How Donald Trump and Fox News Went Back to War

From Gabriel Sherman writing for New York Magazine:

When it comes to dealing with rogue states, Fox News has a firm editorial philosophy: You don’t negotiate. Roger Ailes is learning that the same logic applies to a rogue candidate. .....

It’s now harder to see an end to the Trump-Fox war soon. As I reported this week, Trump’s poll numbers remain strong and he’s building a robust campaign operation, which is a threat to Ailes’s political project: “Roger says Trump is unelectable. His goal here is to save the country,” a source close to Ailes told me.

I initially thought Trump was unelectable, but that he was playing a necessary and critical role in the campaign, as he called things as he saw them and attacked political correctness in the bargain.

Now, the way he’s playing this, I think he is moving into the electable column.

You can watch Newsmax TV for free.”

Used to go to Newsmax every day but then they started moving left or distorting rather than just reporting. No longer on my go to list for anything any more.

Hmm....Roger and Rush are good long time friends.....(and former business partners). I wonder how this is gonna play out.

I was just getting ready to post the same thing. He's back tomorrow so it'll be interesting to hear what if anything he'll say about this. Also I wonder since this is Mr. Ailes mission now, if this means Trump will no longer be welcomed on FOX.

The American Media is a domestic enemy. I used to exempt Foxnews from this......no more.

Fox News is nothing but social commentators. They rarely have any news. Fox News is as worthless as TMZ or The View or Oprah.

Considering I can’t watch 5 minutes of Fox News without hearing them bash Trump, even in their “news” program with that Homo freak Shepard Smith, it seems Ailes has been after Trump for quite some time.

Yep, they've been after Trump since he started moving up. At first they tried repeating and discussing on and on his remarks in his announcement speech, then they spent days and days on the remarks about McCain, and then they tried to destroy him at the debate.

All Fox has done is try to damage Trump, but none of their tactics have worked, and they've changed tactics and tried everything they could think of.

They haven't covered him fairly for a single day of the campaign.

All day on every show, it is Megyn Kelly and how she deserves an apology. I am so sick of that channel. I hope Trump blows them all away and he wins.

The 14th Amendment was put into place to assist ex slaves, not those coming here illegally and stealing our resources.

The current policy is INSANITY. Proof positive of this is the fact that no other developed country on the planet has this policy.
