Fox News has updated its network marketing campaign to "Standing Up For What's Right" following President Donald Trump's Twitter tirade against the cable news channel.

The new verbage appears on primetime chyrons, and comes soon after Trump went on a retweet spree against the network, making sure his 89 million followers saw the statement "#foxnews is dead."

>> Fox is becoming the new turncoat Drudge Report.

It seems like they all turn. Next, it could be The Gateway Pundit.

Danny O’Brien knows how to choose ‘em. I detect a common theme in the following!

13 Jan 2015: Roll Call: Menendez Staffer Bids Farewell to Hill Life
By Humberto Sanchez
Danny O’Brien never had a career path plotted out — certainly not one that included serving as Senate Foreign Relations Committee staff director for the past two years, in the Clinton White House or in senior Senate posts for now-Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. and Sen. Robert Menendez, D-N.J.
Now, after more than 20 years in the public sector, O’Brien is calling it quits to join General Electric’s global government affairs team...

O’Brien was Biden’s Senate chief of staff in 2003, then helped lead his 2008 run for president.
“Danny has not only real substantive depth on domestic and foreign policy issues, he also understands how to get things done,” Biden told Roll Call through an email from his staff. “He knows the right thing to do at the right moment. That’s the mark of a good leader.”...

For the 1998 cycle, O’Brien was hired by the Democratic National Committee to lead a program organizing and training state parties and campaigns, helping to shape the response to Bill Clinton’s impeachment...

In 2000, again at the behest of Reid, O’Brien led Democratic presidential nominee Al Gore’s campaign in Nevada. After a second campaign loss, O’Brien thought he’d had enough of political campaigns. That was until he met Jim McGreevey, who was running for governor of New Jersey, in a move that would lead him to Biden.

It took some convincing, including from then-Democratic National Committee Chairman Terry McAuliffe, who is now governor of Virginia, but O’Brien did join the ultimately victorious McGreevy campaign. Of course, three years later McGreevey surprisingly resigned after confessing to having a secret male lover whom he had tried to install as a Homeland Security adviser...

After the 2001 gubernatorial campaign, then-Sen. Robert G. Torricelli, D-N.J., tapped O’Brien to be his chief of staff. But that ended up being Torricelli’s last year in Congress. After the Ethics Committee admonished him for accepting gifts from a campaign donor, Torricelli decided not to seek re-election in 2002...

O’Brien helped Lautenberg set up his office before moving over as Biden’s chief of staff. In 2006, O’Brien left Capitol Hill to become political director of Biden’s presidential campaign...
Biden, who had a shoestring campaign budget, came in fifth in the Iowa caucuses and shortly thereafter dropped out of the race. But O’Brien said he still feels like they came in second, since Barack Obama chose Biden to join the ticket as his running mate...

Jedi’s twitter posts are despicable and indicative of someone truly indoctrinated who sold their soul for 30 pieces of silver.

Newsmax is not on my cable. I can get it streaming but as long as I have the ones I listed, I’ll stick with them. No matter what, FOX, and FOX Business are the most conservative voices available on TV. I agree some of them are unwatchable, and I refuse to watch them, but I’ll also continue to watch the ones that are on my side,

Lou Dobbs just did an exceptional job of laying out the case of rampant voter fraud. I’m anxious to see his show tomorrow night. I

Roll Call article also included:

Looking back on his career — which included seven years of working in the labor movement in Eastern Europe and South America — O’Brien marveled at how it all unfolded, without much planning on his part.

AFL-CIO:

7 March 2003: Roll Call: House has new Ruler
(Danny) O’Brien spent the better part of the early ’90s working for the AFL-CIO, managing democracy programs in Latin America and Eastern Europe.

Syria/Egypt - they worked out well!

2013: Yahoo: National Journal: Five Staffers to Watch on Foreign Aid
by Sara Sorcher
#1 Danny O’Brien, majority staff director, Senate Foreign Relations Committee
O’Brien, 50, who was chief of staff for Menendez and for former committee ranking member Joe Biden, D-Del., has worked in the Senate for about a decade, and previously spent seven years in South America and Eastern Europe working on AFL-CIO trade union and democracy programs.
The committee is developing an embassy security bill, has passed a resolution on Syria in support of arming vetted opposition groups, and is monitoring Egypt closely. “Aid to the Egyptian military should be looked at, but it also should be used as potential leverage to affect the way the military is handling this phase as they move toward a new constitution and promised elections right afterwards,” O’Brien said. “[We’re] in a very difficult time where a lot of people are questioning federal funding priorities, and there’s a lot of neo-conservatism and isolationism,” he said...

Sooo Newsmax needs to up it’s game by replacing the not so good looking newscasters with more attractive ones? Come on, man. That stuff shouldn’t even matter right now.

[I’d be all for competition for FOX but CNN isn’t doing it.]


Newsmax, the Blaze and One America News Network are cable and internet alternatives available for the price of a $40 Roku box. They’re at where Fox News was at its inception. But Newsmax has ballooned from tens of thousands of viewers to over a million. Improvements in production values are coming.

Roger Ailes, who had a hand in Reagan’s and Bush’s campaigns, was the first Republican honcho to head up TV news that I know of. When he was booted out, Fox News swung sharply to the left, thanks to the Murdoch offspring. No point in subsidizing the enemy.

Don’t worry about Fox losing money. The Murdocks can get plenty of money from George Soros, now that they have the same goals for America.

Fox News is like an ice cream store that specialized in chocolate ice cream in a town that only had stands selling vanilla.

After great success, they caved in and decided to join the others and exclusively sell vanilla.... The end.

They could call it “Looking out for what’s left” after they chased people to Newsmax.

Hold the line. Do not go to FOX. You can get all programs online if you must, but support Newsmax, Oan, any conservative program. The real news is out there. If we all flock back to FOX nothing will change. I’m getting all the news I want from Newsmax and I’m sure they will improve with time now. I expect some of the FOX people will come over to them.

It’s startling to me that they ( the 2 Murdoch Sons ) believe they can really bring back those viewers that have been offended and cut them off because of their blatant Hyper-Partisan 2020 election calls. Like the Wife of 1 of them Happily Stated on Twitter a few days after Nov 3rd—— “ We Did It! “ You sure did honey and your company will pay for it for all of Eternity, as nobody I know is going back, ever. Told my wife, cable is cut in January, we’re going the Roku way.

Their brand is destroyed with the left. The left hates them. They will never get leftist viewers. Megan Kelly and NBC found that out.
