Fox News continues to insult its audience. This time, the insults came from Kristin Fisher, who was speaking from either ignorance or malice when she attacked Rudy Giuliani after Trump’s legal team gave a press conference. (snip) The conference was essentially a preview of coming attractions. In a trial, first you tell your story, then you prove your story, and then you summarize your story. The legal team is at Phase One.
That didn’t stop Kristin Fisher from proving that she’s a lousy listener and is staggeringly ignorant about how the American legal system works.
Who thinks they care? When in a war little consideration is given to anything except destroying the enemy. As Fox WAS the enemy it is being destroyed per their plan.
OANN or Newsmax. .

Whatever happened to Fox News' "We report, you decide?" Rush. Nielsen ratings have NEWSMAX TV going from 58,000 viewers, 7-10 pm, M-F, to 568,00 viewers. Haven't watched Fox in years.

In the daytime (on the west coast) Harris Faulkner’s Overtime program is the only one we watch even a bit of. She seems to be a really decent woman - raised in a military family, married to a man who is white - who maintains balance even though she is saddled with Fox’s dopey Power Panels that always include a rabid lefty. Other persons we even liked at times, like Bill Hemmer, have now become unwatchable. They are clearly programmed with a strong “or else!” included. Tucker even went madly off the reservation last night. We turned him off.
We are watching old movies from TCM. Brit crime dramas. Can’t even watch local news anymore.

Kristin Fisher was brashly, rashly out of line yesterday. Makes John Roberts look like a diplomat. Her only claim to fame is that her parents were both astronauts when she was born. She is a young harpy.

Afterthought: As dumb as Kristin is, you’d think they’d nab her for the View… whether stupid or malicious, or both, she’d fit right in.

Fox is gone from my house. But I hope they are happy with being JUST LIKE the other alphabits. Indistinguishable.

Geraldo said the same thing on Kilmeade's radio show this morning. Basically, forget about it, take the loss, let the cheaters get off.. But I think you actually present the evidence in court, not before a national audience. I'm surprised Rivera didn't know that. Fisher's not an attorney, so I think she was just repeating what she hears, probably from Fox management.

I very much miss the "original" FOX, but am deeply into my 100% boycott, including their articles and any video they put on youtube. I do, however, indulge in reading about their travails in the ratings wars. Used to schedule my evening around being there at 8pm promptly to see Tucker, and probably missed that the most. But, from what I read of last night's recap, I can easily wave bye-bye as he disappears in my rearview mirror. And now it looks like the precious, tiny, adorable, nun-like, excruciatingly fair (just ask her), virginal Dana is casting off whatever restraints she wore after her Jeb got deep-sixed.
Anyone have a take on what's going on with Gutfeld and Jesse? Not asking for a friend....asking for myself. ;)

It’s amazing how these pundits and other left wingers parse every word and phrase uttered by a Republican. Anyway, remember what Trump said back in 2016. You don’t tell your enemy what your plans are! Remember that? Trump and his people are letting stuff out in cribs and drabs to troll the idiots. As someone said to me many years ago, “Never say never!”

I think a lot of people are ignorant about eye-witness testimony. And Rudy Giuliani stressed this in the briefing. A signed affidavit is direct evidence. In the age of everyone having a camera in their pocket, perhaps many think someone's word counts as nothing in a court. But people have gone to jail for life or even been executed based solely on eye-witness testimony. And according to Giuliani, they have *hundreds* of signed affidavits.

I keep seeing comments about Powell supposedly not showing evidence to Tucker.
No matter how important he believes himself to be, Tucker is not SCOTUS or one of the state supreme courts.
She'll show "evidence in court, but her accusations have been very clear. If she's wrong, Dominion should easily be able to counter them in the same court of public opinion that Powell is being tried in.
And Fox without Trump, as being presented today, is called CNN.

Very hard to keep to my NO FOX Rule today! I sat down with my Coffee and tuned to Newsmax (which I get through UTube) and it's off the Air for at least an Hour (when I gave up and turned off the TV). Then at 10:00 I tuned to Steve Bannon's Pandemic and he spent an hour yelling at me (and all his other viewers) to man up, quit whining and grow up! So, off he went! That leaves me with nowhere to go! I do miss FOX! But, I will not weaken! I guess I will watch Hallmark!

These newsies are getting paid fabulous sums of money and have wild perks. So what if you have to sell your soul to live large? They'll do anything to keep that gravy train rolling. When one quits and explains that their conservative beliefs are in conflict with the message the network wants to now push, I'll respect them then only. Tucker Carlson, you listening?

Doesn't hurt to have a good AM/FM/WX radio ( like just about any CCrane model ) for the times when you can't get TV or internet. Don't know what I'd do without my "Pocket CC".

Why anybody still watches that trash pit of a network is beyond me. I ditched them in late 2001 after the sensationalism and yelling at each other got to be too much. I don't watch any tv news now.
I heard Dana Perino (grade a bushie) bashed PDT esterday, and then Tucker did his his thing last night which upset a lot of people. I've always liked Tucker, but I'm not picking him over our Sydney. At any rate, their ratings are down over 30% overall and in ratings month. Good job, Murdoch boys.

Now that we have Newsmax via our Roku box, we no longer watch Faux, unless it is the Judge, Gutfeld or maybe Lou and Maria. That is a whole lot of empty hours of nobody watching the rest. Tucker is just the latest to show off his arrogance to his viewers. I hope this all blows up in Paul Ryan's face, as the main reason he is on the board is to make sure Trump's reelection was damaged beyond repair. Watching Dana in her democrat white uniform on election night was the final straw for me. She is a true globalist Bushie.

Being a babe may land you a position at Fox but it won't keep you there if you don't speak on the same plane as the viewers. If they want CNN or MSNBC caliber viewers that's fine but I won't be present.

Four 4 years.....I don't recall Fisher & other so called media saying Schiff, Nadler, Mueller were less than truthful, baseless, colorful, bold, alleged, light on facts...Fox is beyond repair...

Don't like Fox News, turn it off. It really is that simple. The rest is noise.

You don't have to show your evidence to the so-called press, you present it in court. How can she characterize it as a baseless claim, when the evidence hasn't been presented yet? Just report the facts, lady, and keep your opinions to yourself.

I have a simple formula that works for now. With TV stories and articles here, if it says "President Elect Biden", it gets turned off. He isn't the president elect of anything, except in the eyes of the media.

Something is going on about which we are not aware. That said, the bar has been lowered for our overlords; female, homo, third worlders. Our Fathers would be ashamed of us.
