The problem is that the other are even worse. FOX at least has Jeanine Pirro and several others have been reasonably fair as far as I can tell.
I’m sure Trump does not have a problem with a few, namely, Pirro, Bolling, hannity. I don’t know. But it is ridiculous over there
Oreilly saying Trump wants people to like him?
mischaracterizing people is juvenile. And transparent.
Some will buy that argument, but it works both ways Trump says Kelly is a bimbo. Well, she dresses like one on the air so people will look at that and say hmmm. Thee are still allowed to think for ourselves and some people are listening to Trump and considering what he says with no reason to feel loyalty to any news source
“The problem is that the others are even worse. FOX at least has Jeanine Pirro and several others have been reasonably fair as far as I can tell.”
Not any more. Lou Dobbs who was always good to Trump and gave him a fair shake, turned on him last night, out of nowhere. BOR just turned on Trump big time this week also. And Trump thought BOR was his friend. A most fair weather friend indeed. Hannity pretty much just avoids talking about Trump much at all anymore. Poor Hannity, he doesn’t want to say anything bad because he likes Trump, so he has just stopped talking about The Donald.
Of course, Megyn Kelly has been overtly snide and subtly vicious. She is now on my permanent sh*tlist. The Five are all hostile to Trump with the exception of Eric Bolling who just says mostly nothing. Gutfeld is a little slimeball, constantly mouthing off against Trump. Juan Williams is always a disgusting propagandist and lies about Trump (and everything else, for that matter) constantly, and Kimberly just sits there. Dane Perino is a Bushbot of longstanding, and trashes Trump every chance she can get away with it and that’s all the time now.
Geraldo Rivera who once was a longstanding friend of Trump and competed on his Apprentice show and even came in 2nd to the winner, has turned on the guy who treated him like gold and put him on The Apprentice. Paid him to boot. Ingrate. The memo went out to them all, and they are all bowing to their Big Kahuna and trashing Trump in unison on every show with regularity.
By the way, guess where Bob Beckel is now. He’s on CNN as a political consultant. He’s on Michael Smerkonish’(sp?) show on the weekends, around 4 or 5 on Saturday afternoons (maybe Sunday too, not sure). After being inflicted with Juan Williams or Geraldo Rivera on The Five now all the time, it was a total relief to find Beckel (never thought I’d say that) on CNN.
I will now watch that show on CNN rather than anything on Fox. At least I know what they really believe and think on the liberal channels and can work around it in my mind as they shoot from the hip and it’s obvious what their bias is. Whereas on Fox, we all had some expectation of them being fair and giving both sides of any equation, but they aren’t anymore.
Fox now lies, obfuscates, commits the sin of omission, and the discordance is just too great between what my expectations of Fox used to be, and what they have become. I will also watch Morning Joe on PMSNBC in the morning rather than Fox & Friends, a program that Trump used to call into every Monday morning until he decided to run for the Presidency. It’s too bad, because Brian Kilmeade and Steve Doocy both like Trump and this must be making the two of them just sick.
I reiterate, I hope Fox sinks like lead to the bottom of the ratings sea.
