TRUMP: I'm Boycotting Fox News

Real-estate tycoon Donald Trump announced on Wednesday that he will no longer do interviews on Fox News shows because the network has been treating him "unfairly."

".@FoxNews has been treating me very unfairly & I have therefore decided that I won't be doing any more Fox shows for the foreseeable future," the Republican presidential front-runner wrote on Twitter.

It wasn't immediately clear what caused Trump to announce the boycott, but he has repeatedly feuded with the network in recent days and weeks.

On Monday night and Tuesday morning, Trump released a lengthy tweetstorm attacking hosts Bill O'Reilly and Megyn Kelly, as well as the "Trump haters" they have on their shows.

He called Kelly "the worst" and labeled her show "terrible." He said O'Reilly "was very negative to me in refusing to post the great polls that came out today including NBC."

He also said he had a hard time watching Fox News, while retweeting multiple supporters trashing Fox and calling for a boycott of the network because of its supposed bias against him.

Why do I NOT believe this BS?

Sorry Fox, you lose. We the People know that your "journalists" are biased members of the COC cabal, following orders from Hillary's BFF Rupert.

Good on Trump, he gives them ratings when he's on, they stab him in the back every chance they get.

FAUX news ain't used to being treated like that.

Good on Trump for not putting up with it.

As they say, paraphrasing a little, "Payback is a Megyn Kelly". :)

A person talking about a “spiritual crisis” upon having held nose and voted for Romney, is a drama queen. Assuming this was even wrong when the alternative was Barack Obama, and that God agreed, she could have just said that God showed her better and now she has a different take, end of story. All the sturm und drang is not of God, it is of the flesh preening itself in a mirror about how it looked and wallowing in agony that it didn’t look so good before.

“Trump is acting like the pouting Baby-In-Chief Obama. We already have one of those we don’t need another”

We don’t need your opinion either.

Trump sends a little something for Fox news ratings. They'll love it!

I am surprised about Lou Dobbs. Not surprised at Geraldo - he never struck me as somebody who valued loyalty.

Spot on....cases in point...the last TWO debates (highest debate ratings, for either party, ever)....the Don Lemmon Show on CNN and last night’s Colbert’s show....ratings through the roof.

Trump brings in ratings

See, here’s the thing. He didn’t call for other people to boycott Fox. He does what he’s gonna do but did it without telling YOU what YOU should do.

That’s how it SHOULD work.

Any network that would let Jeraldo remain on the air, is a network in serious denial.

I agree with Trump on this. I can barely tolerate watching Fox. Every thing they say about him, even in “news” programs, is just plain negative. Even that sick pervert Shepard Smith has to put his two cents in, accusing Trump of being a liar or any random freaking thing during a news program.

I find Trump petulant. Who has terrible character. Just the way he went off on Hugh Hewitt because Hugh asked him a hard question. And the way he went on about Rand's looks at the debate.

With that said sometimes I want to throw something at the TV when Fox hosts support the RINOs.

Yes he does. And those viewers come from somewhere (FOXNEWS).

DUH!
