“There’s very few moments occurring on the network that Ailes doesn’t have a hand in–times that by 100 for a GOP presidential debate,” network insider tells TheWrap.
Donald Trump is no longer sure if “Fox is fair” and network chairman Roger Ailes is certainly listening.
Spurned by the network debate moderators’ tough line of questioning, which included Megyn Kelly asking Trump to defend previous comments about women being “fat pigs, dogs and disgusting animals,” the real estate mogul went on the offensive after the debate.
“I’m not sure that Fox is fair necessarily,” he said, claiming the other candidates told him they were glad they didn’t field the tough questions he did and “congratulated” him. On Kelly specifically, Trump said the Fox News host’s line of questioning was not “professional”and although he can handle tough questions, they should be spread around to all the candidates.
“I’m very surprised at Fox News that they would do that; I would say it’s pretty unprofessional,” he said.

People are crazy. Both Fox and Trump got what they wanted out of this debate. Proves they are friends not enemies.
Get over it.
If you can’t handle that without throwing a fit, drop out now.
Trumps back tweeting again just now. Going after Roger and Charles.
I’m not sure if this works to Fox’s advantage but on its face I think it works to DT’s advantage, and it could generate some Dem appeal because now there would be common cause against the rabid acrimony Dems have against Fox news. “The enemy of my enemy”, as it were.
Well, so far hasn’t named Roger.

I think if I had fox network I would disconnect it and save my money for something else more enjoyable...
Trump and the candidates didn't deserve this ‘horse and pony’ show that fox put on and neither did the public....

Clearly the solution to punish Fox for acting like MSNBC is to send in the monthly cable/dish bill at the earliest date.
That’ll show them how mad America is!
You’re a one trick pony.
And not just Trump received inane questions. Kelly asking about God talking sounded disrespectful and snarky.
Roger Ailes plan worked to perfection
He left the other networks with no substantial questions to ask
