Donald Trump feud causes panicking Fox News CEO Roger Ailes to call Ivanka and Melania in attempt to get the frontrunner BACK to the debate - but he'll only speak to Murdoch
Donald Trump's refusal to attend Fox News' debate on Thursday night has sent Fox News into chaos The network's CEO has reportedly reached out to both Ivanka and Melania Trump to try and get the Republican front-runner to change his mind He refuses to attend over the inclusion of anchor Megyn Kelly as one of the debate moderators and will only speak to network head Rupert Murdoch Kelly meanwhile welcomed liberal filmmaker Michael Moore on her program Tuesday night who applauded her handling of the Trump feud One Fox News anchor said of Moore and Kelly; 'That would be like Rachel Maddow laughing along with Charles Koch as he trashed Hillary Clinton!' Trump called Kelly a 'lightweight reporter' on Wednesday morning and his campaign manager said she is 'completely obsessed' with Trump
The Fox News and Donald Trump feud is heating up now that the Republican front-runner has announced he will not be attending the network's debate Thursday night over the presence of anchor Megyn Kelly.
And while the network appears to be publicly siding with Kelly, who is still set to moderate Thursday's debate, the network is also reportedly trying to privately plead with Trump the best way they know how - through the women in his life.
Joe Scarborough revealed on Morning Joe Wednesday morning that Fox News CEO Roger Ailes had been trying to contact both Ivanka and Melania Trump hoping they could convince Trump to change his mind.

Perhaps a deal can be reached. Michael Moore to replace Kelly Megan?
Kelly has an endless parade of human debris on her show trashing Trump and supporting her bias attack on Trump.
It appears that petercooper has nothing to say on the subject. ;-)
Only acceptable replacement for me would be Laura Ingraham.
That troll Mike Wallace will still be on the mod panel. He is snarky enough with all repubs.
Yes, the vets need lots of help. Has anyone heard if Trump will match the donations or is he just ringing bells?
Reveres? wow.
Doubtful it will impact fox but they can go pound sand. Kelly needs to be one of the grains.
Trump should not go to the debate at all. He would look very weak to me if he did.
Fox has screwed the pooch and needs to pay for this one.
Ad revenues for the debate were $750.000 per minute with Trump attending,are now priced at $150,000 without him, still think THAT won't impact Fox?
CNN others have posted...
They’re distracting, and look like woolly caterpillars glued to her eyeholes...these ‘newswomen’ don’t look businesslike or professional, all done-up like that.

Thanks.
"...Ad revenues for the debate were $750.000 per minute with Trump attending, are now priced at $150,000 without him, still think THAT won't impact Fox?..."
You don’t think Trump reveres his wife, children and grandchildren? He always speaks of them in glowing terms.
Trump already said stupid things but that didn’t hurt him.
$150,000 per minute.
Exactly what I have been wondering, especially after seeing her bimbo sex photos: Why does MeGYN have so much power at Fox?
I think it may have to do with Murdoch using MeGYN to take out Trump, so Murdoch can have HIS agenda furthered.....open borders.
Then it’s been a successful day. Cheers.
You do realize soros is an investor, right? He invested in a business, not a campaign.
That’s like saying because the Dominos founder (Who’s a conservative) received loans from citibank, etc. is really ‘a liberal’.
Big difference between that and financing a political campaign.
