Murdoch, Fox Ramp Up Attacks on Donald Trump
newsmax ^ | Nov 17 | By Charlie McCarthy

Posted on 11/17/2022 11:22:05 AM PST by RandFan

Rupert Murdoch-owned media outlets, including Fox News, have ramped up attacks on Donald Trump after the former president declared his run to reclaim the nation's top office.

Even before Trump made his announcement Tuesday night, The New York Post ran an opinion column headlined, "Bore! Donald Trump has gone and lost his swing."

"It's very hard to see how Trump could ever win the White House again, so the result is foretold: A Trump nomination would make him a two-time loser and mean four more years of a Democrat in the Oval Office," the Post's Michael Goodwin wrote at the end of his column.

The Post continued to portray Trump negatively after his campaign kickoff announcement.

The newspaper reported that Trump's prime-time declaration was ignored by network news outlets, only partially running on CNN and Fox News Channel, and also that "conservatives and liberals alike" were "expressing dismay" on Twitter of the former president's decision.

The Post's front page also displayed a story that highlighted the famous no-shows — including Trump's daughter Ivanka — and technical issues at the Mar-a-Lago announcement.

The Post and The Wall Street Journal, also owned by Murdoch, published stories about how Trump's support among Republicans is lagging.

” “Bore! Donald Trump has gone and lost his swing.””

What a MEAN headline! And immature as well! And boorish.

Well I guess that’s it then.

Yeah they’re OK but only on Pluto in my cable feed.

If they or OANN manage to get on actual cable, makes it a lot easier.

Eventually I’ll be 100% streaming but using the canned crap like Roku or Xfinity or whatever I always end up fighting the Woke programming roadblocks

Does anyone believe President Trump didn’t know exactly what they’d do?

Knowing this, I cannot guess how he counters it. Perhaps he doesn’t and this is a head fake?

I really don’t know. All I do know is that President Trump has made the call and I will support him.

Just how I’m wired. God will provide a light in the darkest hour. Be a shame to ignore it.

If DeSantis is the people’s choice, let them decide!!! It is a disservice to DeSantis to try to prop him up to get rid of Trump who is STILL the people’s choice. But, this is typically a Republican Establishment tactic. They don’t want the choice of the Republican voters, they want THEIR choice. Except for Tucker Carlson, I DO NOT WATCH FOX.

Rupert’s Australian. He’s a foreign corporate interest colluding with the Dems.

Every billionaire has his butt hole puckered and is dumping anti Trump with their $$$.

They are not looking out for us.

That says it all.

All the talking heads are sitting on fat wallets. For sale and we are what they are selling.

To hell with each and every one of them.

Ceaușescu fate for the lot of them from the tools to the artists of grift, graft and gagging us on gay.

Viking eagles for the people behind the gas lights.

The “just move on” mantra is basically what the GOPe, Rinos et al did after 2020 and guess what, the Dems did the same thing again in 2022. So that mantra has zero validity in the real world.

Good that Trump got in already, people will get sick of this crap and he’ll be the sympathy candidate.
