Fox News knocks Trump over Megyn Kelly 'conspiracy theories'
CNN Money ^ | August 15,2014 | Brian Stelter

Posted on 08/15/2015 8:45:12 AM PDT by Hojczyk

Fox News responded with a sharply worded statement on Friday night.

"The conspiracy theories about Megyn Kelly's vacation rank up there with UFO's, the moon landing and Elvis being alive," a network spokeswoman said. "Megyn is on a pre-planned, annual summer vacation with her family, which is much deserved. To imply otherwise as Donald Trump and his campaign operatives have is not only wildly irresponsible, but downright bizarre."

The spokeswoman added, "Perhaps Mr. Trump thinks it's advantageous to his poll numbers to keep talking about Megyn, but that doesn't change the fact that Roger Ailes has fully supported her and her tough journalistic questioning since day one and is thrilled with the added exposure from the debate, which resulted in even higher ratings of 'The Kelly File' this week."

Kelly talked on Wednesday's program about how she hasn't had a real vacation for six months. She'll be back on August 24.

Rumor has it that ILLEGAL IMMEGRAYSHYN is going to be changing her name to
Migraine Cootie , following her 2-week suspension from Kotex -- I mean -- Ko-Fox.

I realized what they were way back in the 1990’s or early 2000’s. Something just did not seem right about them. I really do not think I have missed anything. I do not like pretenders.

Neal Cavuto surprised me today when he used the “Specifics” talking point when discussing Trump.

I thought Cavuto was above it. Why am I contunuously surprised?

Another big fat lie from FoxNews - plausable deniability or not.

***************************

Thank you Ailes, for CONFIRMING what many of us already suspected, in-bed with the establishment! Thanks for making it crystal clear, Kelly and the rest of that verbal, firing squad got clearance from YOU.

If nothing else, The Donald has flushed a lot of faux conservatives out into the light of day.

“That would be as creepy as MeGYN’s Kelley’s behavior during the debate.”

Didn’t ‘da sistas’ rename her Kelly Megan?

The fact that they are down to perjorative words like 'conspiracy theories', UFOs, etc. shows you how desperate they are to put this debacle behind them.

And who wouldn't take a sudden vacation starting Wednesday evening when they are the 'toast of the town' (not)?

As others have pointed out, this sudden exit is to mask her audience decline while they hope and pray OMG for things to blow over.

Decades ago I challenged my high school Latin teacher re what benefit I would get out of two years of Latin if I didn't become a doctor. She said to all ways remember the Latin saying, CUI BONO, or benefits when things happen without a clear reason why. This rigged debate was/is a prime example of Cui Bono! Cui Bono | Definition of cui bono by Merriam-Webster www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/cui%20bono Merriam‑Webster Definition of CUI BONO. 1. : a principle that probable responsibility for an act or event lies with one having something to gain. 2. : usefulness or utility as a principle in estimating the value of an act or policy.

Yep, when they say, "I've got your back or I'm supporting you!"

You really need to: WATCH YOUR BACK! and plan for your future.

Whatever the truth may be about the vacation, Fox created this madness on purpose. The moderators bragged about how they worked together to write the offensive questions. They wanted to destroy Trump and now they’re paying a price for it.

“Caller on CSPAN is a Democrat all his life. Is switching to Republican to vote for Trump. I have a friend who is doing the same.”

We have several young relatives, male and females, from the midwest/southwest and west coast, who are front line and mid managers of skilled workers like electricians, mechanics, heavy duty equipment operators, and other skills.

These employees are hard working men and women with good skills and most have families and try to live and do things that are correct. Most of the guys hunt/fish and own guns.

Yet, most of these good people have been democrat voters.

Now our relatives are seeing and hearing a large shift of these good people supporting Trump,
