Former Fox News host Eric Bolling didn’t hold back when speaking about the network on Monday, claiming that staffers there told him they are worried in the wake of the 2020 presidential election.
Bolling, now a Sinclair TV host, spoke to a throng of young Republicans at Turning Point USA’s annual Student Action Summit on Monday.

The former Fox News host went on to explain the rise of networks like Newsmax and OAN, both of which experienced a ratings surge in the aftermath of the 2020 election, as Fox News called first Arizona and then the presidency for Joe Biden. Bolling said some Fox News hosts are worried about a loss of viewers to conservative rivals.
“Here’s what happened guys, let’s be honest with you, I can talk about this, Donald Trump on November 3rd — Fox declared Biden the winner in Arizona. MAGA-world went ballistic, they said ‘I’m not watching Fox News,’ they switched over and they looked and they found Newsmax,” Bolling said.
“Fox lost about 40% of their audience. 40 percent. That’s a big number,” Bolling continued, a statement that sparked roaring applause from the audience of young conservatives.
“I have friends still there that say they are very, very nervous about it, they’re sucking wind on it and they don’t know how to turn it around,” Bolling said.

I knew something was up when I checked what was going on real quick before I left my desk at work, at the end of the day. They had called VA for Plugs with 1% of the precincts reporting.
“They don’t know how to turn it around”
Yes they do. They have to face their audience like in an intervention, saying ‘we are on the side of the US Constitution. We had a transgression, influenced by the owners of Fox. They must do it now, this week, before Trump, the true winner of this Election is declared, which he will be, and they need to do this way before Trump is inaugurated, after which there is no return. None.
That is the only way out of this for them. They chose sides. Erroneously. Against the constitution.
They are fully aware of that. Anything they have done since declaring Arizona for Biden has been to promote a Biden presidency and obstruct the true winner, against the law.
Every pundit will be tainted. Every opinion host will never work anywhere but fox which will fold.
They are so unwise it is unfathomable
I have yet to feel the need to watch a news story, but I know that day will come. I will at least visit news nation, though I doubt they will be any better. I have downloaded Newsmax, but am enjoying a news-free environment for the time being. And I am thanking the Good Lord for FR, which has never let me down.
I’ve discovered so many new new sources from FR post election. FR is #1 in my book. On election day, it was only FR and War Room Pandemic for me.
Whomever hired the communist Chinese agent Arnon Mishkin is responsible for the election theft.
That person KNEW the election was rigged. That person also single-handedly destroyed Fox News forever. Was it George Soros?
“No sympathy” is understatement. I hope those bastards who stabbed Trump and all of us in the back die a miserable death.
“Be afraid, be very afraid.”
One day the Trump family will start a MAGA Network.
It’s like the NFL, the NBA, the MLB, the NYT, the WaPo, etc wanting to “turn it around.” They all know how to do it, but won’t.
Trash
Not very, very, nervous about joining the democrat propaganda machine, though, are they?
Anyone with an average IQ knew Fox only had the ratings they did was because they bucked the tide and at least hinted at the truth when they couldn’t come out and say it.
Lie down with the media dog liars, get up with media dog ratings.
Asa business decision they must be getting paid by someone. It would be someone other than viewers. They just signed Laura to a $10 mil contract. Last week. That speaks.
Fire Chris Wallace would be a start, then tell Donna Brazile to hit the bricks.
Fox who?
They decided not to fight with us.
Turn around? The Titanic could only sink once.
I’m ready for it.
I hope it’s after they start the MAGA Party.
Well, Laura just signed a new contract and I wish her ratings continue to go downward.
Those who are nervous over there and cow-tow to the powers that be deserve what they get.
Eff Fox!
