Fox News and the New York Post, magnate Rupert Murdoch’s main media outlets, have started distancing themselves from Donald Trump as the US election vote counting drama drags on — a first since the president came to power and a potential turning point.

NY Post has done absolute betrayal since the election. Fox should be shunned forever.

You have that right! Treating him like a leper.

Which reminds me: Now I think, more than before, that Trump getting COVID was an attempt on several lives.

They started when they were the only one to declare Arizona for biting, when there weren’t enough votes counted to Warrant it.

OK. Let's see what cases get filed tomorrow.

Then see who actually becomes President.

Then see what FOX's shareholders have to say.

Fox News ratings have already started to collapse. A DISASTER for Fox on Wednesday and Thursday and it will get much worse:

The NY Post should be careful. They better take a look at what is happening with Fox. If they think we are coming back, they better think twice.
