Bitter Truce Fox News Ailes FURIOUS at NR's Lowry for Forcing Fox to Cede Moral High Ground to Trump

Ailes is mad at Lowry because this move means, in the ongoing war between Fox News and Trump, Fox News has now "given up the moral high ground." Essentially, Ailes understands, that means his network looks like the unfair aggressor that Trump has accused it of being -rather than a neutral arbiter of the news - all while Trump continues soaring in the 2016 GOP primary polls.
But on Wednesday evening, Lowry appearing on Kelly's program compromised Fox's position in the war by veering down a vulgar path in his attack on Trump. Even Kelly, who also dislikes Trump, clearly was shocked at what Lowry said live on air, reacting "What did you just say? You can't say that!"
Fox has not officially announced that they have reprimanded Lowry, and there are no media reports of that at this time.

Which is why illegal immigration has been basically a perfect crime for both parties. The dims get the votes, the repubs get people to slaughter chickens and change hotel bedsheets. A win-win.

Apparently it was a big rumor, and Brit was so proud of the rumor that at his own retirement party, he told the story of how FOX handlers came to him and said “we have to tamp this rumor down”. Brit says he told them, “Well, fine, but do you have to do it tonight?” LOL!!

LOL.
YES! You're right!
Trump is a genius!
I despise Megyn Kelly.
Lowry has been planning and plotting to get with Trump since this embarrassment way back when, which is the reason he published his insane special edition this week featuring that silly Gang of 22 against Trump.
This old article provides the background for my

Lowry is getting paid by Fox News. The Kelly File specifically selected him as a guest and he is contracted for x appearances.
The people she brings on can disagree with her - but it'll cost them. They are all beholden.
Fox has encouraged her in this vendetta she pushes every night.
Lowry and Rove have been close for years.

Thanks for the post
Serves NR and Faux News right. Let them cannibalize each other

The back and forth sniping is getting tiresome. Talk about issues and how your going to beat Hillary (if you can hopefully beat Hillary). Enough with the 4th grade crap.

I believe it.
Brit got a divorce and this happened before Megyn married husband #2, with whom she now has 3 children.

Yes, Ralph Peters was suspended from Fox for a less vulgar comment. When Fox Business Network's Stuart Varney of "Varney & Co." asked about Obama's Sunday night address on terrorism, Ralph Peters melted down. "Well, first of all, he keeps speaking about 'we can't give into our fears.' You know, 'don't be afraid.' Look, Mr. President, we're not afraid. We're angry. We're pissed off. We're furious. We want to see you react. We want you to do something," Peters' tirade continued.
"You're afraid. I mean, this guy is such a total pussy, it's stunning," Peters exploded. "We the people, the American people, who he does not know in any intimate sort of manner. We want action. We want action against Islamic State and then when the president is telling us he is going to destroy ISIS," he continued. "This is a president who has done more harm to American police departments than he has done to Islamic State. This is a president who restrains our military. He uses it not to defeat ISIS, but for political purposes for political cover. This is a president who doesn't want to hurt our enemies, this is a president who cares more about thugs in Guantanamo or thugs in Ferguson, Missouri, than he does about law-abiding American citizens and their right to live in safety and peace."
I think that Fox, in order to be "fair and balanced," is bending over so far on the balance beam, that it may be up for a Gold Medal. At least, the Democrats will hold up the "10 cards" for Fox.

LOL! Too delicious. Me again under the behavior lights, for a change.
Have I said it yet? TRUMP is a genius.

Lowry and NRO publishing a special anti-Trump edition has nothing to do with back and forth “sniping” between candidates.

OMGosh, yes!
I really was thinking I could not watch this Megyn debate, not after the first one. It was too much for me and I have not watched her since.
Now that TRUMP has put the monkey on her back just in time for the debate, I will take a peek. :)
