Fox Hit Job on Trump
My Fetid Mind | August 6th, 2015 | Mariner

Posted on 08/06/2015 9:39:33 PM PDT by Mariner

Watching the debate tonight I noticed several thing that demonstrated great bias:

1. Opened with hit #1, who will not pledge to support the nominee? They KNEW only Trump.

2. Trump calling Rosie names on twitter and are you a misogynist?

3. Even whn in Trump's sweet spot of immigration: PROVE Mexican govt is sending their criminals.

All in the first 20mins.

And never was a single question framed in a way that allowed him to shine.

I was wondering why commie soetoro told useful idiots to watch the repub debate, now I know why. Soetoro was tipped off that foxholes were going hard to take out Trump and hard question a few of the others. Plain as day.

Who can prove that Rosie is a female, or a human, for that matter?

Trump is winning big on two different polls post-debate. So maybe it won’t hurt him.

The mexican sending its criminals is same as castro sending his criminals in Muriel boat lift with jimmy carter.

"So maybe it won’t hurt him"

The solidarity of sympathy.

It was an AMBUSH.

Agreed. Fox didn’t handle the debates well. They were not fair and balanced. Most sites folks are disappointed by fox. They just wanted to ask “gotcha” questions.

But Trump shoved it right back in their faces by instantly raising his hand. No hesitation whatsoever.

"Trump is Toast"

Maybe always was, but you didn't perceive bias?

My first impression was that the questions to Trump were more personal, rather than policy. Hannity had him on later, and seemed like Hannity thought something odd was happening.

I never liked Megyn Kelly. I always thought she was overrated. But tonight was a disgrace. She is taking a beating on twitter and her facebook page. Well deserved.

That was not a debate ...

Debates are when everyone gets to answer the same question and attempt to persuade the audience of their position.

This was a gotcha attempt by the pseudo biased Faux News ... I do believe I may join liberals in calling it that from now on.

I’ve truly enjoyed Trump’s candidacy, but those were all legitimate questions, and Trump couldn’t answer them.

It wasn’t a hit job, just revealing. Trump has been great about bringing issues into the public discourse, but he has few answers and carries a lot of baggage.

Campaigns and debates show weak spots, and that’s what happened tonight.

Rosie is from the planet Zod. They require all inhabitants to walk around with a hot poker up their backside.

The media tried to destroy Trump in the debate

And the media will keep trying to destroy Trump

Why don't people see that every reporter ,every journalist , every media person IS a marxist political activist posing as a journalist. The media will try to destroy any politician that is a threat to socialism.

Socialism/marxism is their religion

The FOX “News” Moderators should be ASHAMED
of themselves. After keeping Cruz and Trump
from the news for months, their attacks continued,
and continued, and continued.

Disgusting, thou art Chris Wallace.
