Another think-piece Slate article.

Fox is Pro-Trump and yet Anti-Trump.

Maybe because Murdock has backed down on pushing Rubio and opposing Trump as hard as they have and they are still waiting for new marching orders?

Fox News DOES suck. However, Fox Business with Varney and Dobbs is terrific.

I think they've made it clear that they favor Trump by giving him more air time than all the other candidates combined.

The only reason some people think they are anti-Trump is because they are using Trump's Reality TV formula: a bunch of fake feuds to drum up controversy and attention.

By all rights, Kim Kardashian should be his VP. She developed his formula.

Why does Slate care anyway? Funny that leftist blogs and networks care more about the state of the Republican Party race than they do about their own DemoRat race.

Even the left sees’ it.

Fox is dead to me.

” It became clear that the main purpose of the debate was to launch sustained and brutal attacks on the frontrunner. Kelly’s attack on his business practices went on and on.”

I think it’s funny that so many self-proclaimed “conservatives” are now bashing FOX News, mostly for not cheerleading hard enough for Trump. I couldn’t care less what slate thinks about anything.

This 11th debate should have put the final nail in Cruzio’s coffin as far as a candidate, and I don’t see how Cruzers on FR could deny that. They have to face reality. This was an unmitigated disaster for Cruzio and Mario.

Fox doesn’t care. They’re just whores. Their bottom line is MONEY.

I hate to comment on anything Slate writes, but:

Fox dis themselves a disservice in hounding Trump about his off the record interview with the NYT.

When he told Kelly and Wallace that he had more respect for them than to make the tapes public, he was doing them a favor and giving them a hint that they should wake up.

Because if he violated the agreement that the meeting was off record and opened the door for others to do the same, public officials would refuse to grant off the record meeting to the news media. When asked to have off the record meetings, they would say something like “Off the record?” “Ha why would I meet with someone who will rat out on me in a few weeks?”

And as for his real estate school....it is interesting that the law firm suing him has as a senior partner a guy who spent time in jail for paying witnesses to lie in court.

Mix that with students who thought all they needed was a few lecture hours to be another millionaire.

It takes more than that.

Just imagine if Fox and or the GOP had this much passion for destroying Obama and the Democrats.

We might not be in the pickle we are today.

I said Trump should boycott this thing and that Megyn would bring out the videos (she had from the last debate that Trump skipped).

"Another think-piece Slate article."

Yeah, but they got the headline right.

It was a joke of an amateur event.

They effectively sought out personal animus, rather than asking about vision of the future.

The moderators lost total control of the debate. The whole thing turned into a shouting match. And of course hurling insults back and forth.

If you saw Bernard Goldberg and Dana PeRino on BOR’s post-”debate” you know exactly where Fox News stands on Donald Trump.

This can be easily answered by answering one question. How many videos and graphics did Fox present tonight contadicting any of the other candidates?

Agenda-driven, Faux News highly-paid “We Report, You Decide” propagandists can’t decide?

Unfair, unbalanced, unhinged.

(I haven’t watched in 4 years)
