[Jackson]

Fox's attempt to demote Trump with "gotcha" questions and pitting candidates against him last night didn't work.

The result of Aile's and the moderator's work was to give him more air time, less time devoted to other candidates and negative press for Fox. Here's the morning headlines:

And what was a side effect? Other candidates were shortchanged. The Golden Opportunity to get on the radar with the first debate is lost on Trump. The viewers might have enjoyed the fireworks, but serious voters would have like to hear more from the candidates they didn't know much about.

The first debate, the candidates who didn't make the cut made the most of their opportunities and Carly Fiorna came out as the winner. That's what happens when there is no agenda on the part of the "News" station. The rest of the candidates should be upset at last night's antics by Fox News.

 

[Jackson]

Since the secret (not!) agenda of Fox to dismantle Trump didn't work but all of the press is about him. Are there any posters out there that thought another candidate came off well? I liked Carly, where everyone had a chance to talk about what they would do as president.

Fox News had an agenda. It was clearly all about attacking Trump. And to promote its network personalities. It was much more about Fox News than it was about the Candidates.

You're right. I think it will backfire. I went on Facebook after the debate and the comments were devastating for Fox. I don't even recall a positive comment for Fox. They were claiming they'd never watch Fox again and how unfair it was to Trump and the other candidates.

Fox News made it all about Fox News. And it has worked so far. It had its highest ratings ever. But the over-the-top attacks on Trump were noted. Fox News better be very careful not to alienate the people who've always been there to support it. If it loses the core, it's all done.

Good that the ratings were so high last night. The viewing audience witnessed the most unprofessional display of interaction with candidates than I have ever seen. They lost me as a viewer and according to Facebook last night, I am not the only one.

I'd like to see a pack of Dems treated that way, but, no way they would ever enter a real debate or forum.

Not many options out there. Fox has made a living promoting itself as the Non-Liberal/Communist News Network. They've hooked millions on that concept. But clearly it's moving to the Left a bit. Trying to expand its audience i guess. But it's a dangerous gamble. If it loses the core audience, it could fade quickly. It better be careful.

 

[Jackson]

Fifty two percent for Trump! See how the public reacted to that disgusting display of journalism?

But where will these zombies and drones going to go? The establishment has a monopoly. Remember, they don't know how to form a coherent thought on their own. They get home from school and work, and flick on the TV, they are propaganda junkies. They need their fix. Where are they going to turn?

I don't know, record ratings makes a guy like Ailes very happy. I think it's just another case of Conservative Republicans being duped again. Just like with Boehner and McConnel, they think they're getting one thing, but they're really getting something else.

Fox News is playing em the same way. In the end, Fox wants a Big Government Globalist just as much as CNN, NBC, and the rest of the Communist/Progressive Media want.

Naw. . . . its not about a "left/right" paradigm. It's about a globalist paradigm. Trump wasn't a member of the establishment. He was going on about ideas and policies that weren't approved by the CFR or the Federal Reserve. He stances on trade and immigration were not orthodoxy, thus, he had to go.
