An Open Letter to Rupert Murdoch and Fox News

Dear Mr. Murdoch and Fox News,

I'll admit, I have loathed your network since it's inception and much of what your talking heads spout is utter nonsense. Normally easily laughed off but this isn't funny any longer. The future of our very nation is at stake following today's debacle in Helsinki by the obvious traitor in the White House. That fact could not be more clearly made than by to days lapdog performance of Mr. Trump alongside Mr. Putin, throwing our very nation under the bus in favor of a known butcher/dictator. Trump is indeed a traitor to the United States of America and must be removed, the sooner the better.


To do so though, we need your help. I'm not asking you or your network to help elect Democrats. What I am asking is that you put enormous pressure on current Republicans in the House, Senate and Supreme Court, to finally denounce and stand up to Donald J Trump. Your on air personalities must be shouting from the mountains to your viewers the danger of keeping this treasonous traitor in the White House.

You see Sir, by his words, not only has he besmirched the service of our current intel and justice department, he has slandered the good names of any man or woman that has ever served our nation from the American Revolution to the ongoing conflict in Afghanistan, especially those that paid the ultimate price; Their very lives for our freedom. These men and women did not sacrifice their lives for the current state of affairs that plague our nation in the form of Mr. Trump.

The very future of our great nation now stands at a dangerous precipice, The Republic our Founding Fathers established in 1776 or slipping into an autocracy at the hands of Putin's chosen Puppet.


Your news network among your many media outlets hold sway over hundreds of millions of unwitting conservatives that use you for their sole source of news and opinions. That is why I am reaching out to you. The time is now to undo the damage done, to educate your viewers and readers as to the very serious dangers our nation faces should this man be permitted to continue as President of the United States.


The time is now, we cannot afford to wait any longer. Excuses, alternate facts and spin must end. Educate your viewers and readers and turn the tide with the demise of this wanna be dictator and anyone involved in this farce. Embrace freedom Sir, both yours, mine and hundreds of millions of Americans hang in the balance. Mr. Putin put the soccer ball in Mr. Trumps hands today, now the ball is in your hands and the world is watching!

But Ailes set up FOX to be a far right network. Balance and actual reporting are not really in the equation.

Given all that has been revealed about Trump, one suspects that his core supporters are deaf to everything that Trump does not himself admit.

And Hillary was polite in calling them deplorables, I'd have chosen much worse
