Fake News from Neil Cavuto
American Thinker.com ^ | February 22, 2020 | Daniel John Sobieski

Anti-Trump Fox News analyst Neil Cavuto, who often demonstrates the difference between being glib and being articulate, says he doesn’t work for Donald Trump. Cavuto took umbrage at Trump’s reaction to an A.B. Stoddard interview with Cavuto in which she falsely stated, in defending Michael Bloomberg’s Hindenburgesque Nevada debate performance, that Trump consistently lost his 2016 debates with “cringewortthy” and “disastrous” performances. None of what she said was accurate, Cavuto didn’t call her on it, later agreeing with her, and when Trump called both on it during his Colorado rally, Cavuto got righteously indignant in a statement what could have been an MSNBC audition tape, about Trump stating the truth and showing us the man behind the Fox Business curtain:

Fox News’s Neil Cavuto and a contributor to his show found themselves the subjects of a lengthy tirade by President Donald Trump at his rally in Colorado Thursday night. For roughly ten minutes, Trump went on about his performances in the 2016 debates, holding up papers with polls showing how well he did in the debates, and taking the occasional shot at Cavuto and the contributor, A.B. Stoddard of RealClearPolitics…

Earlier in the day while discussing Mike Bloomberg’s dreadful performance in the Democratic debate Wednesday night, Stoddard mentioned Trump’s poor showings in the 2016 debates.

“I think that Donald Trump had disastrous debate performances,” Stoddard said. “Many answers were so cringeworthy you just couldn’t even believe he was still standing on the stage, and he’s president.”

A short time later, Trump posted a tweet calling Stoddard a Trump-hater, and claiming to have won every debate in 2016 from beginning to end. Cavuto earned his spot in Trump’s diatribe by correcting the president at the end of his show.

Cavuto is the weakest link at Fox News, now that Shep Smith is gone.

I disagree, in that he generally gives decent coverage to business issues. In addition, some of the "fair and balanced" but always tilted left commentators are far worse than Cavuto. A prime example would be Juan Williams; less dramatically bad is Geraldo; and there's a bunch of striving young commentators who are pretty hopelessly Democrat in their outlook.

He’s right, he doesn’t work for Donald Trump. He works for Paul Ryan.

I still think A.B. Stoddard is Bill Kristol in drag. Has anyone ever seen them in the same room together?

A.B. and Cavuto should are gold metalists in the smug olympics. Cavuto ends most sentences with, right?

They are people from the Big Apple, born and raised. I have noticed how many news people are from the same area. It clouds their view of reality. I choose various sources for my information gathering and even question those sources. I always thought Cavuto was a pompous windbag even before Trump came to politics.

The only FoxNews programs I watch at all......The Five and Tucker. And if the Five has Brazile or anybody else who constantly just spouts Leftist talking points, I turn off the Five, too.

I respect him for the health issues he has faced and beaten during his life. However I do not give him a free pass because of those issues.

Even worse was Trish Regan’s rebuke of POTUS remarks about Cavuto, sad.

We Decide What to Report so That You Can Decide. No retorts allowed to PROPAGANDA lite. (Haven’t watched in 8 years. Chuck Kraut’s analysis of one of the Romney /PUKE Obama debates did it for me)

I would say that A.B. Stoddard is probably also in the Team Trump doghouse. It was not my recollection that whatever Donald Trump, as candidate, said on the debate stage was in any way “cringworthy” or “disastrous”. Calling out BS and turning around an ad hominem attack may look rude and buffoonish to some, but it is a recognized debate tactic.

Here is to more and even more incisive retorts in debate where they appear. Just stay within the range of plausibility.

“Oh. And A.B.Stoddered is a skag”.

I don’t know what “skag” means but I agree. She’s a nasty one.

Neil Cavuto is the round mound of unsound and unfounded analysis.
