Fox Pulled the Plug on Trump. Now the Admin Can Pull the Guests. Try Real America’s Voice (RAV), Newsmax, or OAN

...On Friday, President Trump banned CNN, MS NOW and Politico from the White House, saying they report “fake news” and “shouldn’t be able to constantly write or report FICTION and LIES.”...

...Two days later, a Fox News executive shut off the president’s cameras.

Not CNN. Not a committee in New York. Bryan Boughton, Fox News Washington bureau chief, chairs the White House television pool.

On Sunday, he told subscribers that “effective today, the TV pool will not be covering events designated as pool coverage of the President.”

Then the line that gives the game away: “All other TV pool coverage will continue as normal, including Congress, VIPs, and selected events in Washington and around the country.”

Read it twice. The cameras still roll for Congress. They still roll for VIPs. One man in America gets blacked out, and he — not Mr. Boughton — is the one the voters elected....

That is not standing on principle. That is shooting at a target.

Nor was Fox a bystander. When the White House pulled CNN from the rotation, the slot passed to the next network in line: Fox, with the crew, the truck and the bureau three blocks away. Mr. Boughton slammed the door: “There will be no replacement pool put in place.”

Then, in solidarity with the fake news, Fox News Media signed a joint statement with ABC, CBS, NBC and CNN declaring that “no administration should restrict a news organization because it objects to its reporting.”

Mr. Boughton did not make that stab-in-the-back call. It came from the top: CEO Suzanne Scott or higher.

News flash: A network that sells itself to conservatives has blacked out a Republican president and put out a press release about it, arm in arm with CNN. Fox is the more dangerous of the two, because it pretends to wear our colors.

Its CEO Suzanne Scott keeps removing the people most willing to honestly cover the MAGA agenda. Lou Dobbs was canceled in February 2021. Tucker Carlson was out in April 2023.

Maria Bartiromo was gone this month, after she passed her producers’ July 15 text from Fox Business programming up the chain: “We don’t want to promote it or push to the speech at all. We don’t want to do 2020 election segments at all Thurs or Friday.”

The speech was the president’s prime-time address on election security. Fox ordered its own fake newsroom not to discuss it.

Japan PM Takaichi Tells Press “GET OUT!” During Trump Meeting — Trump’s Instant Response Goes Viral

Hilarious moment as Japan PM Sanae Takaichi just told the Fake News, GET OUT OF THE ROOM

TAKAICHI: “I’d like to cover a lot of agenda items [with Trump]. Why don’t we ask the press to leave the room?”

TRUMP: “Well, YOU HEARD HER!”

” A network that sells itself to conservatives has blacked out a Republican “

Any true conservative was not buying what the Fox network was selling after the 2016 election. The debate ambush by Megyn Kelly and Bret Baer was enlightening to anyone paying attention.

Then when Fox “called” the election for Biden (thanks, Bill Hemmer, Bret Baer, Arnon Mishkin!), that was the straw that broke the camel’s back.

I dropped FOX/FNC about a dozen years ago, couldn’t stand that leftist retard Juan Williams pushed in my face morning, noon and night. There is 10x10x10 more info out there than we could possibly consume anyway.

The impending death of the MSM cannot happen fast enough.

You folks are aware this is election season. How many leftists out there think Trump and Fox are joined at the hip? Answer: look at all the former ‘friends’ he’s taken swipes at. Then look at the ones he’s allowed back into the fold.

He’s showing the left his evenhandedness for lack of a better word. Fox will get over it and the independents now have proof he’s not ‘one of them’.

Now FOX7News can fully display their leftist leanings as they try to outdo the other Enemedia propagandists in the People’s Socialist Kakistocracy of Austin.

I turned off Fox election night 2020 and haven’t been back since. The cord was cut. I can’t watch them even if I wanted to.

I pulled the plug on Fox News. When they fired Maria, I fired them. I won’t even watch Gutfield any longer.

Maybe President Trump should allow Iran to have one nuke, on condition that they use it on DC.

Really dumb fight to have right before the midterms. Sigh. Junior high-schoolers advising this president.
