All that fake poll could accomplish was to waste a news cycle at Fox, and allow these upstart conservative news orgs to again stake out the true narrative, and in that same cycle, the real news that the 'whistleblower' comes from Biden's camp.

One might even think that Fox had held that poll for just. that. purpose. to obscure the really bad Biden disclosure.

One of these orgs is going to break out in 2020 and outflank Fox (and the now Drudge-less, toothless Drudgereport) to the center-right.

agree,that and the Arab oil embargo which hurt the economy-no internet then to counter that coup and Nixon, like Trump was hated befor and like Trump sometimes played into their hands with poor PR moves

The Fox poll is still troubling because even if you subtract out 14 Dems it is still 37% for impeachment etc which is a reflection of advertising-advertising pays and that is what this is about, 100 million dollars of advertising will not get the negative play this will with the willing media-Trump needs a partial China deal to keep the economy going

Trump praised Fox News hosts at the rally and left Shannon out.

She’s sometimes a pretty stealth never Trumper but doesnt fool the President

I quit watching Shannon because of Chris Stirewalt.

I hang up on them at least once a week. When I do answer, I give all false info to skew their lousy polling.

It isn’t just Ryan. Check out the rest if the board and upper management of the new company. Deep Staters, unipartiers, Never Trumpers.

Wish some journo would do an exposé on what happened to News Corp and why.

It’s that pig Stirewalt. They really should shit can him. Unless they are going to implode the entire network which seems like a real possibility. Notice Trump named every Fox personality that hasn’t lost their damn mind. Notice he didn’t mention Bret Baer.

Dana has pointed out repeatedly that Stirewalt “IS” Fox polling. They introduce the fat pig that way.

Last night on Special Report, the idiot reporter admitted Fox’s bias when he proudly bragged that the number of respondents favoring impeachment had gone up from an earlier poll which HAD THE SAME 49 PERCENT DEMOCRATS IN IT.

Fox news polls have always been highly skewed to the left, just like FOX radio news.

Almost daily, Fox News is shooting themselves in the foot. For a person like me, it has been difficult to watch this happen to something I trusted. I don’t watch anymore because visually, there are far more Democrats on my TV screen than Republicans. If I wanted to see Democrats, I would tune in CNN, I wouldn’t need Fox. Alas, I now turn to OAN only.

There also were many “pocketbook issues” going on, IIRC. Arab Embargo, inflation.

I recall those days. What Nixon was accused of is essentially choir boy practice compared to what the rats are getting by with today. And yes, the news hammered him to death.

The result was the rats gaining much power over our country that helped enable our cultural change.

Nixon’s war efforts led to a negotiated settlement in Vietnam where we won militarily. Once these asshats got rid of Nixon they defunded the South enabling the North to overrun them. In the meantime the lefties were joyed that we lost our first war, when in reality it was lost politically, not militarily.

In the meantime the rats gave us Roe Vs Wade.

And we go on and on with their victories, especially due to fake news of the era.

You are so correct about the internet media we have now. Just think that if the truth got out back in the 60’s how much better our country would be today.

I would like Sean Hannity better if he’d just shut up and let his guests speak...

Stirewalt grew up as a W. Virginia Democrat. He’s emblematic of the new group now running things in the post-Ailes FNC that’s drifting ever leftward.

I watch Fox Biz during the day and Lou, Tucker & Hannity at night. Even Special Report has become unacceptably polluted.
