Fox is pro-Rubio since Fox is following the Repug establishment's choice
Hilarious, isn't he? Not a word on FOX about Rubio - they are gonna protect the establishment candidate while blasting both Trump and Cruz.
Fox is pro-Rubio since Fox is following the Repug establishment's choice
I didn't make myself clear: Not a word on FOX ABOUT Rubio's campaign doing the same thing Cruz did to Carson.
I bet you wish sanders could get as much coverage for free
Trump should just ignore the Iowa thing...he's coming off as a huge major salty got. Cruz is in his head now
I don't blame Trump for going on about it. About 4 people in each of the 1500 precincts changing their votes from Carson to Cruz could have handed him the victory in Iowa. Cruz should fire the person responsible for putting that narrative out - protect the integrity of his campaign - but not gonna happen.
But I thought Fox was fair and balanced.
Des Moines paper now saying something was fishy in the IA caucuses, maybe on both sides, but esp the Dem side.
Anyway, it looks like Trump will crush in NH, and dum-and-dummerer-to, and his mother, will be crushed in NH.
Owned by establishment who want to bring down Trump - could see that from the first debate. Pumping up Rubio with their focus group.
No, that would be The O'Reilly Factor.
So Fox isn't fair and balanced? Are you saying their coverage is deliberately stilted?

Even Trump doesn't believe the stupid he says, and the only reason he says it is to get media coverage.Trump had another plan—a very specific plan—to run for president. [at a meeting with NY GOP county chairs, asking him to run in NY]
“He said, ‘I’m going to walk away with it and win it outright,’” a long-time New York political consultant recalled. “Trump told us, ‘I’m going to get in and all the polls are going to go crazy. I’m going to suck all the oxygen out of the room. I know how to work the media in a way that they will never take the lights off of me.’”
“You can’t run for president on earned media,” one attendee recalled telling Trump.
The billionaire looked up, and paused for a long moment. “I think you’re wrong,” Trump said.
Anybody who thinks the stupid he says sounds good is an idiot being cynically manipulated.
Says volumes about the GOP base, IMO. That the rank and file support what he says is reason enough to keep them far away from holding the reins of government. They have been sucking up a diet of ignorant vitriol from Fox/talk radio for years.
Iraq, Katrina, Flint, Kansas, etc, etc, etc. The list of GOP failures when you give them a chance to run things gets longer every year.
Hopefully voters, especially the low-information "both parties are the same" idiots will finally get the message. The Trump candidacy should be a rather clear message that the two parties are vastly different.
edit---
The only reason Trump is saying that is to co-opt the media cycle. The ONLY reason.
Fox news is fair and balanced. Fox Commentators aren't. Just like Rachel Maddow isn't fair and balanced. One thing about Fox is the commentators will usually have someone present the opposing view even if they get shouted down.
I think you miss the fact that their other editorial decisions as to what to cover, and how much are just as stilted as their commentators are. The selection of the taglines, stilted reporting language, and so forth all provide even more spin, even in their conventional coverage.
It probably wouldn't take much work to show that rather conclusively, by simply counting airtime/stories on Democratic scandals versus Republican scandals.
"Fair and Balanced" My ass.
Well when the alternative is the dems who rank and file whatever hillary and obama spew out...
Not really quite the way Dems work.
When it comes Obama, the most you can say about Dems is that they haven't sucked up every bit of hysterical anti-Obama propaganda that comes down the pike.
Most Dems I know tend to regard Obama as a mediocre president, who could have done better. He is liked, but not horribly adored.
LOL sucking up the stereotypes without any critical thinking.
And most republicans don't like donald trump.
White nationalist explains why Trump’s racist message ‘appeals’ to ‘ordinary white people’
Apearing on CNN, the head of a white nationalist group that that has been behind robocalls supporting billionaire businessman Donald Trump’s run for the Republican presidential nomination explained that Trump’s immigrant-bashing is very “appealing” to “ordinary white people.”Speaking with CNN’s Drew Griffin, Jared Taylor of white nationalist website American Renaissance began by explaining that “most white people would prefer to live in majority white neighborhoods and send their kids to majority white schools.”
“And when Donald Trump talks about sending out all the illegals, building a wall and a moratorium on Islamic immigration — that’s very appealing to a lot of ordinary white people,” he said
Taylor saved most of his vitriol for Muslims, asking “Why would we want more” of them since some of them want to “kill us.”
“Why would we want more Muslims? Muslims have been a terrible problem for Europe, and here they want to pray five times a day,” he explained. “Stop the assembly line, they want foot baths before they go to prayer, they want women-only swimming pool hours, and some of them want to kill us. Why should anyone want more Muslims?”
Trump has dismissed any connection to American Renaissance, issuing a broad statement saying that his campaign disavows the “support” of all super PACS.

Fox was created by the media director of the GOP. He remains the chairman. There is no similar conflict of interest in any major news service.
conflict?
there's no conflict between Repugs/VRWC/BigCorp and their very own Fox Propaganda channel. conflict?![]()
Happened earlier. A clip will probably come up later.
