FoxNews is a NY-centric operation.

Plus NY is about half of the US COVID problem.

Disney bought Fox entertainment divisions -- NOT Fox News.

It's the Murdoch kids that are running Fox News into the ground.

I would assume because it is the largest concentration of cases in the country, in the largest city in the country, and a lot of these news networks are based there.

Because Fox is the big gorilla on the block, and remains to have many useful segments in our favor. Don’t be a schmuck!

Fox has been heading in the wrong direction ever since Rupert turned it over to the kids. No schmuckism involved.

Why are you watching it? Make the ratings drop, they’ll show something else. Really in this modern world there’s simple no reason to watch ANY of the “news” networks. They’ve never been informative, they’ve always been driven by ratings, and they all suck. There’s a whole bunch of amazing music documentaries free on Amazon Prime. Watch those instead.

“ Disney owns 21st Century Fox. Not Fox News.”

Phooey. I did like ‘out of the shadows’ but I believe they misinformed

Anyway Fox has been unreliable more so lately. That awful Paul Ryan is on the job.

From BI sept 2019

Former Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin was the speaker of the House for the first two years of the Trump administration, but he believes it is his new job as a board member of Fox Corporation that will finally allow him to “do something” about President Donald Trump, according to a new report in Vanity Fair.

Ryan, who joined the Fox Corporation board in March, is now said to be one of the most important voices pushing Fox CEO Lachlan Murdoch to transition Fox News and pivot away from Trump, according to Vanity Fair.

So when the Dems dump Biden, their media arm, which includes Fox News, can have Cuomo ready to roll. He’s already the suburban women’s choice with his daily emotional whinings and outbursts.

“Plus NY is about half of the US COVID problem.”

You’re on the scent. Cuomo has been failing the state for almost the entire time the C-19 has been in the US. His decisions have cost the state the most cases, the most deaths, the stupidest suggestions, his misuse of the federal hospital ship (funds) he just had to have, (and didn’t help anyway), and his people literally running out of the state to escape this screwup by him and his people that have states as far south as Florida and north as Maine turning them around when they hit the border or go into forced quarantine, is not what I would call a clean resume for a person running for dog catcher, let alone the upper two offices. They are hammering him to the billboard.

Errrr wrong. Disney owns and comtrols Fox Entertainment. Fox New and vuisness is not owned by Disney at all. The problem with Fox news is Murdoch gave control to his 2 idiot sons. One of their brilliant ideas was to put Paul Ryan on as an adviser. Noticed that ‘Fair and Balenced’ and ‘We report you decide’ disappeared as their slogans. Fox cant be trusted like the rest. OAN is you best bet, but they seriously lack personality. Great reporting, boring to watch.

Third correction. I am aware. I stated so twice. Let it go.

Arkansas has the “Clintons”, Texas has the “Bushs”, Massachusetts HAD the Kennedys, New York has the Cuomos.

Power begets power until the PEOPLE end the cycle.

Anecdote:

Years ago I used to go to Albany (capitol of NY, for those of you in “flyover” country) for the annual “Small Business Day”.

Mario Cuomo (governor at the time) spoke at lunch from the podium, blah, blah, blah, surrounded by armed State Troopers.

Everyone was milling around in the lobby when Cuomo breezed through with his entourage of State Troopers, too good to talk to we little people.

The next year it was George Pataki. At the end, as I was leaving, I came across Pataki in the lobby talking to reporters, answering questions from the crowd of people SURROUNDING him. As I walked by I could have reached out and touched him.

The previous year it felt like a gathering in the Soviet Union or Nazi Germany with the Gestapo.

F the Cuomos. ALL OF THEM!

Fox jumped shark years ago. Fox has a large contingent of #NeverTrump in the organization. If I wanted to see daily Cuomo,I would go to the other outlets that are pure liberalism 24/7. Fox tries to be some “balanced” network. They will NEVER attract one liberal but they think pandering to the DNC and putting fake Republicans on there is balancing.

FOX is in New NYC.
Apparently, NYC is the center of the universe.

God forbid that Cuomo is a candidate to replace Biden.
He wants $500 million to support his sanctuary city demanding the taxpayer pay the bills for his mistakes. He demanded New York be a sanctuary state but never medically vetted illegals who brought in Covid 19 into New York. Now the American Taxpayer must foot the bill for his stupidity.
Never get my vote.

You must remember that New York City is the center of the Universe. Any place other than NYC is irrelevant.

From what I am hearing many people in NY are not interested in what he has to say either
