Fox News screwed up the questions. There could have been some real gasoline thrown on the fire. We missed a lot of Hillary and Obama bashing questions. Next Debate we need to let loose the LIONS!

I don’t take it for granted that Fox News hosts want to get the questions right from the point of view of those who yearn to elect a Republican president. Fox hosts, like other elite media conservatives, surely realize they get higher ratings and sell more books when grassroots conservatives—their consumer base—are angry and discontent due to a Democrat holding the White House. Note that I’m not alleging a conspiracy, but rather the possibility of a widespread mindset or mass psychology within Media Conservatism Inc. that realizes that having a Democrat president better serves their bottom line, with the natural consequence that much of Media Conservatism Inc. ill serves the cause of electing a Republican president.
