Fox Sports says they will not air any live anthem coverage from any other game except for the London contest between the Miami Dolphins and New Orleans Saints. Last week, the network aired the national anthem from games as more than 250 players took a knee during the anthem to protest President Trump calling for NFL players to be fired for what he says as disrespect to the flag. The Tennessee Titans and Seattle Seahawks chose not to even leave their respective lockers during the anthem. "As we have in previous broadcasts of NFL games from London, Fox will show...

After engaging in character assassination against Green Bay Packers fans who chose not to protest during Thursday’s National Anthem, FS1's Undisputed co-host Shannon Sharpe did the same with the American flag, declaring it to be merely a racist “piece of cloth” that “nobody fights for.” “The flag, you see, to a lot of people, symbols, patriotism but what does that symbol actually mean? What does — what does – okay — you keep telling me that the flag means so much and it's opportunity and freedom and liberty. Okay. Can you honestly say that everybody in America has freedom and...

A woman accused of leaking classified information on Russia’s role in spreading misinformation during the 2016 election told FBI agents that her frustrations over Fox News prompted her to print out an intelligence report, stuff it in her pantyhose, and sneak it out of the National Security Agency office where she was working. Reality Winner told FBI agents she had repeatedly complained about Fox News being on the TV at the NSA office she worked in, according to a transcript of the interview submitted to court on Wednesday, Politico reported. According to the transcript, the 25-year-old linguist told the FBI...

Bill O’Reilly is making his triumphant return to Fox News. The disgraced former host will appear on the network as a guest on Sean Hannity’s show on Tuesday to promote his new book, “Killing England." O’Reilly was fired from Fox News in April amid allegations of sexual harassment, abuse and racial discrimination from former female co-workers.

"Megyn Kelly Today" is meant to be the final, dazzling piece of Kelly's multimillion-dollar transmogrification from steely Fox News host to a mushy, hugs-for-everybody, midmorning TV host. It premiered Monday on NBC in the 9 a.m. hour of the "Today" show, proving only that the experiment is far from successful. The debut was like watching a network try to assemble its own Bride of Frankenstein, using parts of Ellen DeGeneres, Kelly Ripa and whatever else it can find. The resultant lovely creature, dressed in a mauve, pussy-bow blouse and skintight pants, moved stiffly and waved her arms around in broad...

Tonight, Fox News will begin to take the first steps in an attempt to undo the damage to its brand caused by over a year’s worth of bad news and poor decisions. The cable channel’s strongest on air personality, Sean Hannity, will be shifted to the center of prime time and its weakest show, The Five, will be banished from the evening schedule. These and other moves are setting the stage for the biggest battle yet in the cable news wars involving FNC, CNN, and MSNBC. For the past fifteen months, Fox News has been in trouble. In July 2016,...

Per Fox news poll It's their right of free speech - 51% Disrespectful to the country - 49%

Jimmy Kimmel went on a tirade against Fox News’ Brian Kilmeade Wednesday night, ultimately threatening to “pound” him the next time he saw him. On Fox News early Wednesday, Kilmeade criticized Kimmel for constantly talking about health care despite running a comedy show.

The British government will refer Twenty-First Century Fox Inc.’s bid for satellite broadcaster Sky to the country’s competition regulator for further examination, in a blow to Rupert Murdoch’s takeover plans. Culture Secretary Karen Bradley told lawmakers Tuesday that she intended to refer the takeover to the Competition and Markets Authority because of concerns that the deal might concentrate too much power in one company’s hands. Murdoch already owns British newspapers including the Sun and The Times of London. And she said she was also “minded” to refer it out of concerns about broadcasting standards. Bradley said there is a risk,...

Conservative radio host Laura Ingraham will get her own primetime show on Fox News this fall, taking over the 10 PM slot on the network. Sources told CNN that Sean Hannity’s show will be moved one hour earlier to 9 PM and “The Five” will be moved back from 9 PM to its original time slot at 5 PM. The changes come after Eric Bolling was released from the network following sexual harassment allegations and his show, “The Specialists,” was cancelled. Ingraham, a former Ronald Reagan speechwriter, hosts her own radio show and is the founder and editor-in-chief of Lifezette.com....

While a cause of death has not been confirmed, sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ Eric died via suicide. However, Bolling said on Saturday that there were “no signs of self-harm” and that the family was awaiting autopsy results. Authorities have informed us there is no sign of self harm at this point. Autopsy will be next week. Please respect our grieving period. — Eric Bolling (@ericbolling) September 9, 2017

Eric Bolling and his son Chase (Facebook)SNIP A strange anomaly in this story is that Yashar Ali, the HuffPost freelancer who wrote the August 4 article alleging that Eric Bolling was guilty of inappropriate behavior years earlier, claims to have been the first one to break the news of Chase Bolling’s death. As far as I can tell, I am the only reporter who has taken note, as I did here on August 7, of some interesting and overlooked, and possibly relevant, aspects of Ali’s background before he became an investigative journalist.

Fox News just announced the decision to terminate popular host Eric Bolling amid allegations of inappropriate text messages — but as of Saturday morning, that was the least of Bolling's troubles. Sources are now reporting that Bolling's 19-year-old son, affectionately known as “Eric Chase,” passed away on Friday night. A source close to Eric Bolling confirmed the news to Mediaite. A statement from Fox News is expected soon. Bolling has spoken of his son fondly and often on Twitter: It is clear that Bolling deeply loved his son and took great pride in watching him grow up.

This weekend in Philadelphia, a four-day-long convention of LGBTQ (gay, lesbian, transsexual, bisexual, queer) activists is meeting with leading mainstream journalists and corporate media producers and executives. The stated purpose is to influence mainstream reporting. Issues include same-sex marriage, transgenders in the military, isolating conservative religious groups as hate-mongers, and how to cover President Donald Trump. Incredibly, the journalists are there not to report on the event, but to be enthusiastic participants while their employers help to pay for it. It's one thing for a group like the NLGJA – the Association of LGBTQ Journalists, the sponsor of the event...

MacFarlane is lost in space with ‘Orville’ David Wiegand San Francisco Chronicle September 3, 2017 Seth MacFarlane’s new vehicle, “The Orville,” gets a special premiere on Fox on Sunday, Sept. 10, but it is far from being ready for takeoff. There’s something there or, more to the point, bits and pieces of something there, but it needs work. Boy, does it need work.

President Trump apparently has no plans to pardon "America's toughest sheriff" Joe Arpaio at his campaign-style rally Tuesday night in Phoenix. White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told reporters on Air Force One that there would be no discussion of a pardon and no action taken on that front at any point on Tuesday. Trump himself recently told Fox News that he was “seriously considering” a pardon for the former Maricopa County, Ariz., lawman. “I might do it right away, maybe early this week,” Trump told Fox News on Aug. 13. “I am seriously thinking about it.” When the...

Now for the top story tonight. Donald Trump giving a big foreign policy address yesterday in Washington. He joins us now from Evansville, Indiana. First of all, you did not mention Afghanistan in the address. We have got about 10,000 troops there right now. The place is still in chaos after 13 years. What exactly will you do about Afghanistan? DONALD TRUMP (R), PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: I would stay in Afghanistan. It's probably the one place we should have gone in the Middle East because it's adjacent and right next to Pakistan which has nuclear weapons. So I think you have...

The latest in our running list of victims is Eboni Williams, an Obama voter-turned-Fox News "Specialist" who spoke out against President Trump on his multiple responses to the events in Charlottesville despite her limited life experience, got some blowback and has now embraced the aggrieved status in a damage control effort to try and take her stalled career to the next level.

Fox News Channel is in discussions with the conservative radio host Laura Ingraham that could result in her coming to the 21st Century Fox-owned cable-news network as a regular host, a person familiar with the outlet’s plans confirmed early Tuesday. No deal has been signed, and there is no sense at this time when one might come to fruition, this person said. She already serves as a Fox News contributor.

Been watching FOX and MSM the last couple of days. Getting tired of trying to tell them apart based on their guests' stances on political/Trump issues on everything current and past. Juan Williams seems to be empowered and out of ranting control talking over people and yelling. Him along with a couple of females and Sheppie are repulsively biased which is now festered and oozing out.
