Retired U.S. Navy SEAL Robert J. O’Neill, the man credited with killing Sept. 11 mastermind Osama bin Laden, has declared war on Fox News and the room full of anti-Trump “Clintonites” who called the 2020 election for President Joe Biden.Even though he reportedly currently works as a Fox News contributor, O’Neill has been relentlessly pummeling the network on Twitter.The first sign of beef appeared Monday, when he posted a tweet brazenly promoting one of Fox News’ top competitors, Newsmax.

After watching Fox News every night for twenty plus years, I just stopped, cold turkey, in late October of 2020. The BS got too deep Never went back, not once. Scroom.

Faux News' ratings haven't bounced back because of me, that's for sure. There are certainly other places one can go to get reliable news; there's no reason to keep propping up FN, even if they have a few good people left there. The way I see it, FN cancelled US first.

TK and I stopped watching Fox News ten years ago when they fired Glenn Beck for exposing Soros' Open Society Foundation and all its subsidiaries. Wow, those blackboard lectures were really something! I filled eight medium-sized spiral notebooks taking notes every show. That's where I first learned about Cloward-Piven and so much more. Who knows how he was harassed after his firing? It was known he had emotional problems and he seemed to go over the edge after the Fox firing. I'm sure the Deep State did a number on him so he would be discredited. He was too close to the truth. Fox News has been batting for the other team since long before November 3, 2020.

Eleven months since I've watched Fox News! Those skunks were responsible for Trump's highly illegal defeat. Cavuto and Wallace were and still are giddy with happiness with Paul Ryan clapping his hands together and grinning with glee in the corporate boardroom.

Fox is an example of how leftism destroys everything it touches. The execs at Fox are fine with their decline as long as they are able to drag their network to the left. I used to watch the network religiously, no more. If a news event pops up, I automatically go to the internet and never think to even turn on Fox News.

Cable changes make me pay for Fox, but give me Newsmax for free. There is a little known, little watched device called ''News Mix'' which pictures six news shows at once you can scroll sideways to view. I can tune in to watch that since Fox is one of the six inset screens, should I completely lose my mind.

According to the article, in defense of Faux News, Bret Bair disputed the early call and tweeted, "The decision desk called AZ w/ almost 80% of the vote in AFTER polls had closed." That is a blatant LIE! Years ago, I respected him, but now "Baghdad Bob" Bair is nothing but a commie-stooge, selling out America for his millions. And I wonder why Fox has a ban on voter fraud coverage - the only news story the deep state fears. Bair is clearly onboard with the deceit. And I still remember how Laura Ingraham, with signs of massive voter fraud everywhere, advised Trump to concede two days after the election. I wonder who ordered her to do that? O'Neil is a courageous American patriot and Faux News is corrupt. It's time to defund the media - America's number one enemy.

Just yesterday I noticed that Newsmax has been added to my channel lineup without extra charge. Good! As for FNC, I watched it from 1996 until Bret Baier's premature call of Arizona. For the next four months I turned off the news. Last spring my closest friend for 45 years, my brother of choice, urged me to turn Fox back on because some good people are there fighting the good fight: Maria Bartiromo, Jesse Waters, Greg Gutfeld, Molly Hemingway, and others. So I have gone back to some of my old haunts. My friend had more faith in America than I did. And he just died eight weeks ago. He was bringing me back into the fight. RIP, Charlie. I'll try to keep strong. Sometimes it's hard to go on.

Steve Hilton, Tucker Carlson, and Judge Jeanine Pirro are all good. Special Report sometimes tries a little too hard to be fair and balanced. Chris Wallace seems to have TDR. But, overall, I still like FOX News.

Trust me I get the anger with FOX. I still watch Tucker, Laura, Bongino and of course Levin. Perhaps I'm somewhat less bent because I never believed them to be my friend. I always saw them as "loose brick" marketers making coin by serving an under served market segment. We watch Newsmax and frankly I don't think they are my friend either. And we get the bucket and check out what MSNBC and CNN are spewing because we think it's important to know what kind if drivel our neighbors are consuming

Fox is the best of a bad lot. My biggest objection to the way they cover the news is the lightning speed they exhibit to get to the political ramifications of everything under the sun without having first laid out the facts of the matter at hand. COVID reporting was a prime example of how haste to get to the political angle effectively prevented them from reporting important facts. There never was a real pandemic, like cholera or bubonic plague, unless you count as elements of a pandemic fear, mangled statistics, and an epic case of totalitarian urge. A better Fox could have sorted this out all through 2020 instead of mindlessly scrolling “cases” where no illness ensued and “deaths” where 94% of the total were from comorbidity, not COVID itself. Really bad job by Fox that had the effect of reinforcing the fear porn that the other networks were peddling. On the other hand, the Fox News website is consistently right-leaning and makes a decent effort to cover complicated stories that take more than a TV sound bite to digest.

I actually quit watching Fox or should I say phasing them out in 2015 in the debates. When Trump was running for the candidacy of the party the way the Barbie Doll went after him. Then Fox went on their 'hooker look' for all the women it was all cleavage, hairstyling and lip gloss all the time. Meghan Kelly became an overpaid super star overnight for bashing Trump. That's when I started hating Fox. Motor mouth Hannity, Laura Ingraham, Brit Hume, Bret Bair except for Lou Dobbs when he was on couldn't make me watch Fox. Nov. 2020 was the death knell for Fox. It's NewsMax along with early morning Stewart Varney on FBN for stocks and gold prices then I change the channel. Fox is dead and gone in my house. I watch Tucker Carlson only on Youtube.

Rob O'Neill is right, Bret Baier is wrong or lying. Arizona was called very early - no way was 80% of the vote in yet. And FOXNews had a democrat in charge of the decision desk, Arnod Mishkin. I will forever believe Mishkin was the point man in the cabal behind all the fraud. The early AZ call was the message to the rest of this cabal to stop counting and start bringing in the fake ballots, begin the Dominion manipulation, and shut out Republican observers. I don't think Rob is going to work for FOX much longer, they don't tolerate anyone talking about the fraud in the 2020 election.

We're still angry at Fox for firing our beloved Lou Dobbs. Dobbs stood up for President Trump when the Board Room was trying to destroy him and he was fired for that. They couldn't take Dobbs fighting for DJT, their hatred for the president was that strong. Also, still angry at Fox for firing Trish Regan, Fox Busines, a very smart lady. She was terrific! She nailed it on what the Left/Commies were doing and the boys upstairs couldn't have that...a strong woman speaking Truth! We still watch Tucker who has been great lately in exposing corruption in the WH, FBI and DOJ. Bongino who is honest has a Saturday night program. Believe (friend suggested) Hannity has been pressured to not talk about the stolen election. So there are some righteous people at Fox, but because they would lose their jobs (money) they keep quiet. Sure sounds like Nazi Germany, Communist China, or Soviet Russia where if you said the wrong thing, you would lose your job, your home, your life. We have quislings reporting in this Country, if you deviate from the politically correct path. Quislings. Here we are back in a world war, citizen against citizen. How sad is that.

Brett Bair is lying. I remember when FOX called Arizona for Biden. It was early in the night and that was here in the East. There was no way Arizona had 80 percent of the vote in. No way. Everyone in my living room, all 10 of us leaped out of our chairs and couldn't believe they had the audacity to call Arizona as early as they did. We immediately turned off FOX and went to NewsMax. But, the damage had been done. The Trump campaign could never recover from that call both because it turned the trajectory of the race to Biden AND because FOX NEWS HAD DONE IT. That's why no other station called Arizona early. It was because this was all planned out ahead of time. No one will ever tell me otherwise. I've never like Brett Baier, even though our beloved angel Rush liked him. FOX News' decline started when Roger Ailes was ousted. That was the beginning of the end. It was Ailes's principles, hard work and vision that made FOX the powerhouse it was. The scum fat and happy democrat Murdoch family members ousted Ailes, tacked to the left and continue to ruin FOX. Thank God for Gutfeld. We watch Tucker and Gutfeld religiously and also Levin. We can take or leave the other nighttime hosts. We even stopped watching Varney after the FOX election debacle. So sad.

Millions of retirees will see a significant boost to their Social Security checks as the Biden administration gave its cost of living adjustment (COLA) the most significant boost in nearly 40 years. Social Security checks will raise 5.9%, about $92 for the average retired worker, in a shocking display of inflation. For the last 10 years, an inflation lull has led to checks that rise only 1.65% per year on average.The Social Security Administration has not raised benefits so drastically year-over-year since 1982. A typical retired worker will now receive $1,657 a month starting next year while a typical couple's benefits will rise $157 to $2,753 per month.

Years ago, journalists unhappy that their ideas drew no interest from their bosses were known to complain that “news is what happens to an editor’s wife.”The view is outdated, but the fundamental point remains intact. News gathering is not science, and judgments about which stories get covered are driven by the interests, experiences and prejudices of the people in charge of media organizations.Americans intuitively understand this as technology creates more options for them.
