Fox is only somewhat better than the rest of the MSDNC media. At least they still allow a few decent people on like Tucker Carlson etc.
Sounds as though they fear Soros retaliation.
It was insulting - he could have been more tactful. Paul Ryan was probably yelling in his ear!
Earlier thread with lots of comments about the awkward segment and Newt’s surprise that Soros is the name that shall not be mentioned on the network.

Well then you can get 100% fake news, at least with fox you will get only 35% fake news.
And since large corporations are all getting woke, the choice is now between leftist and slightly-less leftist.
Soooo....you’re saying that a talk show host, or a news channel host cannot be free to opine about anything they feel is newsworthy?
THAT doesn’t sound right.
I think it’s more of a bribery thing, than a threat thing.
I could be wrong.
Wow, Soros, soroS!
That was Melissa Francis, which surprised me. Then a**hat Harf agreed, then talked over Gingrich when he said "he funded it".
I happened to have it on in the background and my antennae went up when Francis said that.
Censorship in real time. Wonder if Twitter goes into a frenzy trying to take all those videos down.
I’ve been wtaching OANN and Newsmax.
Some here have issues with Newsmax...saying the owner donated to ILLary.
But....they host the Howie Carr Show, among many other great segments.
Otherwise....I stream Bannon and other great shows.
Fox is not alive, to me.
Except Tucker and a VERY few more.
Newt knew it is a verboten to mention that name in any negative way. That’s why he dropped the S bomb and acted surprised.
She’s been turned, who would have thunk it?
I saw it. Mellisa was the first one who immediately said, sternly, something like, “ don’t bring Soros into this”, and shortly thereafter, Marie Harf said, “no, I agree no Soros” (paraphrasing). Newt was stunned and speechless, for a minute,then said, “oh, okay, it’s verboten?”. Then dead air. Wow. What gives? When they came back from break I expected an explanation but there was none. They looked ridiculous.
Not surprising. Fox doesn’t want to be Sandman’d by Soros. Probably already received Cease and desist.

Poor Bud Dwyer.
And the kids were home from school that day, it was a snow day.
The TV newsies broke in on what they were watching, so many kids in PA. got to see a man blow his head off...live...on the tube.
At least it was ‘t in living color.
Wrong finger.
I have no doubts and have long felt likewise, largely since the day CavutoIdiot had his meltdown over Trump mentioning the use of hydrochloride. The only one I watch now on FoxNews is Tucker, otherwise, I head over to OANN or NewsMax for news.
Glen Beck said it was a threat.
...and big black spiders on their eyelids.
