FOX News host Megyn Kelly announced tonight at the end of her show that she will be going on a much needed vacation for the next week-and-a-half.
Pretend conservative journalists start out doing conservative stories to get their jobs.
As do politicians.
But their ideology always wins out, even if it destroys their careers because, really being liberals, they think they are so much smarter than everyone else and will brainwash us if we would just pay attention to their ‘brilliance.’
Happens over and over. Need to quit falling for it.
You're pretty loose with your low opinion after only having been here a short while. There is that matter of percentages and degree to be sorted out before you make such a broad-brush characterization.
"I can remember when Fox was actually a good outlet for conservatives to view. Time for a new competitor to fill the vacuum on cable TV."
I remember O'Reilly being nasty after the death of Strom Thurmond, in a way he would never be to anyone else recently deceased ( we'll see soon with Jimmy Carter won't we ). He went so far as to disrespect Thurmond's black child ( okay, halfrican like Barry ). Disgusting.
But the corner was turned in mid-2008 when there was some kind of pow-wow between Team Obama ( Axelrod ) and Fox News ( Ailes or Murdoch ), specifically about NOT covering his background of Communism ( baby momma and daddy, Ayers, etc ), Islam in Indonesia, and his lack of natural born citizenship ( no President ever had a foreign father ). They treated Obama as if he was any other run-of-the-mill (D)ummycrat from suburbia, and not like the foreign-influenced America-hating domestic enemy he was.
Then during the TEA Party summer of 2009 and election season of 2010 remember the Glenn Beck era when he was dominating the evening shows and on the verge of unseating O'Reilly. They eased him out in 2011 and the TEA Party coverage became rare and pathetic. With their tacit acceptance of Obama's eligibility, Obamacare and rejection of us TEA Party crazies they completed their morphing into just another alphabet media outlet.
There are countless other examples of infighting and palace intrigue but really all we ever needed to know was that they hired Geraldo Rivera. The Murdoch empire is all about tabloid, and brings these under the same roof ...
... among many others. The only thing missing is Jerry Springer.
One more quick boisterous laugh at the expense of the “So what, she’s just taking a family vacation in August on a Wednesday to save airfare” posters:
IF she had received 90% glowing reviews here and on Facebook from CONSERVATIVES, does ANYONE really believe she’d be high-tailing it out of town on just another family vacation right afterwards?
Simple common sense.
The three mods have told how hard they worked on crafting their questions so they must have had plenty of leeway from upper management. They were all SO pleased with themselves, even AFTER the debate when so many Americans were sad and angry . . they didn’t have a clue and neither did Roger Ailes. He gave kudos to all three of them for a wonderful debate. So . . yes . . I agree that Fox owes its viewers a big mea culpa.
Complete foolishness.
Look at Kelly’s legal career long before broadcasting.

She is going to get those crazy eyes of hers fixed.
Two things:
WSJ and NR are not reliably conservative; and
Fox had in the past touted itself as "fair and balanced", and "we report, you decide."
That's why there is outrage. Fox for the past ten years was always the one and only place where a conservative point of view could be heard. Now that new leadership has apparently decided to change all that, viewers were taken off guard.

She always comes across as sincere and conscientious. Maybe that doesn’t ring Ailes’ chimes. Hopefully, Harris would have balked at the idea of sandbagging Trump.
It’s pretty obvious they knew the right 3 to pick who WOULD try to sandbag him. What a shock when he ate their lunches and b****slapped them with their empty sacks.
Yes.
What is an "acwaybto"?
"I’m not understanding the hate....Trump's supporters are merely following his lead, and he is a hater toward anyone who attempts to denigrate him. Our nation could use a Knight in Shining Armor type, more similar to St. Michael, than to Obama..."
Or ... she did the equivalent of taking a cellphone video of your husband spanking your kids and trying to ruin him as a child abuser.
These days, when a man is accused of anything that is career threatening it had better be true and unmistakable. It is extremely hard to defend oneself in a politically correct atmosphere. No-one should support use of innuendo when the stakes are so high. What she did that time, and two others is evil.
Trump defies this modern PC era with its howling media attack puppies. Clearly that angers Trump Derangement Syndrome patients and invigorates his "supporters".
For $200 Alex, the question is:
What is "a way to "?
Must have been two different interview.
Know generous was his last word because I had just connected Trump with Carson through their philanthropy work with St Jude. Children Hospital and the Thomas family
That word confirmed the research.
But I like your combination of words too
Regardless Dr Ben thinks highly of him
During the debate, trump was deflecting an Alinsky attack. (The doctor had mentioned Alinsky just before)
As Trump was talking the camera briefly panned to Carson. He had a twinkle in his eye, nodding head in affirmative was smiling from ear to ear. That’s when the notion that they had a relationship and the goggle got active.
A Presidential debate is not another edition of The Kelly File.
Hannity, no.
HUME, Greta and Laura.
