On Wednesday, Jessica Tarlov, a liberal co-host on Fox News Channel's "The Five," accused former Hunter Biden associate Tony Bobulinski of having his legal fees paid by a Trump Super PAC, which prompted a demand for a retraction and an apology. "Tony Bobulinski's lawyers' fees have been paid by a Trump Super PAC that's as recent as January,” she claimed. Following the accusation, Bobulinski’s lawyer, Jesse R. Binnall, demanded an on-air retraction and an apology from Tarlov and threatened a defamation lawsuit against Fox if these demands weren’t met. "Let me be perfectly clear,” wrote Binnall. "We will immediately file...

On Wednesday, Tony Bobulinski testified before Congress in the ongoing impeachment investigation of Joe Biden. His damning testimony so triggered Jessica Tarlov, the liberal co-host on Fox News Channel’s “The Five,” that she sought to undermine it by accusing Bobulinski of having a pro-Trump PAC pay his legal fees. "Tony Bobulinski's lawyers' fees have been paid by a Trump Super PAC that's as recent as January,” she claimed before rehashing a false claim about Donald Trump. “Do you think that a guy who's invested in how much better off he wants the United States to be—and really getting to the...

Vice President Kamala Harris “occasionally” turns on Fox News to watch “The Five” — and criticism of her on the show has lately ” got in her head and caused high anxiety,” according to a report. A former aide to the vice president told Axios that Harris has reeled from the critical commentary by the Fox News personalities, which have included questioning her leadership skills and past relationships. “It got in her head and caused high anxiety because they were constantly hammering her,” the former aide said. Last June, “The Five” co-host Greg Gutfeld said the prospect of Harris taking...

Twitter was ablaze in the early morning hours with the latest smear of a right-leaning pundit. This time, it was Greg Gutfeld's turn … again. So what egregious sin did Gutfeld commit this time? According to left wing journalists and commenters, and functionally left wing figures like Bill Kristol, Greg Gutfeld 'downplayed the horrors of the Holocaust' … and worse. We're sure you've learned by now that you can't trust anything these people tell you. Your first instinctive reaction to such a story at this point should be distrust. They've earned it. So what actually happened? Greg Gutfeld downplayed the...

Geraldo Rivera kept a positive attitude on his 80th birthday, despite his recent resignation from Fox News following his dismissal from The Five on the network. 'I got a lot to celebrate,' the television host maintained during an appearance on Fox and Friends last Friday. He acknowledged that it was his last day on the network, as he had decided to quit entirely after being fired from The Five. .....

NEW YORK (AP) — Geraldo Rivera has quit as one of the lonely liberal voices on Fox News’ popular political combat show “The Five,” saying Wednesday that “a growing tension that goes beyond editorial differences” made it no longer worth it to him. The last scheduled appearance on “The Five” for the television veteran, whose 80th birthday is on July 4, is next week. “It has been a rocky ride but it has also been an exhilarating adventure that spanned quite a few years,” he said in an interview with The Associated Press on Wednesday. “I hope it’s not my...

Geraldo Rivera’s appearances on the Fox News program The Five were abruptly canceled this week, RadarOnline.com has learned, causing concerns that the veteran host may be the next victim to be axed from the conservative news network. In a sudden development to come just days after Tucker Carlson was abruptly fired from Fox News last week, Rivera took to Twitter to announce his scheduled appearances on The Five for both Thursday and Friday had been canceled. “My appearances today and tomorrow on The Five have been canceled,” he wrote on Thursday. “I’m sure there’s a good reason.” “Never fear, I’ll...

There is a new cable news ratings champion. Nielsen data for 2022 rank the Fox News round table program “The Five” as the most watched show in cable news with an average of 3.5 million viewers.

The program, which airs live at 5 p.m. Eastern and 2 p.m. Pacific, is also the first cable...

NEW YORK (AP) — Fox News Channel is airing the Jan. 6 committee hearings when they occur in daytime hours and a striking number of the network’s viewers have made clear they’d rather be doing something else. During two daytime hearings last week, Fox averaged 727,000 viewers, the Nielsen company said. That compares to the 3.09 million who watched the hearings on MSNBC and the 2.21 million tuned in to CNN. It completely flips the typical viewing pattern for the news networks. During weekdays when the hearings are not taking place, Fox News Channel routinely has more viewers than the...

Tucker Carlson’s primetime show on Fox News has smashed another key barrier. Deadline published the viewership results for cable news shows this week and Carlson, as well as Fox News, smashed all of the competition. Television viewership data found that Carlson’s show is the number one most-watched show among Democrats in the key demographic of 25-54 year-olds. “The data showed that Carlson pulled in 101,000 viewers who self-identified as Democrats in the 25-54 demographic. MSNBC’s “The Rachel Maddow Show” and Fox’s “The Five” were tied for second place, each attracting 88,000 viewers in the key demo who self-identified as Democrats....

Fox News national security correspondent Jennifer Griffin told her co-hosts Friday on “The Five” that the Biden administration is not overhyping the possibility Russia will invade Ukraine to draw attention away from special counsel John Durham’s investigation. Greg Gutfeld said, “There’s something else going on here that is–that feels very, very manufactured. And I don’t know what it is.” Kennedy said, “I know what it is. It’s Jake Sullivan.” She continued, “Jake Sullivan is the national security adviser. And he is in deep yogurt in the Durham probe, and he’s been the one saying, ‘We have so much intelligence an...

Each of the co-hosts is accomplished and insightful talent with diverse opinions and terrific chemistry who will certainly help drive this ensemble program going forward,” Fox News Media CEO Suzanne Scott announced on Wednesday. “Greg Gutfeld, Dana Perino, and Jesse Watters will continue to occupy the other three seats when the changes debut on Jan. 24. Later that evening, Watters’ new program, Jesse Watters Primetime, will kick-off as the outspoken star will anchor Fox News’ 7...

"White House accused of lying about crime wave crackdown; ‘The Five’ reacts."

When people are buying products, that creates more competition and prices become LOWER as sellers try to offer a better price than their competitors...at least that's what my twelve-year-old daughter said to me. Breathtaking that a "President" can't figure that out.

The co-hosts of "The Five" blasted President Biden Thursday for his administration's failures which even the liberal mainstream media have begun to recognize. As Biden's poll numbers drop amid inflation and supply chain shortages, at least one left-wing voice has turned on his own. "The honeymoon is over," political commentator Van Jones declared Tuesday on CNN. "This honeymoon was over faster than Ilhan Omar and her brother," "The Five" co-host Greg Gutfeld retorted. "The real question for people like Van Jones is, ‘What did you expect?’," co-host Katie Pavlich said. She called Biden a "lame-duck president," citing his inability to...
