Fox News is toast.....hopefully

On election night, Fox News called Arizona for Biden prematurely with still 900 000 votes to be counted.

Fox employed Arnon Mishkin to head of Fox's decision desk. When the Fox host Bret Baier asked Mishkin if he was sure Arizona would go to Biden, Mishkin answered Biden was 'most likely' to win the state. PS. Mishkin is a registered Democrat and almost certainly voted for Biden, so what was Fox doing having a fox in the chicken coop?? 

From American Thinker:

There are two problems with this call (LL -by Mishkin).  First, you don't call it when it is still in statistical probability.  The word "most likely" means that the chance is less than 100%.  You call a state for one candidate when it is mathematically impossible for the other candidate to catch up.

Secondly, when Mishkin and his team were deliberating whether to make the call for Biden or not, the percentage of the votes counted was most likely still about 60% or so. 

The premature call on Arizona for Biden was like a lifeline to the Biden campaign's falling hope on the Election Night. Trump was leading and seemingly in the driving seat to win again.

The swing states then announced they would seize counting for the day and resume counting in the morning - something never done before. At the time of counting being halted, Trump was leading in all the states. However, by the next morning, Biden had taken the lead.....

And so the steal was in..... Hundreds of thousands of votes for Biden magically appeared overnight, either via the Dominion voting machines, or boxes of ballots. How do we know this was orchestrated and the election stolen? Well, various statisticians have analysed the voting data and found it statistically impossible that Biden could get hundreds of thousands of votes and Trump almost nothing from the 'late/delayed counting' and newly found ballots.

Joe Biden didn't have to leave his basement and campaign to 'win' the election. The fix was in. They already had their path to victory worked out.

And don't underestimate the role Covid played in helping Biden to hide the lack of interest in his campaigning. When Trump was pulling in 50,000 people to his rallies, Biden was speaking to empty circles - and the press were blaming 'Covid' for the snooze fest. Covid was also used to push to mail-in ballots - which is easier to manipulate/destroy, due to no accountability.

Trump supporters have turned on Fox News as a result of the early Arizona call. Had Fox News not called Arizona so early, the Dems wouldn't have had an easy path to victory. They would have had to work very hard to steal the vote, seeing as Trump had surprised everyone with a record 74 million votes. Biden ostentatiously received 80 million - wink, wink. 

The Fox News wonderous 3 Amigo evening lineup stars Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity and Laura Ingram have been haemorrhaging viewers since - and I am one of them. I only watched Tucker on Fox, but when he turned on Trump after Trump questioned the election results, that was it for me. I have never switched on Tucker since. 

I have moved to Newsmax (only Greg Kelly and to a lesser extent Grant Stinchfield). There is also One America News Network as another option. 

During the fake Russia Gate investigation into Trump, Sean Hannity kept promising that any day now... any day...... tick tock he repeatedly warned.... that everything would come out and Trump would be exonerated. We are still waiting for all those tick tocks to drop. He's a buffoon and I have to ask how people thought he was worth listening to in the first place. My take is that he is controlled opposition - remember he started off as a NeverTrumper and then quickly changed his tune when he saw that Trump was going to be the GOP nominee. He also keeps inviting the liar Lindsey Graham (R-SC) onto his show, giving him soft-ball questions, when he could be grilling him on his inaction in pursuing the bad actors from the FBI who falsified documents to spy on Trump. We are still waiting for those Senate investigations to begin...... 2 years after they were promised.

Laura is just a third rate filler-in, who was lucky to land a spot after Tucker and Hannity to mop up the viewers still awake.

Greg Kelly from Newsmax is beating Fox in the 7pm slot. And rightly so. He is a staunch defender of Trump and speaks truth. 

So, what are the viewer numbers like now for the 3 Fox amigos now?

Viewer numbers from Thursday, 14-Jan-2021:

On Thursday, at 8pm, Anderson Cooper’s CNN hour came in with 4.015 million viewers, handily taking Tucker Carlson on Fox, who had 3.2 million fans.

Next. at 9pm, Sean Hannity’s Fox News show — ever supportive of Trump and his policies, constantly rationalizing for him — came in with 2.999 million. Rachel Maddow triumphed on MSNBC at the same time with with a robust 4.319 million. Maddow has eaten Hannity’s lunch all week.

Following at 10pm, Lawrence O’Donnell kept up Maddow’s steam with 3.3 million people glued to their MSNBC. That wasn’t a basket of flowers for Laura Ingraham, who just managed to get 2.2 million viewers to listen to her version of events for the day.

CNN and MSNBC are now beating Fox in the prime-time spots. 

Fox betrayed their core viewership. They exposed their NeverTrump credentials during and after the election. When Trump needed them most, they abandoned him. 

Fox is also filling their management with either NeverTrumpers or Progressives. That is SURE to win back viewers.....not.

May Fox News rot to the end.
