Being Trump's Mouthpiece Is Risky for Fox News — and Democracy

Regarding the whole uranium thing...to what end? I mean, selling to Russian’s is one thing, but is that the end-customer? The material that went to Canada, then Europe, where then? This had to be tracked. I’ve not heard where the intended destination is, just that there WERE exports.

Indeed, many at FNC were openly hostile to the Trump campaign: Cavuto, Kelly, Krauthammer, Hume, Smith, Perino, Gutfeld, and others.

Because ABCCBSNBCCNNMSNBCNYTWAPOLAT have done such a great job providing oversight to Democrat corruption.

"Recently, this has included attacking Mueller's integrity and credibility, dismissing the investigation as part of a political "witch hunt," as Hannity put it and depicting Hillary Clinton as the real source of scandal."

As if the left didn't go into full attack mode against Kenneth Starr. This smelly animal (Ruth) has a very short memory.

"Indeed, many at FNC were openly hostile to the Trump campaign: Cavuto, Kelly, Krauthammer, Hume, Smith, Perino, Gutfeld, and others."

Hannity and Judge Jeanine were strongly pro-Trump, but most of the others were either anti-Trip or skeptical of Trump.

NBC? Pot? Kettle?

The people relentlessly negative about Trump are harming themselves more than they’re hurting Trump.

You really have to wonder about these people and their unshakable faith in their own ability to persuade others by the power of their unilateral sophistry.

They don't seem to understand that Trump has filled the role of the little boy telling townspeople "the emperor is naked." Those townspeople kept their opinions to themselves until someone, other than the supremely confident who were previously marginalized by the media's "mean girl" tactics, validated "the townspeople's" suspicions about the media beyond any reasonable doubt.

Despite unprecedented social changes and indices brought about by the Trump victory, they're still lining up their redcoats like soldiers of that failing empire they serve.

This fact is brought home most satisfyingly by watching this season's "American Horror Story: Cult." Either AHS has, without any hint from those who produce it, become a satirical parody instead of a horror story, or those same people don't see the townspeople laughing at their nakedness while they believe they're mocking the townspeople's lack of discernment!

From the obozo news media

Bwahahahaha

[KC_Conspirator]

She is not well.

[KosmicKitty]

History and Italian Studies?? But that makes her qualified to discuss authoritarianism? And Trump?

Someone’s been educated beyond their intelligence.

[reasonisfaith]

Some sort of deal, like immunity, regarding their past federal crimes.

[Impy]

The era of accepting the professed neutrality of the MSM is over. Back in the day all the papers were openly partisan and that was fine.

[Republican Wildcat]

Fox News may be enjoying large audiences right now, partly because of its close relationship with the president, but the network is taking a real risk — both to itself and to our democracy — by peddling falsehoods

You mean like the fish feeding story the mainstream news repeatedly lied about?

Extraordinary this comes from someone writing for NBC, of which MSNBC is a part - and we are to believe she's concerned about accuracy in reporting? Questions So Stupid Only MSNBC Would Ask

[VeniVidiVici]

She should write about how many times Bammy and Clinton appeared on Fox News over the years.

[a little elbow grease]

"Yet history won't look kindly on journalists or news organizations that make themselves mouthpieces of an increasingly anti-press administration."

______

History won't look kindly on NBC, SeeBS, ABC, CNN, MSNBC, and others for being the mouthpieces of anti-American communist horsesh*t. History won't look kindly on the public school system and college propaganda that has successfully turned a couple of generations into lame-thinking little weak socialists. History won't look kindly on an "entertainment industry" that is an anti-American perverted sewer.

Ruth Ben-Ghiat is a MORON.

[a little elbow grease]

Better than nbc being Hillary’s rectum.

lol

[a little elbow grease]

The left really hates any opposing viewpoints. It’s not enough that every other major print and television outlet are mouthpieces of the left, they want total and completely control of every narrative.----

YES

[trebb]

Funny how they attack one of the best things about Fox - and the reason Fox continues to kick the other propaganda stations’ asses....
