I thnk Hell just froze over!

The Fox "news" Sewer aired Obama's address entirely, including chyrons such as "Obama: I hoped Trump would Rise To the Job and He Didn't".

Afterward, Bret Baiar (with that same chyron again) actually said "while Obama spoke the current occupant tweeted.. . . " and then showed MF45's rage-tweet!!

I nearly crapped myself laughing at that!

I think they know it is over and they need to get off the Trump Train, with the possible exception of Hannity and Carlson.

each night the resemblance of normality only lasted to the top of the hour. Then, the vile ***** rotten ***** **** Laura Ingraham started the usual Fox BS, along with convicted felon D'Nesh D'Ouchebag.

Fucker Carlson did his part also, for an hour preceding

Makes one wonder, he was visibly upset when Shep Smith was fired. And a few years ago he did apologize to Obama for the way he had to conduct the interview.

I expect a full-throated endorsement of OANN from MF45 very soon after the way Fox gave Obama fair coverage. They're also doing it with Kamala right now.

They're going to be kissing Republican butts every second of every minute. You will see absolutely zero honest objectivity then.

to see what they are doing. Generally, whatever lies du jour or what they are ignoring is telling. I don't know for sure why they've given this smidgen of decent coverage to parts of the DNC.

Maybe they can tell none of their regular brainwashed flock is watching at that time.

i wonder if segments like that shake him up at all, make him think. of course he probably took Obama's speech as a good time to take a shower or whatnot.

will be washed away by Fox & Freaks tomorrow morning.

Usually I hit "prev channel" within 3 seconds of switching to the Fox "news" Sewer. While saying 'go fuck yourselves'. I just wish they could hear me

Trump turning on them if he is re-elected. Trump will tear apart, if he can, any media empire if they dare speak ill of him (in other words, tell the truth), and that includes Fux news. If he amasses as much power as he wants, his appointees on the boards that govern communications can make them miserable.
