Pres.Trump better leave Fox news alone. They are playing all kinds of manipulating games. They are trying to make sure that Pres.Trump doesn't associate with Louis Farrakhan. But they still have those Dems that has been spreading hate speech and lies. But it is okay for them to choose who they want to come on their show.
Last month after Donald Trump watched Fox News lob what he called "softball questions" at a Democratic lawmaker, the US president delivered a crisp smackdown of his favorite network: "Fox sure ain't what it used to be."
After years of often fawning coverage by Fox, particularly from its pro-Trump anchors like Sean Hannity, the commander in chief appears to be tilting his media gaze toward a younger, more right-wing rival, cable outfit One America News Network (OANN).
The small upstart broadcaster was launched only recently, in 2013, by technology millionaire Robert Herring, who sought a more conservative alternative to mainstream media behemoths like CNN.
Today it seeks to outfox Fox by drawing extra attention from Trump, who has been voicing his displeasure with the ratings leader over everything from presidential polling to its hosting of Democratic candidate town halls.
Last week in a tweet to his 63 million followers, the president managed to disparage Fox and his mainstream news foil CNN, while heaping praise on the new object of his media affection.

"Watching Fake News CNN is better than watching Shepard Smith, the lowest rated show on @FoxNews. Actually, whenever possible, I turn to @OANN!" Trump posted.
Is Trump's love affair with Fox News fading?
Unhappy with recent polls from the network showing the incumbent would lose the 2020 election to the top Democratic contenders, Trump trashed Fox News. He even made a vague 2020 debate threat saying, “I’m the one that calls the shots”, a suggestion some pundits see as a veiled attempt to warn the network they may be left out in the cold during the presidential election season.
