On faux no less. Just wow. Guess they don't want to be an outlier with Breitbart. Wonder if they'll keep it up?

He's really an oddity over there, isn't he! A true odd-man-out. He sure has built a track record for wandering off the reservation at that God-forsaken network. I'm surprised they keep him, or that he seems to want to stay.

since they fired most of the management I can't imagine who he has the goods on to keep his job.

I haven't seen it for a few years. Three of them were praising this as a win for Trump.

Dana Perino was reserved and Juan Williams did his usual schtick.

The media is all in this together, like it or not.

There comes a point, and we are definitely at that point, where the lies become so blatant, and the behavior so outrageous, that any
outlet that considers themselves serious journalists will have to call it out.

The rest are all fake. One of Alex Jones' lizard people told him so.

I expect this from Shepard Smith. I don't watch fox-bs. I don't have cable any longer, and I LOVE IT! I do have it in my apartment in Mexico, and I often tune in just to raise my blood pressure a bit, but more so to keep an eye on the lies and bull shit that are being pumped into the weak minds of Americans and ALL people around the world. It is TRULY the propaganda network for the fascist right wing nut balls.

They should pull their best people off the White House and put interns there with canned questions. Maybe even coordinate what question they want to yell at him as he leaves the stage after not calling on any reputable news outlet.

You can't just abandon the White House Press Room. If you do, you might not ever get back in.

Trump doesn't understand the difference between running an election campaign and actually being president.

When a president attacks and insults the press it never ends well for you

...at FOX. I wonder how long his contract lasts... can't imagine FOX keeping Smith, but he will have many lucrative options.
