During his Nationally syndicated radio program yesterday, The Godfather of Conservative Talk Radio, Rush Limbaugh, said…
You do not turn on your base. You do not turn on your audience, unless you’ve had some kind of — you just don’t — you don’t do it for the sake of the approval of your enemies. You don’t turn on the people who got you where you are because you would rather be friends with other people. You just don’t do it. And that appears to be what’s happened here.
We’ve got Donna Brazile all over the place. We’ve got everybody on a talking head interview, half of them or more are New York Times or Washington Post Democrat media people. The Arizona call. Some even think the Chris Wallace debate think is an anti-Trump move. But, you know, throughout all of this, the media can’t turn talk radio, can they? The media has been desperate to blow up talk radio and Fox News. They’ve wanted to blow up Fox News ever since Fox News was founded and created. And they’ve wanted to blow talk radio up since before that.
They’ve wanted to destroy me and my character and that of anybody else who hosts a talk radio program. Why is it do you think — it looks like they may be having some success now in blowing up Fox. I mean, you’ve got the wife of one of the Murdoch brothers tweeting out: We did it, we did it, we got rid of Trump, we did it. It was Lachlan Murdoch’s wife. So it looks like they may be succeeding in turning portions of Fox against its base.
Let me tell you something, folks. If the people running Fox succeed in destroying the distinction that Fox has from the rest of the media, they’re gonna destroy Fox. If they are successful in taking away from Fox the things that distinguish it and make it appear different from the rest of the Drive-By Media, what do you think’s gonna happen?
Neil Cavuto did not pay attention to Rush’s sage advice.

In its latest move to defend its call of the election for Democrat Joe Biden, Fox News cut away from Kayleigh McEnany and the Trump campaign’s press briefing Monday outlining evidence of election and voter fraud.
“Woah, woah, woah, I think we have very clear: She is charging that the other side is welcoming fraud and welcoming illegal voting,” Fox News host Neil Cavuto said as the network cut away from the briefing. “Unless she has more details to back that up, I can’t in good countenance continuing showing you this.
“Maybe they do have something to back that up, but that’s an explosive charge to make that the other side is effectively rigging and cheating.”
Its reason: Voter fraud cannot be verified? And then they cut away from the actual work to verify voter fraud.
“Unlike our opponents, we have nothing to hide,” McEnany told reporters in prescient comments as Fox News cut away from it, angering some viewers. You can watch the news briefing in its entirely from C-SPAN.
The briefing called out the duplicity in the media for failing to look into voter fraud with the claim voter fraud is “unsubstantiated.”
“We are fighting for the rights of all Americans to have faith and confidence not only in this election, but in the many elections to come,” McEnany told reporters. “There is only one party in America that opposes voter ID. One party in America that opposes verifying signatures, citizenship, residency, eligibility.
“There is only one party in American trying to keep observers out of the count room. And that party, my friends, is the Democrat Party.
“You don’t take these positions because you want an honest election. You don’t oppose an audit of the vote, because you want an accurate count. You don’t oppose our efforts at sunlight and transparency because you have nothing to hide.
“You take these positions because you are welcoming fraud and you are welcoming illegal voting.
“Our position is clear: We want to protect the franchise of the American people. We want an honest, accurate, lawful count. We want maximum sunlight. We want maximum transparency. We want every legal vote to be counted, and we want every illegal vote to be discarded.”
Those who run Fox News are as determined as a squadron of Japanese Kamikazes to crash and burn once was the most popular cable news channel in America in order to please their new Democratic Party Masters.
Fox New’s complete embracing of a failed political ideology does not make any sense.
Like Rush said, “What do you think is going to happen?”
Just like when Liberals tried to counter the boom in Conservative Talk Radio brought about by the success of Rush Limbaugh, when the came up with the horrible Air America radio network, the braintrust at Fox News is in for a very rude awakening.
The majority of Americans are still Conservative and do not want to be lectured to all day long.
They want their news to be, pardon the phrase, fair and balanced.
Not Liberal and didactically unhinged.
While Roger Ailes may have been a lecherous old man, he knew what average Americans wanted in a Cable News Channel….and it certainly wasn’t Liberal Propaganda.
Fox News jumped the shark like Arthur Fonzarelli when they prematurely called the state of Arizona for JOe Biden way too early.
And, then to start exhibiting disdain toward the Conservative average Americans who made them what they are, is the biggest programming mistake since the Rosie O’Donnell Variety Show.
Once all of this fraud which is being discovered in the battleground states is rectified and President Donald J. Trump is declared the winner, Fox News is going to find themselves just like the Emperor who thought that he was wear new clothes…exposed to the public and totally embarrassed.
They will join a lot of their fellow Liberals who believed themselves to be smarter than everybody else.
They should have been more well-read.
