Why is Fox trying to rehabilitate Chris Wallace? Because they are stuck with a multi-year $7m a year contract.

Chris Wallace's annual salary is $7 million. His current contract was signed in September 2017 and runs several years beyond the 2020 election according to reports at the time the deal was announced.

Sometimes it’s better to get rid of sunk costs. Wallace will do so much damage to the credibility of Foxnews with conservatives if he’s allowed to work the rest of his contract. I would just force him to not work while he’s collecting paychecks. He will die without the spotlight, or he will allow them to break the contract with him.

They’re not stuck with the guy, they LOVE him.

Wallace HATES trump and would do everything possible to wreck him.

The board of Fox news HATES trump, and would do everything possible to wreck him.

They are absolutely on the same page. They are thrilled with his horrifically biased performance, they knew it was coming.

You could switch to One America News, but don’t hope for any change on Fox

Two techniques that work for me. I use them whenever we are watching Fox News:

1. Never ever ever watch Fox News Sunday.

2. On our Samsung TV the mute button is very handy. I call ir the Chris Wallace button. It is used whenever this idiot pops up on Fox and I’m too lazy to change the channel.

And also, the article says Wallace identifies as a Republican despite being registered as a a Democrat. Give a break. Nobody believes that.

I saw him on Fox news yesterday and he said that “I will have to be tested since I was on that stage with them.”

As if we’re supposed to feel sorry for him.

And liberals still hate FNC. Go figure.

Yes, it doesn't usually work to appease tyrants (such as the abominably stupid American TV audience).

However, I don’t think this will happen as those who are running Foxnews are leftists. They are happy to continue to damage the brand with conservatives. Instead of being the only choice with conservatives and go slightly left to collect everybody in the middle, they’d rather compete with all the other leftist outlets for the far left! Just like Hollywood and almost all pro sports are doing right now. Nuts!

Report: Fox News Top Brass “Toasted” Chris Wallace’s Debate Performance With Champagne:

“According to a New York Times article, the top brass at Fox News, Lachlan Murdoch (son of Rupert) and Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott were so pleased with Wallace, they actually toasted him with champagne after his debate spectacle.”

If there were any doubt as to how dishonest he is it has now been destroyed in 30 seconds by asking this question.

He’s finished. It was disgraceful. I will not watch anything he is a part of.

I find Shephard Smith to be far more palatable than this old queen, and that’s saying A LOT!

I saw him on Fox news yesterday and he said that “I will have to be tested since I was on that stage with them.”

I'm hoping the test will include a prostate exam and a colonoscopy.

Please refresh my memory.

Didn’t FN compensate Bill O’Reilly with double-digit millions when they let him go?

It was so obvious that even Trump said something like “I guess I’m debating two people.”

Still doesn’t beat the best line, when Biden was listing things, he said, “and number two...”

Trump interjected, “No, you’re number two.” LOL!

Wallace is only despised by Trump supporters. The liberals who run FNC couldn’t care less what we think.

Smarmy Wallace was trashed by everybody for his terrible debate performance, especially by the far left who were incensed he totally control and let Trump dominate. Why do you think the far left crazies were shrieking for the debates to be stopped after the first debate?

Fox owes reparations to the America people for allowing this leftist propagandist air time.

Well, I guess that explains why he was all over Fox yesterday. Turned the channel whenever he came on. There’s nothing I want to hear from him. Smarmy Chris. Couldn’t stand him before the debate; can’t abide him now.

His Sunday show has terrible ratings anyway. Both Mark Levin and Judge Jeanine have better ratings for their Sunday shows than Slimy Wallace does.

The left crazies reflexively criticized Wallace because he works at FNC. They don’t actually watch FNC. If they did they would see it’s full of Democrats and main line GOP types like Hannity now.
