Fox News continues to insult its audience. This time, the insults came from Kristin Fisher, who was speaking from either ignorance or malice when she attacked Rudy Giuliani after Trump’s legal team gave a press conference.
The press conference was the equivalent of an opening argument in a trial. Giuliani, Sidney Powell, and Jenna Ellis each stated one aspect of the upcoming case: Giuliani described on-the-ground voter fraud, Powell described a sophisticated computer system created in Venezuela to steal votes, and Ellis reminded people that this was an opening argument rather than an evidentiary hearing. The evidence, she said, will come.
The conference was essentially a preview of coming attractions. In a trial, first you tell your story, then you prove your story, and then you summarize your story. The legal team is at Phase One.
That didn’t stop Kristin Fisher from proving that she’s a lousy listener and is staggeringly ignorant about how the American legal system works. Following the press conference, Fisher went after Giuliani like a rabid dog:
“Well that was certainly a colorful news conference from Rudy Giuliani but it was light on facts,” Fisher said after the press conference. “So much of what he said was simply not true or has already been thrown out in court, and Giuliani, he opened by making this really bold and baseless claim that a lot of this alleged nationwide voter fraud that he is referring to all came from one centralized place.”
“He called it a nationwide conspiracy. And yet he failed to provide any hard evidence to back up that one specific claim especially when you’re dealing with a claim that really cuts to the core of our democratic process,” she continued.

The “colorful” remark was a dig against Rudy’s hair color running. Martha took a swipe at Kaleigh Mcenany the other day calling her the “former” White House Press Secretary. They’re really being nasty.
The current owners of Fox have never worked a day in their lives . They are so wealthy at this point what happens with ratings is irrelevant to them. They could care less if they lose us as viewers . Their lives and standard of living will not change if Fox went off the air tomorrow.
I was wondering about that Kristin Fisher myself.
She’s like a typical MSNBC or CNN reporter. Instead of delivering the news, she’s delivering analysis and her own views, which equals being a biased pundit.
Guess FOX is learning from CNN and MSNBC and working towards being like them.
I didn’t see Fisher’s comment because I have expunged Fox from my life. I no longer watch Fox News, I don’t watch Fox entertainment channel programming, and I have unsubscribed from the stupid Fox Alert emails (which I used to get numerous times a day). In short, I hope the company dies and all their phony news readers, including Hannity and Tucker are soon out of jobs.
My former favorite local news channel is affiliated with CBS from 5:00 to 6:00pm and Fox from 6:00 to 7:00pm, had to quit watching them too.
Luckily we have an independent local news station. Not nearly as slick as the CBS/Fox station but at least they are consistenty non-opinionated and just do news. For now anyway.

I remember when Fox first came on the air, they had commercials mocking the other channels and making fun of their cooking shows and fluff pieces.
Yet, here they are in the same boat as the others. Pathetic.
Yeah, it's been positively stunning how quickly FOX turned around and became CNN-lite. It has proven disorienting for a good number of folks.
Conservatives, over time, find themselves with less and less options -- the mass media is now pretty much a 100% Democrat propaganda machine.
Yes, there's NewsMax, OANN, Parler, MeWe, etc., but let's face it -- these are lilliputians compared to the leftmedia goliath, which has just added a new arm, apparently.
Ever since PAUL RYAN joined the Fox News Board of Directors, they have been on a downhill slide.
Fox News has no viewers now. The conservatives should be gone, the leftists will be stroked better at MSDNC etc. only viewership left will be Rhinos and they will dwindle away over time. Oh, yeah, we have decided!
Bye Felicia
Was she the one at the end of questions that kept shouting and never stopped talking?
How many ACTUAL VOTES did Trump defeat Biden by...25 million...30 million...more???
WHY WAS THE COUNTING STOPPED? WHO ORDERED THE COUNTING TO STOP? WHY ISN’T ANYONE ASKING THIS QUESTION?
I've been asking that myself...hey, Bannon? How about it?
I wouldn’t know. Got “foxed” one too many times.
I will never again watch a Fox station. I hope the Murdoch 8!+c# goes broke and has to walk the streets turning tricks for food.
There isn’t an original thinker anywhere in the news media — they can’t stand it. They are all lemmings mindlessly repeating the “narrative” because that is what is expected of them.
Even the so-called conservatives are just a variation on the the theme.
The board of FoxNews has abandoned their business model to ascend in stature with the Global Oligarchy, thus trading profits for power...
Fox will , Fox IS paying for this .
Goodbye Fox.
Too bad you decided to join the circle jerk of treason.
We won’t forget
Are these reporters terminally stupid or something? Jenna Ellis said over and over again the press conference was merely an opening statement and the evidence would come out in court.
She should have looked every reporter in the eye and repeated it so their dense minds could comprehend. “Opening statement, evidence later in court!”
Special retribution is required for those that betray your loyalty. I won’t go as far as saying Fox News is a traitor to the Republic. It does not fit the constitutional definition of treason, however there is a parallel. As such, punishment should also be similar. Traitors when tried and convicted face the death penalty as punishment. None of us call for the death of Fox News personalities, but we certainly can call for Fox News and every employee of News Corp to never been seen again on TV or online again. That is every employee, every Fox News host, including Laura, Tucker and Hannity - they are contributing to the overthrow of the Republic by remaining silent or worse yet spewing what their corporate betters want them to say. They are unAmerican by not fighting for freedom and liberity when given a chance. They are in a unique position to do so and they are wanting. I have no idea how they live with themselves.
Fox is owned by the Murdoch family, who are hard-core globalists and advocates for open borders. Getting Ryan on board was the icing on the cake.
The people there are towing the company line now. It’s all out in the open. Evil is showing its face during these most crucial times. We’re coming to a tipping point, folks.
How did Fisher get this job? She is a total airhead.
Fox is the new msnbc
