Fox’s Roger Ailes to Sit Down with Donald Trump to Discuss Coverage
Mediaite ^ | September 24th, 2015 | Alex Griswold

Posted on 09/24/2015 11:03:59 AM PDT by monkapotamus

Only a day after Donald Trump announced that he was boycotting Fox News— and after Fox News announced they had cancelled him first– the network has announced that they will enter talks with Trump to discuss his concerns.

Below is the full statement, provided to Mediaite by a Fox News spokesperson:

Fox News Chairman & CEO Roger Ailes and Donald Trump spoke this morning and plan to have a meeting next week to discuss their differences of opinion regarding Fox’s coverage of Mr. Trump’s presidential campaign. Ailes will be joined by senior Fox editorial executives. Mr. Trump believes he has been treated unfairly in certain instances. FOX News has held every candidate in this race to the highest journalistic standards throughout our coverage. We believe a candid meeting about our differences is required and that any misunderstandings can be handled without compromising those standards.

Trump, on the subject of health/Obamacare said flatly ‘Sorry Conservatives”. My statement is true. It does not matter one inch if we get to Obamacarelike healthcare with Barry or Donald. Trump did not propose anything near a free market system. He said EVERYONE MUST...MUST be taken care of.

He’s releasing his tax plan next week. Like his other policies, it will be posted on his website.

There you go. Exactly right...

He would also be presenting our views to people how had never willingly listened to them before.

Like them or not, every other candidate would be clicked off before they could open their mouths. People stay to listen to Trump. That counts for something.

Buckeye- as a political junkie, I usually have a “sense” of how things are going to go re an election, but this one has has me stymied. I don’t know how this is all going to end re the nomination. I am hoping it is Cruz, but something tells me this will not be the case.
I am not looking forward to the next year. It is going to be brutal.
“May the best man( or woman) win” isn’t going to apply.

Trump was given an opportunity to talk foreign policy and the only thing he could come up with was a rehash of Hillary’s reset button....except of course this time they would ‘naturally’ respect him.

Stop blaming the others for not allowing trump to talk substance. He by far had the greatest mic time and he said nothing.

Glen has it wrong.

Trump provided his number to the networks so they could call him.

Find the article where Ivanka descrines how the board room works when they are all working on a project. Very enlightening! He chooses best. Then brainstorms. Discussion by all others. He listens Asks question. Eliminates and repeats.
Very well run. Great manager

” I like Trump, but his attacks on press commentators and other candidates are a big turn-off and make him look like a juvenile.”


You may not like his methods it’s the only way to take on the MSM and win. This culture war we’re in IS a war, and if you don’t treat it as such, you will not win.

Horse crap. The fact he is a fighter is why he leads the others. The others have to pretend, it comes natural to the Trump.

The media and the GOPe are only upset because somebody isn’t taking their BS.

That is exactly what I was going to say using the word “blink.” You beat me to it. The media resents getting the black eye. They prefer giving them.

Trump is pummeling them and Ailes is admitting that Trump is big, big ratings. He is amazing.

“Most of the current advocates of “immigration reform” promise us that amnesty will just be a one-time deal,”

They are scum of the earth, proven LIARS

“...Trump has to be prepared for the games of the MSM.”

And they will do the same exact same thing, but from a different angle.

For example:

The FIRST question Megyn Kelly asked Trump: it was not a question, it was a smear, and it was not designed for him to sink his teeth into with substance, but to set the tone for the rest of the debate, that Trump is a horrible person.

Second debate: the FIRST question about his mental stability and the nuclear trigger; it was not a question, it was a smear, and it was not something designed for him to sink his teeth into with substance, but to set the tone for the rest of the debate, that Trump is a horrible person.

Third debate: Want to bet real money it will be any different?

Regarding Cruz talking with God today?

Trust me when I tell you that MILLIONS of people caught that blasphemous-like question and MILLIONS heard and liked Ted Cruz' response to that poor poor woman.

Just because it isn't discussed to death on FR doesn't mean Evangelical Christians aren't seeing what's going on in these matters and communicating with each other about them.

IF Ted Cruz ever is elected President, in whatever year, a great part of his success can rightly be attributed to Kelly Maygun's ill-advised slur on God in that "debate" in 2015.
