I left FNC for FBN to watch Lou Dobbs, Charles Payne and Neil Cavuto.

I guess I am now down to two, Payne and Cavuto.

I haven’t watched Fox for the past few days. I did tune in, briefly, to listen to O’Reilly’s thinly veiled begging session with Trump, and that’s been it.

When I hear any of them now, they make me sick. I doubt they’ll have Ann Coulter back on (Hannity) now that she’s written a scathing article about them. I don’t know what I’m going to watch now....may as well go with CNN. At least they don’t pretend to be conservative.

The ratings were about as expected.
They probably would have been higher with Trump, but probably not much. People do tire of the same thing over and over.

Completely wrong analysis on the OP’s part. The debates have dropped greatly in ratings since the first two. CNN’s 2nd and FoxBiz’s 2nd were much lower than the first. This one was going to be much lower than Fox’s first. Only about 2 million more people watched CNN and MSNBC than normal, so that’s all you can say Trump’s fans who bolted from Fox consisted of. If the real number is 14 million then I’d say there was very little audience out there who simply didn’t watch either channel. 15 to at the absolute most 16 million is about the ratings that would’ve been expected for this debate normally.

Hey, Lou...You’re a pretty smart guy..but even so I only finish the sixth grade I think I’m kinda smart too...So let me see if ya can understand sometin.

Ya see, I don’t think the Trumpster was all dat excited about doing this here debate, in da first place...but I don think he had no intention of not showing.

So, I personally think, that he’s getting bored by dem...So he brings up the Kelly Megyn fewd thingy...and she counters...And it’s great pre debate hype...

And we’re moving into the direction of probably the biggest viewed debate of all time, because these two are doing the ALi vs Liston thingy okay? Ya know to draw up viewers...right? Right.

Are ya with me, still Looou?

So, Trump’s son da day before on Fox Morning show says his Dad is lookin forward to da debate...and people like Laura Ennngraaahamm and others say he’s going to do em... and Trump says he is. There’s notin... notin that hints he ain’t...

Got it so far... smart Guy, Loooooou?

So, all of a suddin...someone at Fox leaks to Trump about the ambush they got planned for him...see? and den maybe behind da scenes he now says, hey what gives here? And just maybe, he gets chapter one of Da ARt of Da Deal out, and for da first time he tells dem.. he might not do da debate...like seriously because he don’t think they’re going to not treat him guuud.

With me...Looooo?

But on top of this here ambush with this here Muslim lady...Ailes puts out this chicken Bleeep twit that mocks Trump and makes him look like a loser IF HE CHOOSES to debate...

So, he decides not to...

So, Loooooo. From where I’m standin... I’d say they all had a pretty good thing going there...and no doubt they mighta had 26 or 28 or 30 million people der had they’d played dis right...

They ended up with only 12 mil.

WE know this is your last gig, Big Lou. NO one will hire you after Fox....so we know yous got to toe da line, My Friend...but know one thing... in my mind you provide nothing...new to folks here..... no insight... no new angle...

You’re another Fox guy... who is part of da phony Fox network...that talks about fair and balanced coverage...

YOu all look really silly to us little people...Looooooo ya doooooo....

Am disappointed to hear that about Dobbs. Don’t watch Fox anymore, hardly ever. Have watched Hannity and Judge Jeanine. After Hannity was bashing Trump so bad the other night, I have lost interest in him and his radio program.

Fox has lost so many of their viewers, can’t imagine their ratings are high, how can that possibly be?

All of this is interesting, but like so many threads it misses the real problem.

Fox News boasts maybe 100 times a day that they are fair and balanced.

A few nights ago, O’Reilly had Cruz on and asked him several questions about his relationship with Trump.

After he was through, he announced that he would have Trump on the next night to offer his side.

And true ti his word, he did.

No I am no fan of O’Reilly but he handled that as all true newsmen should, fair and balanced.

Now contrast that with Kelly having three guys on her show: Brent Bozell, Chris Lowery and Chris Stirewalt..all four of them trashing Trump is the nastiest way possible.

Did they invite him to defend himself?

No, because they wanted to destroy him as a candidate.

What ab out that show was ‘fair and balanced”/

So the bottom line is that Fox News has become Fox propaganda.

I totally agree. I was shocked Lou Dobbs caved in to Ailes. Lou has lost my respect. Done watching his show!!

Time to add Lou Dobbs to the “No Watch” list.

Disappointing. At the least Dobbs could have remained silent.

The FOX establishment is circling the wagons-not surprising.

Fox has been spinning like mad tonight.

I'm still for Trump or Cruz, but I hope Trump crushes everybody Monday primarily to burn Fox News.

Might be a petty reason, but I really want FOX's duplicitous asses kicked.

Go Trump, Go Cruz.

I watched him for quite a while until I noticed bits of ignorance poking out the sides of his mask. So he is just an empty suit who learned some buzz words, no substance. Down to two on FBN.
