Fox News desperately needs new blood

Original Article

Posted By: FlyRight, 5/18/2023 7:29:19 AM

If the Drudge Report leak (see Peter Barry Chowka’s coverage of it here) about the new lineup at Fox News is correct, the network is stumbling very badly. Sticking with its existing talent (moving Hannity to Tucker’s old time slot) will not appease viewers angry over Tucker’s firing. The former viewers have made it clear that Hannity will not win them back. Megyn Kelly made this point and more on her popular podcast. Transcript via Grabien: Kelly: “Breaking news. Drudge Report is reporting right now that they have decided on what to do about their hemorrhaging 8:00 PM hour formerly occupied by Tucker Carlson.

I read they are thinking of moving Laura from prime time. She is the only one they have right now who is worth listening to! Fox has imploded on itself. Sad.

I got to the point where I couldn't stand Hannity anymore. Almost every show he had to emphasize that he wasn't criticizing the hard working everyday agents at the FBI, it was just the top brass he didn't like. Well, guess who executed all the mayhem, Sean! It wasn't just the top brass!

Why don't they give Sean a co-host. Oh I dunno - maybe Ainsley Earnhardt who is a complete ditz. NO to Sean and I haven't watched him in over a decade. Gutfeld - he's okay but do not understand the appeal of Kat Timpf. Fox is really going down the drain.

What's the point? As soon as any new person goes against the WEF line, they'll be fired, too. No, Fox has shown who they are--who could support them now?

When they got rid of Tucker because he was making the Murdochs and Chuck Schumer uncomfortable you have to assume that the rest of their talent are not doing that so they get to remain on the payroll. Reason enough to never trust any of them again.

I have not heard Hannity defend FBI field agents for awhile. Did he reform, or have I missed his recent comments about the bureau?

Nothing will replace Tucker except Tucker's return. To their credit, Fox has a better overall group of people than any other network but would benefit by dropping the deadbeats like Geraldo and Juan. Jimmy Failla is getting better all the time. Hannity will always be Hannity. Still won't watch after their big insult to the viewers.

My wife leaves the Fox News channel running all day on the big television, and I really don't like that because I can't stand to watch Neil Cavuto and she really isn't watching him either. That means the occasional popular program by someone like Greg Gutfeld or The Five will boost the ratings of the rest of the programming.

As if Hannity wasn't already annoying enough, the live-audience pep-rally shows are a joke. In the beginning, the novelty of attractive, intelligent, and congenial females (Heather Nauert, Trish Regan, Patty Ann Browne, Laurie Dhue, Linda Vester, et al) was appealing. These days, only ditzy blondes need apply. Nothing to add beyond their coiffure. (The one exception: Sandra Smith.)

Fox needs to face the fact that it is a lot more than Tucker Carlson. I have lost faith in the content of Fox News, which is censored and mellowed down to appease the left. I like the straight up truth. Don't waste my time with narrative.

If Fox is attempting to pander/appease the left and bring them in as new viewers, I don't think that play will be successful for them. I have lost count of the lefties in my community who submit letters to my local paper and begin their letters by mocking "those stupid and ignorant Fox viewers who only tune in because Fox tells them only what they want to hear". IOW Fox viewers are afraid of "THE TRUTH". These people are part of the Maddow/Reid cult; It'll be a very long time if ever that they tune into Fox.

#14 lives about twenty miles north of me. (I'm in northern Pinellas County.) Same as #18, Spectrum is also my cable provider. OANN is not available, but Newsmax is. Sunday Morning with Maria Bartiromo is all I watch on Fox. Now I mostly watch Newsmax.

I didn't often agree with Tucker and his contrarian views. Nor did I think much of his guests. But his show was almost always interesting. Even the space aliens. And I miss it. As for the rest of the primetime crew...Hannity, Watters, Laura, Gutfeld...none are worth my time. Except for Kat Timpf... funny and sexy. Wish Fox would give her her own show.

Instead of parking that huge Megan Kelly quote and video at the top of this article, Lifson could have made better use of bandwidth by just putting in a link to the interview of Roger Ailes' widow, Elizabeth with Eric Bolling last night. Lucky for you, it will air again tonight. (If you really do miss Rush as I do, there's a great candid photo of Mr. and Mrs. Ailes with Rush on the Newsmax site.)

US House members probing the COVID pandemic fired off a letter Friday to disgraced former Gov. Andrew Cuomo demanding he testify about why he sent coronavirus patients to nursing homes during the height of outbreak. House members previously sent five similar letters to the ex-New York governor, to which he did not respond. “Your testimony is important to uncover the circumstances and policies which led to the death of more than 15,000 New York nursing home residents during your tenure,” wrote Rep. Brad Wenstrup (R-Ohio), chairman of the GOP-controlled House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic, in the panel’s latest missive to Cuomo. “The victims’ families deserve to know the truth.

U.S. military officials are walking back claims that a recent strike in Syria killed an influential al-Qaeda figure, following assertions by the dead man’s family that he had no ties to terrorists but was a father of 10 tending to his sheep when he was slain by an American missile. Lotfi Hassan Misto, 56, whose family identified him as the victim of a Hellfire missile attack on May 3, was a former bricklayer who lived quietly in this town in northwest Syria, according to interviews with his brother, son and six others who knew him. They described a kind, hard-working man whose “whole life was spent poor.”

A printer error in Nassau County, New York turned every registered voter in the county Democrat. The printer reportedly botched over 976,000 voter registration cards and labeled every voter in the county Democrat. Republicans make up over 60% of registered voters in Nassau County which left many Conservatives in the county feeling absolutely blindsided by the error. Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman told NBC 4 News “We’re already starting to get phone calls from people, saying ‘I’m a registered Republican, I’m a registered Conservative – how come I’m being identified as a Democrat? Who changed my registration?’ And they’re quite upset about it.”

Back in 2016, ahead of the presidential elections, the FBI suddenly dropped FOUR investigations into Hillary Clinton and the Clinton Foundation, according to the Durham report. Special Counsel John Durham on Monday released his final report concluding the FBI had no verified intel when it opened the Crossfire Hurricane investigation into Trump in 2016. Durham blasted Hillary Clinton for her “plan to stir up a scandal against US Presidential candidate Donald Trump by tying him to Putin and the Russians’ hacking of the Democratic National Committee.”

The FBI had at least four open criminal investigations into Hillary and Bill Clinton that were suddenly dropped in the months before the 2016 presidential election, special counsel John Durham’s recently released report shows. The bombshell report released by Durham — which concluded that the bureau’s probe into former President Donald Trump’s alleged collusion with Russia was “seriously flawed” — also shed light on the quashed probes. The feds had been looking into claims that foreign countries and other individuals were trying to influence the Clintons through donations to their namesake non-profit and Hillary’s presidential campaign.

Montana's ban is the most restrictive measure on TikTok, which is owned by a Chinese tech company, in the United States. It is scheduled to take effect on Jan. 1, 2024, and is expected to be challenged in court. "Today, Montana takes the most decisive action of any state to protect Montanans' private data and sensitive personal information from being harvested by the Chinese Communist Party," Gianforte said in a statement.

While the Durham Report was not criminal, one woman is responsible for this "crime." Her name is Hillary Clinton and we know her story. I agree with Victoria Taft: Durham wrote the “Clinton Plan” was conceived to distract from her very real and very illegal destruction of evidence -- her emails -- which were under a preservation order. “According to the declassified Clinton Plan intelligence, on July 26, 2016, Clinton allegedly approved a proposal from one of her foreign policy advisors to tie Trump to Russia as a means of distracting the public from her use of a private email server.”

The latest to attempt that is far-left congressional squad member, Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO). Bush has glommed onto an idea that is certainly not new and is hugely unpopular with roughly half the country. But Bush has decided to give it the old college try and float it once again.

Worried about too much systemic rigging and fraud for a Republican ever to win office again? Good news! The riggers themselves are quietly starting to worry it may happen. Politico ran a story on Friday, and I must say, the title quickened my pulse. Tellingly titled, “Hurricane Trump Is Coming — And Washington Hasn’t Bothered to Prepare,” the story ran with the subhead, “After 2020, reformers vowed to erect guardrails against a rogue chief executive. They ran into a wall of complacency, partisanship and distraction.” As if Leftists would have done a single thing to curtail executive overreach while they held office. Puh-lease.

Biden's Energy Department on Monday announced its intention to purchase up to three million reserve barrels as a "continuation" of the president's "replenishment strategy." So far, however, that "strategy" has seen the Democrat fail to purchase a single barrel of reserve oil.

'I'm looking at the 14th Amendment as whether or not we have the authority,' he said at a press conference in Hiroshima. 'I think we have the authority. The question is could it be done and invoked in time that it would not be appealed and, as a consequence, pass the date in question and still default on the debt?'
