Oh blech. He’s over there smiling for the camera like a sorority sister and in a city, the scene, a week after a massacre

The others sneer at him for his inappropriateness

Fox will wane terribly as it gives up the base. Liberals won’t tune in

The kids around here used to watch. It’s over

Obama is supposed to leave in about a year. Why would these idiots commit financial resources to this fairy tail now? This is worrisome, do they know something we don’t?

OK!! Everybody pay attention!

Lesson for today:

1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.

2. The sun is a ball of fire that controls the climates of all its planets.

3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.

4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.

5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

No thanks. I'd rather OAN remain independent not be owned by a politician.

Fox is signing on for public relations. What they actually do is open to question.

I think Fox is trying to save its FCC license. I think Old Rupert has a lot of skeletons in his closet.

Hey there,just thought I’d remind you that Trump is not a politician.His numbers are way too high for that.

Ergo the “Inc.”

We watch OAN every morning and their model needs to change slightly. They use far too many “pool” reports from all over the world on some really goofy topics just to fill time. It appears it is a financial issue but it lets too much of the world press narratives go unchallenged.

As for the opinion portions, they are on target, but FOX’s original template was something we had never seen before so anything right of ABC, NBC, CBS and CNN was a welcome relief. Then the internet exploded with content and real unfiltered news and opinion was ours and that exposed the FOX template as nothing more than another corporation fashioning its news to fit its agenda, and it was not fair and balanced as we have found.

As I still see Trump more as a citizen businessman than I ever will as a politician, that distinction is a major factor for my comment. Go to this link to see my analysis of why the entire establishment has the long knives out.

It’s also highly unethical.

News organizations should not take sides in issues they can be expected to cover. Particularly controversial politicized issues. It undermines their integrity and create the appearance of a conflict of interest.

When the growing majority of Americans are now skeptics, they see this as a PR move?
