Fox News whisperer Sherman: network is collapsing on Trump: 'Fox can't stay on the talking points'

[Quixote1818]

Sharing a clip of Fox News legal analyst Andrew Napolitano breaking the news to the Fox & Friends hosts that Donald Trump did indeed break the law, an MSNBC panel focused on the conservative network’s coming break-up with the president as his legal woes worsen.

In particular, AM Joy host Joy Reid reveled in the fact that there appears to be widening fractures in the relationship between Trump and his favorite cable network.

“Are we seeing sort of a disturbance in the force?” Reid quipped to MSNBC contributor Gabriel Sherman. “Some people at Fox can’t stay on the talking points.”

“I love in the clip where Steve Doocy was shocked,” Sherman laughed. “He was like — there was like a glitch in the Matrix and suddenly like truth came through and he said, ‘What crime had he committed?'”

4. Oh, is the honeymoon over?

Are the bigwigs over at FAUX feeling the financial pinch of supporting the most corrupt person in history to occupy the White House? Trump better realize that if he looses FAUX he is going to lose support from the network's lemming viewers. That won't be pretty. I guess Melanie will have to ratchet up soothing her deplorable spouse's nerves.

5. They are too deeply invested in the lies, especially Hannity.

They will not wave the white flag until the fucking moron is already wearing an orange jumpsuit, his fake tan has faded and his "hair" is finally in its natural state of being grey and bald.

[Volaris]

6. They won't wave that flag then, either. What they WILL do,

Is point out that he used to be a 'liberal' Democrat, and that the dirty con he was running, was convincing the sheep that he was ever a republican...because really real Republicans would NEVER do what he did to us and to murica, so we had better make sure the next candidate is much more better are being a really real conservative (so vote for Ted cruz).

Mark my words, they'll disown him by calling him a new york liberal elite (they're all grifters and conmen that hate America).

13. Bravo!

That's what I been saying. Fox hasn't broken from he, no Repeblican has broke away since a few did in 2016.

You will know when they have broken only when you hear them begin calling him a Democrat.

And not before then.

It happened to W his last year. His approval percentage were contantly in the 20's. And then the economic meltdown occurred. I saw many R's say he his policies were always that of a Democrat. And he was really just a Democrat and always had been.

Honestly I thought that I would see some do the same to Trump by now.

7. The Dept. of Truth turns on Big Brother?

Hard to imagine. But if so, then the Republican's Orwellian "1984" may be starting to crumble.

8. I expected Trump to name Hannity as Chief of Staff

Might happen yet?

9. I want to see Steve Doocy cry

10. I think Fox will bail on him.

Rupert is 87 years old and his sons are not going to want to see the whole network go down the drain over the thing in the white house. I don't watch television, but most Americans do and this network has come as close to destroying as anything in our hisory since the Civil War, In the southern states before the civil war they banned books and newspapers that didn't accept the pro-slavery dogma of the South and this cultural heritage still hangs on in both their education syystem, the press and their culture.But, of course even if you can control what people say you can't control waht they think. In my view Fox just took the same strategy nationwide by demonizing those with other opinions and spewing hatred. It's just a revamped "damned Yankees." As far as I'm concerned Rupert, the anti-immigration immigrant and racist should be candidate for deportation for his crimes against democracy. I might get the last laugh if I outlive the evil old coot. Meanwhile it seems to be that his sons want to change the network if for no ther reason than their main audience is not the best demographic for selling ads. Some giving them some credit for not being as crazy as their dad, but money is the main thing in all businesses.
