifics on the issues he’s raised on the campaign trail
and touched on every issue from abortion to equal pay for women to foreign policy
during the half-hourlong interview on Tuesday.

end snip

The Katrina flap showed me all I needed to know about Fox News, I am surprised it has taken a decade for everyone else to start seeing the light.

No apologies, no concessions, no change of behavior, and the candidate got the media giant to beg for him to come back.

And yet we have seen time and time again how “our guys” get pushed around by the media.

Not going to vote for him, but I hope conservatives pay attention to what Trump is teaching them.

Also note on Jill Colvin Twitter account endless negative mentions of Republicans. One tweet about Hillary’s “excellent health”

That’s right. Trump can uses it for a microphone, but I am so done with that network. I stopped watching it years ago on a routine bases anyway.

The political debate game show was just too much when I realized it had morphed into a 3rd rate inquisition with Kelly doing her best Nancy Grace imitation.

Totally concocted, manipulated farce. Unforgivable from this viewers standpoint. And just confirmed why I stopped tuning them in long ago.

Exactly. I've got plenty of time to decide if Trump is worthy of the nomination, so I don't concern myself with it right now. But what he is doing is taking on the political elite and their toadies in the media, and we should all be grateful for that.

I bet they respect Trump a little more. That debate backfired on FOX big time. They’ll think twice before pulling that crap again.

**************

Trump was on CNN “New Day” earlier. I suspect they replay clips of it during the next
few hours. May can find it on some feed in it’s entirely also but I haven’t looked.

So FOX admittted targeting trump behind closed doors and made a deal/settlement that they won’t do it again and that both parties should not admit or deny anything.

Before you pat yourself on the back too hard, you weren't the only one who noticed back then that these were not really conservatives reporting on FNC.
