How Donald Trump and Fox News Went Back to War

From Gabriel Sherman writing for New York Magazine:

When it comes to dealing with rogue states, Fox News has a firm editorial philosophy: You don’t negotiate. Roger Ailes is learning that the same logic applies to a rogue candidate. .....

It’s now harder to see an end to the Trump-Fox war soon. As I reported this week, Trump’s poll numbers remain strong and he’s building a robust campaign operation, which is a threat to Ailes’s political project: “Roger says Trump is unelectable. His goal here is to save the country,” a source close to Ailes told me.

Fox is MSM.
MSM is populated and managed by liberals, to further the statist agenda.
Ailes is a Cronie and has accomplished nothing except to build another MSM channel.
Good cop, bad cop.
Either way, we will watch what they want us to watch, whether we like it or not.

What happened to fair and balanced?

Or has it changed to “fair and biased?”

I think Trump has blown up the Fox brand and outed them to presstitude status. No doubt about. What Fox spent 20 years building as a brand is now gone forever.

Wow! It really is true when you take on Trump and you are dishonest by nature you lose.

Fo has lost really really big.

Bring it Ailes.

Let Breitbart TV and OAN take your throne away. Americans find your brand of catty ‘reporting’ tiresome.

What, exactly, is Ailes giving us by saving the country from Trump? More Marxism from the Dems and more incompetence from the GOP? No thanks, Roger.

I suspect a LOT of his customers only have cable/satellite because of Fox News...and if they start cutting the cord and going to Netflix, Fox will be hurting, and BIG TIME.
been there done that... very happy don’t miss a crap flap out of them.

I’m not letting anyone determine who I vote for anymore!!! I’ve held my nose and voted for the lesser of two evils for most of my adult life!!! And I’m sick of it!!!!! Roger Ailes should make sure that his staff conducts themselves professionally. Megyn was snarky and the questions were out of line. We want to know where the candidates stand on issues!!! Not what someone wants to falsely accuse a candidate of!!!

Yes—now that I’m boycotting Fox, I’m noticing I watched too much tv in general. I’m even thinking of trying to get rid of satellite/cable.

This is just stupid.

FOX has devolved into some kind of spoiled or shunned adolescent clamoring for attention. Most of them seem to be on board with that.

I don’t think it matters anymore what’s going on there, Trump should just ignore FOX all together. Let them wallow in their own bile for a year or two.

They are not worth the trouble anymore.
