Limbaugh scorches Fox News in debate dispute with Trump
WND ^ | 1/27/2016 | Joe Kovacs

Posted on 01/27/2016 1:14:09 PM PST by GilGil

In the wake of Donald Trump’s refusal to be part of Thursday night’s Republican presidential debate on the Fox News Channel, radio host Rush Limbaugh says the popular cable network is acting like a bride whose groom had just fled the church on their wedding day.

“Fox News was acting as if they had been jilted at the altar,” Limbaugh said on his national broadcast Wednesday.

“Donald Trump knows that by not showing up, he’s owning the entire event. Some guy not even present will end up owning the entire event. And the proof of that is Fox News last night.”

That’s a lot of comments...

How many folks were mentioning the name Cruz while talking?

About and hour ago I ran a test on the last 250 threads here at that point.

I checked the titles.

Trump mentions: 110

Cruz mentions: 31

Rush,Levin,Beck and Hannity created THE Donald.


100% BS

Trump was on the air long before any of them even knew what a microphone looked like.

I'm not so interested in watching the debate.
Not because Trump won't be there, but because I'm not looking forward to seeing the all important kelly show.

I'm almost at the point (maybe I'm just tired) that I'm starting not to care about any of this dog and pony show.

Getting just fed up with the lot of them.

Hard to see Rush retiring! That type of man can’t retire.

FOX’s Megyn Kelly is killing them. Wasn’t initially a Trump supporter, but applaud this move to tell them to “stick it!” Everyone was fired up early in Debate Season when the candidated slammed the media, but now that it’s fair-and-balanced FOX they this network is playing the victim card ...

The groom looked into the future, saw the bride become a nagging shrew, and said f* this and split.

Mark wasn’t a few years ago. Was there some incident that caused him to go nutty?

Media people are media people. They all have to make themselves relevant otherwise they are not media. Levin is no different.

Rush will retire after this election.

He's only 65 and works from his mansion with lots of time off.

And I doubt his wife would accept the pay cut.

I have never liked Kelly even before all this. She has never looked attractive to me. One thing I know well and that is that celebrities look horrible when they are seen in person without the makeup. It is shocking. Kelly is no different. I’ve seen pictures of her in ordinary circumstances and she looks hideous.

....” Rush Limbaugh says the popular cable network is acting like a bride whose groom had just fled the church on their wedding day.”.....

He’s right. They finally had Hannity practically begging last night for Trump to reconsider when Trump apparently was refusing their calls.

This whole “thing” is like watching “Dallas” from one episode to the next.....with Trump and Megan playing JR and Sue Ellen....and switching places throughout. Keeps the revenues flowing for them both....and Fox makes out well too!
