That foxy old devil knows he has them by their dangling spheroids.
Trump is going down like a lead turd on the planet Jupiter, and Rupert is hardly giving a thought to hiring a "Fixer" to pay him off for feeling used like a discarded bimbo or a betrayed trophy wife.
Fox Doesnât Need to Fear Trumpâs Wrath
The cable behemothâs audience yowled after the network seemed insufficiently supportive of the presidentâs electoral hopes.
But Foxâs hold on crackpot newsâand viewersâis secure.
Fox News Channel, the devilish invention of Rupert Murdoch and Roger Ailes, rules the commanding heights of conservative broadcast news! It cannot be displaced! It is the tail that wags the dog of the Republican Party! The network that bolsters the Trump presidency and the essential source of news that issues hourlyâand often untruthfulâmarching instructions for Americaâs populist-right millions!
But then came Election Night 2020. Foxâs coverage earned it Judas status among Trumpâs most ardent supporters. The network's crimes of betrayal and heresy? It was first to call Arizona for Joe Biden. In the following days, Fox joined the consensus projection that Biden was the winner of the election and show-host Laura Ingraham and co-host Brian Kilmeade drew criticism from the right for meekly allowing that a Biden presidency might be in the offing. Tucker Carlson, as Trumpie as a Trumpie can get without being a member of the family, earned damnation for doubting the berserk election-fraud theories of then-Trump attorney Sidney Powell...
As Biden moves into the White House and the election fraud story turns to vapor, we can expect Fox to reclaim most of its defecting audience by going full-bore against Biden with its superior production values and much more talented news and opinion anchors.

Crank media is most profitable when it whines about those in power, not when it acts like a bobblehead dummy in a magnitude nine earthquake.
