I am DONE with Fox News!

Posted on 11/07/2018 5:47:38 AM PST by Saveourcountry

Fox news offered the WORST election coverage EVER! With sheer delight they announced WHILE PEOPLE WERE STILL VOTING in the west that the house was going to be won by the Democrats.

To me it seemed like a calculated effort to suppress the vote to make sure that there would be divided government.

I'm sure they calculated that ratings would increase with the shenanagans that the democrats will pull in the next two years. Well, they will not increase ratings in my house. I will never watch them again. They make me sick. Also with the smiling idiot that kept saying how "pleased" he was with this outcome. I'm done. Deleted them from my channels.

Four hour difference at least in poll closing times east to west.
What should they do, not report the news?

About a year ago it hit me that Trump’s election was almost certainly divine intervention and the Kavanaugh thing sealed that deal.

The CHURCH has not truly humbled itself repented. On the whole, it has done lip service to GOD. The church prays, but has it turned from its wicked ways? If AMERICA fails, it will be because of the CHURCH.

BELIEVERS will be brought to their knees one way or another, even if it is through persecution. GOD will have HIS WAY with AMERICA. HE will not stand for fence-sitters and double-mindedness. Why is AMERICA exempt from HIS anger?

I watched FOX. It was awful. That stupid yellow line with the matching yellow dress. I could not believe they called the house so early.No numbers or facts just a big check mark. That guy Chris was awful. And they kept showing a room with people at computers eating.

I will be watching less of FOX. Maybe just Hannity and listening to Sean and Rush on the radio. Disappointed. Not surprised after they criticized Sean for 2 min at rally
They forgot Sean got Trump on the network before the rally in MO.

Calling a win for a specific candidate is different than calling a win for entire house when states are still voting.

Stirewalt pissed me off, but them announcing the house while voting was still going on was the last straw.

Like you I tried to watch the business channel
(I could happily have Varney or Dobbs on in the background all night)
but there was neil (who has become I'm not sure what)

I also like Graham Ledger, but settled with (get this) CBS, who was ok.

I voted at 6:30 in the morning, went to work, came home and took the dog out for a while, had dinner, watched Casablanca on TCM and went to bed.

I’m no good at being noble, but it doesn’t take much to see that the problems of a man and his dog don’t amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world.... but not once did I feel compelled to turn on any election coverage.

Seriously! You’d think FNC would be pleased that Hannity and Pirro were considered important enough figures to be introduced by the President. It’s not like either of them need to maintain the illusion of impartiality - they’re not newscasters. There’s no explanation for Fox throwing a hissy fit other than that the people in charge are just more butt-hurt, anti-American leftist members of the evil party, who realize they can scam the good part out of the country out of good money by pretending to be “fair and balanced.”

A pox on them.

You are correct. But projecting winners in races not closed
is what they are doing. For those that keep tabs on turn out,
past history, etc calling/projecting a race result isn’t that hard.

I personally don’t think it creates winners or losers. Yours may
differ as is your right.

FOX NEW IS NOT YOUR FRIEND. Go to One America News and dump Faux News. OAN IS what Faux News pretends to be.

When Ailes left so did Fox News now Murdoch 2 Liberal Sons run it Fox News is a separate entity of Fox Inc which is for sale to Disney. As a Pension Trustee we are fed a lot of info an the day that Ailes left we were told Fox News would change and w sold our holdings in Fox...Rupert has a new wife and cant be bothered by the news portion of his empire. However if DJT made a call maybe just maybe? In the meantime One America News is far more truthful....

I caught that too and then them panning over their “decision desk” and praising their efforts. I was pissed too that they were already calling the house. Other networks were far more reluctant to do so than Fox. And having Karl Rove on there. It made me think FNC wanted the Dems to take the house.

I agree, and here in Canada, Fox News is all I got! :)

(don’t get Fox Business)

I could never give up Tucker Hannity and Ingraham.

FOXNews should quit pretending their liberals are objective enough to fool conservatives.

On election night fox conservatives should be in charge of the election desks.

WE are in complete agreement.
