Because Rupert Murdoch had given control of Fox to his sons last summer; and because Rupert Murdoch is heavily invested in open borders and in Hillary Clinton.

“Kelly was horrific. But Baier [we were ready to physically escore Trump from the stage] and giggly [we have something big planned] Wallace were not much better.”
I just reread that - hilarious and spot on!
Fox thought they were too big to fail.
They were wrong ;)
Nicely played. All is forgiven
Deborah also is a witnessing Christian. Didn't fit into the MSM any more, God bless her.
LOL!
No, you had a point. I really think it has to do with the INTENSE primary season and people taking a break now that Trump has the nomination. And hating Kelly ;)
But I do wonder what watching only part of a show does to ratings...
I don’t have a ratings box on my TV and I don’t subscribe to cable so I would be under-the-radar on any ratings system I am aware of.
Snickering is the older word, according to Merriam-Webster, but not by much:
Snicker: First Known Use: 1694Appears to me that the era's multiple phonetic spellings are to blame for the small shade of difference. Sniggering seems to me to connote a tiny bit more suppressed form of laughing than snickering.
Snigger: First Known Use: circa 1706
I would think, with today's hysteria over triggering, that sniggering would excite the same inappropriate reaction as "niggardly", etc. Frankly, I'm surprised that "triggering" still makes the cut.
That debate...the whole panel was smug and stupid and they set themselves up to look like idiots.
The Fox audience is well educated and informed and they performed like they were playing to a crowd of baby mamas on MSNBC. They were not professionals, ready for prime time.
The whole fiasco fell on Kelly’s shoulders because she played the biggest stupid of the bunch, but all of them came off as amateurs who were not intelligent or serious enough to host a debate. It was a wrecked opportunity to get into serious policy issues and discussions facing our Nation during the election; not only just for Kelly, but for all of them.
They could have made Fox stand out as the best professional cable news station. They blew it. All of them - Wallace and Brett, too.
Great comment about the whole failure reflecting on the management. And I think Brett and Wallace got away without a scratch and they were as unprofessional as Kelly. They were all involved in planning a big fat failure.
We did that...recorded it, then watched it later. By, by DeNoso...
