President Donald Trump criticized Fox News on Friday in some of his sharpest rhetoric to date, noting that the network was “no longer great” in 2020.
Trump spoke about Fox News in an event with talk radio legend Rush Limbaugh on Friday and also in an interview with talk radio host Mark Levin.
...
“One of the biggest differences is Fox,” he said during Levin’s show. “Fox is a whole different ballgame than it used to be. Fox was great. Fox was great. Fox is no longer great.”
Levin, who has a weekend program on Fox News, noted that he would probably get some phone calls from Fox News executives to complain about Trump’s comments.
“I say it on Fox. I don’t care,” Trump replied. “What difference does it make at this point?”
The president also criticized Fox News during his two-hour “radio rally” with talk radio host Rush Limbaugh.
“You have such an incredible audience. So I can tell them about Fox being a big obstacle,” said Trump. “It’s a problem. Fox is a problem.”
Trump admitted to Limbaugh that he would continue to deal with Fox’s more critical tone toward his presidency.
“I deal with ’em. I deal with ’em,” he said. “But they’ve gone a very different path. It’s a much different group. They have guys on there that are so bad.”
The president blamed the network’s more critical tone toward him on former Speaker Paul Ryan, whom they hired to sit on the company’s board.
“When Roger Ailes ran Fox, I mean, Roger had a very strong point of view. It’s totally gone,” Trump said to Limbaugh. “And I think it’s influenced by Paul Ryan.”

Not so much.
Trump 100% correct, Fox News Channel is absolutely terrible. I do not think it will ever change, In fact, I believe it will only get worse!!! Now....when I watch Fox, I just tune in to Carslon, Hannity, Ingraham, and a few others like Levin, Watters, Fox & Friends, Gutfeld, etc.!!! Also...I try to watch only FBN...period!!!
Wallace, Cavuto, Gasperino, need to be dumped, Saspo...they all have terrible TV viewer ratings. Actually, with a few strategic personnel moves FNC/FBN could own the TV news viewers across the world. But, A major upper management change is needed also.
Little by little there are many conservative live streams & networks available, which is both good and helpful...but if Rush Limbaugh, Carlson, Hannity, Ingraham, Watters, Gutfeld, etc., raised some serious cash they should create their own cable network which IMHO would be an instant massive hit, wiping out all other cable news networks,1,2,3,!!!
Sadly old man Rupert Murdoch is killing the goose that laid the golden egg!!! Fox New Network joins Matt Drudge is showing how to kill a number one cable TV Business!!!

You got that right !
Fox’s Sandra, who anchers after fox and friends has become quite slanted too.
Is it just me or did fox start going down hill since Paul Ryan came on board?
Paul Scumrat Ryan is on their board? What??
It’s just you. Faux has been going downhill a long time. I gave up on them in 2012. Then they were just more “stealthy” in their propaganda push.
Old man Rupert Murdoch has been out of the picture for a while now and turned his News Corp empire over to his two sons.
Most of News Corp's holdings around the world are liberal. Fox News was conservative because of a business decision to offer something different to the American market, and it paid off. But Murdoch's sons are themselves more liberal than their dad, and can't stand Fox News' conservative slant.
Imagine what you would do if you were suddenly given full control over CNN. Well, Murdoch's sons feel just the opposite about FNC.
They’re BigState. All of the so called “media”.
Located right in the heart of BigState.
Advertising designed to take advantage of people. Abusers.
NEWSMAX is great but it's in the UPPER UPPER Channels area that no one can find.
No doubt that Fox News has gone over to the other side. Producers are now telling hosts to blast Trump and some like Brian Kilmead are not happy about it..
I don’t watch fox at all any more. It was obvious that Paul Ryan’s presence was going to tear down the whole neighborhood. So It was easy to drop it into the trash as soon as he came aboard.
Some of the folks whom I enjoyed have other venues like radio or other web sites. If I want to hear them, then that’s called having alternatives.
I do hope the other more conservative folks build themselves a nice pillow to land on when they pull the plug on them.
He needs to push One America News. they are pro Trump
Fox is a great big pile not that Paul Ryan’s involved.
the Fox panel for the VP debate said it all. I think it was:
Wallace, Brit Hume, Dana Perino, Donna Brazile, Juan Williams, MacCallum.
who would watch that?
I detest Juan Williams and Donna Brazile. Can’t stand to watch The Five anymore when those two are on. Donna Brazile should not be allowed to be on any conservative show considering she gave the questions to Hilary during the Trump debate.
Fox news used to be our “go to” TV news channel. Not any more. The idea of just reporting the news without any spin, nuance, prejudice, bias, etc. doesn’t seem to be in their purview.
