You forget the bitter divorce FNC has with Drudge over his show. Ailes got mad over Drudge bringing his style of reporting to the airwaves.

I also note that Fox has hired droves of what FReepers used to consider the most liberal of reporters. I'm losing a lot of trust in their reporting and judgement with each passing day.

Oh trust me, I watch FOX News with a jaded eye these days too, but I just feel that this has more to do with Fox's rep as a Right Wing Organization than with the fued with Drudge.

That is not to say you are wrong, on the contrary, thier falling out with D probably has them very leery of running with this until it is fully vetted and proven. I am just of the opinion that they are more concerned with tarnishing thier reputation than with assisting or getting an assist from D.

Surely you can name those liberal reporters.

There's a reason FOXNEWS is number one: it is fair, and balanced, and gives more information than any of the other cable news channels.

I suspect you've got a bone to pick with somebody like Geraldo or Greta, yet their shows currently are straight down the middle. (Geraldo doesn't even do politics any longer; he's more Hollywood.)

Ailes got mad because Drudge showed this picture on the air:

Ailes fired him on the spot.

PS: None of these GOPers who claim to be pro-life really are pro-life; they just tell you that to get elected.
