Bret Baier Deletes Tweet that Exposed Exploding Backlash Against Fox News
2020-11-10
[Breitbart] The Fox News Channel’s Bret Baier has deleted a tweet that proved the backlash against the disgraced cable news network has exploded.

On Saturday, yours truly wrote about how the backlash against Fox News hit Defcon 1. To backfill my case, I specifically focused on the withering responses to an innocuous tweet posted by Fox’s Special Report anchor Bret Baier...

#14  The heirs are woke. And Dad was never very conservative. He palled around with the Clintons for decades.

#13  Murdoch sons (and their wives) and others have put Fox on a path of self-destruction.
Why watch a lukewarm version parroting MSNBC / CNN talking points when you can watch the original? They had a "market niche" and killed it dead.

#12  Murdoch sons (and their wives) and others have put Fox on a path of self-destruction. They shot themselves in both feet by p!ssing off their audience. They have become MSNBC/CNN/NBC/ABC/CBS/NPR and thus diluted their audience bigly. There used to be a saying: "Keep your pecker out of the cash register (don't fool around with the employees)." The saying ought to be modified to say "Keep your politics out of the cash register" as well.

#11  Food Network is just reruns of multiple Guy Fieri shows.

Throw in a beat Bobby Flay occasionally

#10  I haven't paid for TV content in almost five years. Whenever I had to endure a sales pitch for a CATV or DirecTV bundle, I used to say "If you can sell me just Food Network, Velocity (Speed channel) and Turner Classic Movies, I'd consider it." Of course, they can't offer that, so they just shrug. Now that the classic movies are being butchered or censored for PC Wokeness purposes, I would be down to just two channels.

#7  Fox has steadily become just a tabloid outfit, alternating between 'OMG did you see what this celebrity said on Twitter' and 'OMG did you see what CNN said' which is what they think the rubes in conservative land what to read.
Now they've just bet the house on a Biden administration. In the age of Trump, masks fall easily.

#4  ^Everybody in Fox are, a bit, long in the tooth - and they didn't age gracefully.

#3  And they're not allowed to cho after Soros or the laptop from hell, either.

Once OAN or Newsmax build up a big enough war chest, they'll hire what's left of Fox.
