Watching the opining of Big Time Lib on Special Report panel trying to get us to forget he carried water for the Demonrats, Libs and Obammmma for years...so Ailes gave him a home...great.
It’s all about the “New Republican Party”, according to Paul F. Ryan, and FOX likes it, I’m sure.
Therefore, FOX dragging dollar bills through a Lefty trailer park can pick up anything, and set it before us, in front of a FOX camera, knowing it’s one sure way to tick us off, run us off, and generally marginalize conservative patriots, eventually, right out of the debate.
The numbers still tuning in to Brett and Me-again Kelly are asking for it, and fully deserve David Gregory being thrust upon them. (Recall the trailer park, and the dollar bill.)
Who tolerates, more than once, having their leg peed on, by FOXNews? LOL!

Thanks for your post, I came into the living room and saw him on, thought my husband had changed the channel so I turned it off. Didn’t realize it was FOX, boy that puts things in a new light.
Geraldo is VERY pro Trump.
Including RINO Dana Perino, who never says anything negative about her old big-spending boss, George W.
Fox sucks. Get used to it.
So glad I stopped watching FAUX NEWS several years ago.
Bring back NET, and it’s old format of true Conservative programming, and it’ll blast Faux news back into the stone ages.
I'd take it in it's format as it was under Weyrich any day over FOX. I believe he started stepping on some huge GOP-E toes and lost funding. He was sounding the alarm about Trent Lott long before most persons knew about his antics.
I stopped watching FOX NEWS years ago and all TV Network news except when a major event is breaking. The last time was the terrorist attack in California. Even then I had to turn elsewhere. FOX News is a Liberal GOP-E Network on it's so called fair and balanced and ultra Liberal on it's Dem talking heads. Some fairness, some balance...NOT!
>> Bring back NET <<
Stop the presses! Breaking news:
Paul Weyrich is dead.
You’re absolutely right Hawthorn Weyrich, is dead. But that doesn’t mean that his idea of for a conservative alternative media programming to combat the main stream should die I mean I know no one can replace Weyrich but NET, was great back when it first launched it was real education, and landed a great to conservative movement.
"I'd take it in it's format as it was under Weyrich". I know he's dead. It was the format that made the earlier network. Under his tenure when it started up it was a Conservative Network. He lost funding and was removed as CEO/Chairman and lost control. That seemed to happen when GOP-E toes got stepped on. The new board changed name & format to what was called America's Voice".
Instead of Armstrong Williams show "The Right Side" he had to have Ellen Ratner as co-host. Many of the shows were done that way even Bob Beckel and Bill Press IIRC we on the new network. That's why I said under the Weyrich format. Liberal's views are well represented in the Network Media. Not one represents or reports fairly for the Grass Roots Conservative voice.
On N.E.T. you could call in and talk to the host, their guest no matter who it was even a congressman. {I got through many times calling in} and they had some great host. Major Garrett, Tom Jippin, Tom Fitton of Judical Watch, Bill Lind, Brad Kenna, John Lofton, Alan Keyes, Weyrich, Mike Schwartz, Janet Parshall, and many more had shows on it.
And thank you for your response...pretty amazing to see, right?
“I’d take it in it’s format as it was under Weyrich”
I used to watch NET a lot back in the days when it was only on the big dish. Enjoyed it very much, especially the morning show with Dan Mitchell and his wife. Also liked Major Garrett, Larry Klayman and Tom Fitton. Then, I tried never to miss Bob Novak’s long-form interview show once-per-week at night.
But let’s face it. NET’s production values were sorta amateurish, very little pizazz. Even worse, many of the shows were downright boring. Weyrich was a truly creative visionary, but he could never compete with a real TV pro like Roger Ailes.
So I guess what it came down to was that NET just couldn’t attract the kind of big advertising bucks needed to produce high-quality “cable ready” fare.
Too bad, but that’s just the way the world sometimes works.
Once Weyrich began stepping on establishment GOP toes by questioning backroom deals being made including his one time friend Trent Lott the takeover was being set in place. Remember how angry Weyrich was over Lott's deals?
When it became a threat it was taken over and the LIB's brought in. The new management thought they could keep the original viewers. They were wrong. Did the Libs really need one more media outlet? It would be like FR opening the site to the Liberals. That hasn't happened because it is a donor sponsored site and not quite the cost of TV networking and also because it is a private ran site with no B.O.D. establishment can influence even though we do have some devout GOP-E posters in here who would vote for Lindsey Graham rather than an Independent Conservative because he's a Republican.
N.E.T. was around several years before FR was even on the old site. N.E.T. gave groups like Judaical Watch who went after the Clinton's in civil court a voice. On the flip side America's Voice quality got so bad I had to finally turn it off. By that time if I wanted to hear Liberals all stations including FAUX News had plenty.
The Conservatives need a Conservative based network to get their voice & platform out uncensored by owners or board members with huge GOP-E sympathies. Did you know the late John Lofton was a Freeper? He was in here a while and some My Party Tis of Thee posters went after him calling him Noob, Troll, etc. Yeah they really knew Conservationism. Here's an example thread http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/1988689/posts His user name was NotChosenName. He also put his real name in his post.
For a while to be honest I thought FR was going to go down the tubes of Establishment Ran like N.E.T. because Party-Bot Apologist had taken over and Conservatism took back seat to party as it did in the 2000 election. Many good posters here from the very early days were banned for daring to question Bush policies in 2000. Many who questioned Bush policies history has now proven right including the expansion of powers Obama now enjoys.

There’s always one lefty on the panel. What’s your point?
My point is that 1) I was rather surprised to see him as a panelist particularly on SR and second) he not just some ordinary run of the mill generic lib but a royal a** of the left, again, on Fox...
And does one ALWAYS need a point to post? Quote it to me from the “Rule Book” of FR if it’s required, please....
Your third(?) point is a the best.
Juan Williams is on all the time. You gotta turn over a lot of rocks to find one worse than Juan.
Dick Gregory is on par with Kirsten Powers.
