Fox News Buries Cruz Iowa Victory with Rubio, Clinton Coverage
February 2, 2016 | Ralph Mitchell

Posted on 02/01/2016 9:50:22 PM PST by mitchell001

Coverage of the Ted Cruz Iowa Victory is being minimized by Fox News with excessive coverage of Rubio and Clinton. This is based on the evidence of those viewing.

because in the big scheme of things, it really doesn’t matter. If cruz couldn’t win iowa then he had major major problems.

I noticed thaty- they couldn’t even find it in themselves to allow Cruz to have his evening- Becoming very disgusted with Fox news lately!

If Trump doesn’t win, he should start a competing conservative news network!

May be Cruz should skip the next Fox News debate and ask Palin for the endorsement.

I agree. Every time I turn up the sound, it is about Rubio. Megyn just quoted him like he was Atticus Finch and she was about to cry. Didn’t everyone know he would be third? He did do better than I thought he would, but Cruz won.

“If Trump doesn’t win, he should start a competing conservative news network!”

The only problem is that there is nothing conservative about Trump. But, by all means.

I had a strange thought about the left, Democrats know that Hillary & Bernie have no chance with all the baggage of the past 8 years of Obama against the outsider candidates. So they are going to vote for the least harmful Republican to keep the political elite status quo in power. Rubio is that candidate. Perspiration Candidate is woefully unprepared and rates with Ryan, McConnell, Boehner et all. Democrats also know that Conservatives won’t hold their nose this time and vote for Rubio. So there would be a chance for Hillary or Bernie.

Political elite class is strategizing their power play.

They don’t like Cruz. Never have. Think they are made he won after they had said everything was against him

We started hearing about the rise of Rubio after the last debate... I thought that it was all hype. But I think the establishment has found their candidate... Mr. Amnesty. The lines are being drawn. It is a three way race from here.

Not really! Fox News showed 32 minutes of Ted Cruz’s excellent & inspiring victory speech, and only cut away at the very end to show some of Bernie Sanders speech & Hillary speech. BTW in Hillary speech, did anyone notice Bubba Bill Clinton’s facial expressions behind Hillary? Bubba looks like he is coming down with dementia, and perhaps advanced dementia, as his jaw sagged forward & droopy face. Or it could be STD’s finally catching up with him.

Megyn must’ve mentioned how great Rubio’s speech was about a dozen times. She almost choked up about it.

..third flippin place and they treated it like he won a
landslide. From the first debate I picked up on the fact that Rubio was the GOPe’s Plan B—because Jeb could not survive...

Rubio did do a lot better than expected. It was a Lazarus-like performance involving a surge from the low teens to the low 20’s. I have to hand it to him - he’s a cannier campaigner than everyone thought he was. While he did benefit from some withdrawals - Kasich, Christie and Bush also had a shot at those votes, yet fell on their faces.
