The announcement from Donald Trump’s campaign that the Republican frontrunner will “definitely not†partake in Thursday night’s Fox News debate has sent shock waves throughout the nation’s political scene.
At a press event Tuesday evening, Trump seemed to cite disparate treatment from the network as his reasoning for not participating. “What’s wrong over there, something’s wrong,†Trump said of the “games†Roger Ailes and the network are “playing.â€
In asking the question of “what’s wrong over there?†Trump has shined a spotlight on one of Washington’s best kept secrets: namely, Fox’s role via its founder Rupert Murdoch in pushing an open borders agenda. The Trump campaign is a direct threat to Murdoch’s efforts to open America’s borders. Well-concealed from virtually all reporting on Fox’s treatment of Trump is the fact that Murdoch is the co-chair of what is arguably one of the most powerful immigration lobbying firms in country, the Partnership for a New American Economy (PNAE).

The whole thing just writes large what we’ve already know for years...Fox News is just a wholly owned subsidiary of the GOP Elite.
Fox News is owned by The Cheap Labor Express
Did Meghan Kelly lose lots of money on this debate? Advertisers may be asking for a refund.
Remember the Saudis own a piece of Fox News too. I’m sure they aren’t happy with Trump’s ban on Muslims.
She personally has elevated her career based on the Trump feud. Other networks want her, according to the media buzz. Don’t see her anchoring CBS News. So not sure what role she’d play at another network. Fox has all the ratings.
This is some wild ride and pleased to be aboard your TRiUMPh
Train!
Does Trump plan on never appearing on Fox again?
The notion that Fox News is conservative has been laughable for some time now.
That explains why Cruz is still in the debate.
Trump doesn’t make moves because they will help Fox or Meghan Kelly. Trump makes moves to help himself. This will be interesting to watch because advertisers may be calling Fox forcing them to go back and make a deal with Trump. Trump believes he is the star of the debate not Kelly.
Trump surely has this in his arsenal for use at a needed time.
Boom. Faux faw down
Do you see this Rush?!?! Hello show prep!!!
Trump: "I may, I may not"...."I most likely will not", but I may, haven't made up my mind yet.
Let me ask my supporters, "Should I, think I should? NO, don't think I will. but maybe I will.
Thinking all the while(I really don't give a damn what you want me to do, just playing wif ya., makes ya feel important anyway)
I finally stopped watching Fox News. Most importantly they are NOT Conservative, their programming is 70% commercials, and they insist on having a rat on to “balance” their reporting.
Cruz is in the debate because he wants to debate. He could care less what individual is put there to pose questions. What your statement proves to me is that you are not being honest or else you don’t watch Fox News to any extent.
Fox News despises Cruz.
While utterly, totally in love with Marco Rubio and Chris Christie.
Have treated Cruz as either irrelevant, or as some kind of strange, threatening species that is to be abhorred.
And are still tied at the hip to Karl Rove, who also utterly despises Cruz.
Fox is a liberal network. They are done for me.
