It’s been quite a turbulent week for President Donald Trump, and now his favorite cable news network is reportedly in a tailspin.
Well Donnie when you’ve lost Fox where are you going to go to get your daily/hourly dose of self affirmation?
Next up on Fox: Trump, the Clinton donor.
There is always this guys…
No anchors with that aged porn star look that Trump likes so much though.
Fox is sure in a pretty pickle on what to program. They’ve had Trump on how many hours a day over there?
If they start to slowly edge away some of their viewers will catch on. And besides how are they going to demean, harass, and vilify migrants if they don’t mention Donnie’s name? All those regulations he’s having rolled back, same problem. So who are they going to elevate?
So what this tells me is that either they think their audience is ready to turn on Trump or is dying off fast.
Well, now, FOX, I can tell you’re upset. Sit down, here’s a drink, let’s talk it out and I can be a kind of objective sounding board. Glad to help. Now: What are the chances he pulls things out and becomes a good and popular president who doesn’t totally fuck up constantly? Because if the odds of that are anywhere south of 51 percent, you know what you have to do. Take your time.
If he transfers to OANN then he’ll still lose viewers.
They havent been getting it from Trump lately.
They made him, and they can unmake him.
“This massive thing happened, and no one knows how to cover it,” the employee said.
Now I know this is a WAY out there idea, but you might … I don’t know… tell the fucking truth for a change!
I know. Crazy right?
This is definitely fake news.
Sean Hannity has friends?
But who will they advance? For 8 years it was Obama the villain, destroyer of the natural order, and did we tell you he was black. With Trump they had someone to crow for and not against.
“This massive thing happened, and no one knows how to cover it,” the employee said.
Perhaps I’m being naive, but I suspect this “how do we cover it” problem never presents itself to real journalists. You cover everything the same way: get the facts, study them, then organize and present them.
Maybe Fox… isn’t a news organization?
Could the Donald bring down FOX?
Yeah, that pivot is coming any day.
Well they will have to start on Warren, would be my guess.
If Trump goes down then there is Romney, Rubio, the other idiot from Fl, name is someplace in resesses of my mind.
Rick Scott is who I couldnt think of.
Just figuring that out?
Fox? Paul Ryan? Lachlan Murdoch? Sean Hannity? Donald Trump? They are ALL f_ckin’ snakes! I hope they eat one another!!
