Do you think Trump’s offensive remarks were just about Rosie O’Donnell?
Did you listen to the debate?
Wake Up!
That's supposed to be funny? Or, is it just a diversion.
Either way, your response is no different than Trump's answer... Except he admitted that he has treated other women in the same callous way.
You can have him. I'm looking for dignified conservatism, not another egotistical narcissist.
Think up.
Just what comments are those?
He’s right. Across the board the moderators were dreadful. They tried so hard to be the show. The candidates were their props.
Answer: they have a "Reality TV" mentality. They think the real world is like reality TV. Satan has them by the brain. They do not think for themselves. They just want to be entertained. It is the VERY DEFINITION of "Amusement." Not thinking.
Donald Trump AMUSES idiots.
The moderators were the story. It was painful watching them self destruct. You’re not supposed to notice them. They were the stupid relative who keeps jumping in front of the video camera. It was all about them. I know more now about voting in the journalist of the year pageant than the presidency. No delving into isis, baby parts, kurds, budget, Iran nukes, labor participation, slow economy, etc. All was personal attack selfies from the mods.
She is an actress and no thing more. Yesterday she was reading the script she was given, just like every other day.
Ding Ding Ding!
You could tell that for a week leading up to it.
“I want to see what BOR has to say.”
Upon whose knee do you think Kelly learned her technique? Fox News has been sliding into the same murky territory that maintstream Republicans have for awhile now.
The lesson for Americans is this: The news media is not our friend. They have become totally enamored with themselves and their power to sway public opinion. Independent reporters and journalists need to step up now and get at the truth just like they have with Planned Parenthood.
I was once a Fox News junkie. However, in the past few years I have noticed the shift in their policies and have watched less and less. Now, I wouldn’t trust them enough to believe anything they report, along with the rest of the news media. Things sure are going to get tricky as far as getting at the truth from here on.
Agree. I have been going through the same process.
I refused to watch the debates last night, because they are way premature and I was concerned that the disaster that occurred would occur.
Fox is out to make the news, not report it.
These debates are useless so early in the game.
“You should never assume you know what others think as doing so reveals you have no idea what you are talking about.”
We all make assumptions about other people’s motives based on the evidence at hand. It took me two seconds to find examples in your own comments where you did the same. Here’s an example:
“Hume also works for Murdoch.
But I do believe the entire lot is in the tank for Bush”
Here’s another one:
“’Trump has “evolved” on single payer. What a liar.’
Big time.”
So, yes, I made an assumption on what you think based on your comments. No apologies.
You are free to call it whining if you like, but his criticisms of unfair treatment are valid, whether they came post debate or not.
I have not heard a single person say that was a good debate or defend the moderators disgusting behavior.
Not a single one.
That is all she really cares about.
Are you kidding me? She doesn’t have a humble bone in her entire body. She will only mention the praise she received (if any actually exists after that horrible performance)
You and the news media are on the same side against Trump
the media has been the main problem for the last 100 years in America
the media is the enemy of prosperity and freedom(capitalism) and individual rights.
99% of the problems in this country and that I’ve had personally can be traced back to the media. I don’t think this is much different from many as the media works to keep the individual small, weak, poor and dependent on government
“Fox could have shown the world how to facilitate a debate and set the standard for all the networks, but they chose the low road and behaved as bad as Candy Crowley.”
DING! DING! DING! WE HAVE A WINNER!
I think that is what we were all hoping for. With Fox, we thought we would not be having the lamestream media choosing our candidate.
Fox tried to join those self-styled king makers, and I think (hope) they flopped.
“However, ratings do talk, and that’s where we come in. Fox has shown its true corporatist, GOPe colors tonite more than ever, and even though all of Fox need not be banned, the Kelly File and Chris Wallace’s Fox News Sunday should be. A targeted attack is in order.”
I’ve tried watching Newsmax, and have not found actual news, but newslike talking head programs. I wonder if there is any hope for them as an alternative.
