The Left-Wing Takeover of Fox News

124

[the_ad id=”90513″]

Many of us have seen this coming for a long time. The more powerful Fox became (on the backs of the right), the more Fox moved to the left.

Roger Ailes should never have been forced to resign, nor Bill O’Reilly (even though I am not a fan). Rupert Murdoch’s two silver-spooned stooges, James Murdoch (Tweedledee) and Lachlan Murdoch (Tweedledum) are systematically dismantling the once-great network. And like all true leftists, they are tone deaf to the cacophony of complaints.

Story continues below advertisement

The cringe-worthy Geraldo Rivera, Juan Williams, Martha McCallum, Bob Beckel (!), why not Tomi Lahren? …. I turned it off after the election. The only place for Conservatives to get our news is online.

There is a great opportunity for a right-of-center news channel. It seems inevitable. And so we wait the second coming of a conservative network, where the work of my colleagues and I will have a home.

Serial plagiarists such as Fareed Zakaria are just as powerful as ever on CNN, but a hint of indiscretion, and Fox cuts you loose. We still have Hannity. But for how long? Only Rupert knows. Once Rupert goes, it’s over.

The Left-Wing Takeover of Fox News

By Cliff Kincaid, April 28,

When Bill O’Reilly left Fox News he declared, “I am very confident the truth will come out and when it does I don’t know if you are going to be surprised, but I think you are going to be shaken as I am.” Some observers think he was referring not to the sexual harassment allegations against him, but to behind-the-scenes maneuvers by one of Rupert Murdoch’s sons, James, and his very liberal wife, Kathryn. Her bio says, “Between 2007-2011, Ms. Murdoch served as Director of Strategy & Communications for the Clinton Climate Initiative (CCI) where she also managed CCI ‘s partnership with Microsoft in the development of a global greenhouse gas emissions tracking software.”

In short, she is a globalist insider who sees the green hysteria as a viable way to control people and their lifestyles.

We warned back in 2007 in our column, “Rupert Murdoch Picks Liberal Son as Successor,” that James Murdoch was maneuvering to take control of Fox News. We also noted that James Murdoch “buys into global warming hysteria,” and that his liberal philosophy on environmental and other matters “could become the party line” of the Fox News Channel.

It turns out that his wife is more of an environmental zealot than he is.

[the_ad id=”90513″]

Accuracy in Media had attended the annual meeting of the Fox News parent company, raising concern about James Murdoch’s increasing influence in the company and his attacks on conservative groups, such as the Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI). He wrote an article for the Guardian attacking CEI for dispensing “inaccurate propaganda” about the global warming issue.

Of course, many conservatives regard the theory of man-made global warming as a hoax and a means by which government at many levels hopes to control, regulate and tax the use of natural resources.

Referring to the alleged effects of global warming, now called climate change, James Murdoch said, “We can have an enormous impact if we encourage our customers to make simple, effective changes in their lifestyles.”

That’s easy for James and Kathryn Murdoch to say; he is the heir to a multi-billion dollar fortune. “The Murdoch fortune now stands at around $14 billion,” noted the publication Inside Philanthropy in 2015. “Because Rupert seems to have zero interest in harnessing this wealth to philanthropy, that challenge will fall to his kids.”

One of the “focus areas” of the Murdochs’ Quadrivium Foundation is “natural resources.” But rather than exploit them for the good of humanity, the foundation supports “innovation” in their use. This is code, as James Murdoch suggested in his Guardian article, for restricting the economic lifestyle choices of consumers.

A link from their foundation directs people to the webpage of the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF) and an advertisement denouncing President Trump for “failing the environment.” Page 25 of the EDF annual report lists “Kathryn Murdoch, President, Quadrivium Foundation,” as a member of the Board of Directors. “At the end of fiscal 2016,” the report states, “EDF’s net assets stood at $217 million, providing a strong financial foundation as we pursue our ambitious environmental goals.”

With the Murdoch billions behind them, those “goals,” which include what the United Nations calls a new “economic development model” to replace global capitalism, could become a reality.

That was the goal, at least, until Donald Trump became president and, as AIM’s Roger Aronoff recently noted, indicated his determination to confront the global “climate change agenda.”

The Gateway Pundit website notes that Kathryn Murdoch regularly trashes Trump on Twitter. Indeed, her Twitter feed goes after many different conservative personalities and policies of all kinds. A collection of her most significant Tweets includes attacks on Trump aide Steve Bannon, and despondency over Trump’s election victory. On the other hand, she praised Fox News personality Shepard Smith for criticizing Trump.

Her Tweets have included messages such as:

  • A vote for Trump is a vote for climate catastrophe.
  • Can we impeach a candidate? Seriously.
  • Happy to see this on Fox News. The final argument for Hillary Clinton, based on 3 indisputable facts.

The latter was a reference to a Lanny Davis pro-Hillary article on the Fox News website.

When her husband and his brother Lachlan move to the left, she is quick to retweet those comments, such as when they sent a letter declaring, “We deeply value diversity and believe immigration an essential part of America’s strength.” The letter was intended as a rebuff to President Trump’s effort to restrict the entry into the U.S. of illegal aliens and Islamic terrorists.

Despite the Murdochs’ disdain for the Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI) and the likelihood that the group will receive less and less coverage from Fox News, its staffers are demonstrating significant clout with the new Trump administration. In regard to Trump’s promise during the campaign to withdraw from the Paris climate agreement, The Washington Times reports that Trump’s top advisers have received a unique proposal from CEI, arguing that the agreement be declared a treaty and sent to the Senate to be killed.

CEI’s interesting proposal would rectify former President Obama’s unconstitutional decision to make the Paris accord into an executive agreement, without the need for Congressional input or approval. By declaring it to be a treaty and sending it to the Senate, where it is not likely to get the necessary two-thirds vote for ratification, Trump could force lawmakers to take a stand on what CEI calls its demands for “regulations that will force Americans to pay more and more for energy.”

CEI’s message to Trump is, “Don’t listen to the Swamp. Please keep your campaign promise to withdraw the United States from the U.N. Paris Climate Treaty and send it to the Senate for a vote.”

The Fox News coverage of this showdown will be another indication of the pull that James and Kathryn Murdoch are starting to exert over the once “conservative” news channel.

This is more evidence that finding the actual news, from an unbiased source, who would report that news without expressing their opinion and slanting what the commentator believes conforms to his/hers opinion, will be next to impossible in the future. I have already given up on The New York Times and newspapers such as that, MSN, NBC, ABC, and now I may have to look at FOX with the same reticence. I am still very concerned that FOX terminated O’Reilly, as I thought that he reported the news as straight as one could, though I recognized that he also was more conservative than middle of the road. Tell me is their any reporting service out there reporting the news without mangling that news with their own opinion?

Hillary Clinton herself even said that the Enquirer once wrote an article that claimed that she “would be dead in six months.” Heck, by 2020, she’ll likely be wheelchair bound anyway due to her obvious and ongoing health problems.

I left Fox News immediately following the Megyn Kelly/Donald Trump fiasco and switched to One America News Network (OANN). I receive more news in 1/2 hour on OANN sans the commentary than I ever received from Fox due to their never ending chattering hosts who deliver more opinion than news.

Graham Ledger has a daily show at 8PM weekdays and, in my opinion, he is far superior to any Fox News host and far less arrogant.

If Fox moves in the direction of its liberal competition, there will be millions and millions of viewers like myself who will be looking for a conservative alternative. So Murdoch boys, run Fox to the left and watch your network and bank account crash. Let the wise be warned and but let the foolish cut off their noses to spite their faces.

True- the Genie is out of the bottle. There are enough sources that a Network simply cannot be the propaganda mouthpiece for liberals like it was before Fox. When these two pampered liberals decide to make Fox another MSNBC, another network will pop up in it’s place and CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNMC, & the new Fox will be dividing the liberal viewers amongst them. Another lib network will put even more pressure on the above mentioned and hopefully drive them out of business and lose the limousine liberals billions.

Fox never was a strictly conservative network, it covered both sides of issues. Of course, compared to the rest of the media mouthpieces, Fox looked like right wing “extremists.” Guess what, we get news from other sources now and you will become about as useful as buggy whips and computer punch card machines.

The Paris climate change agreement and the Iranian nuclear deal are alike in that both represent a political agreement between Obhammud and those who saw the fool coming and is not binding on this country as a formal treaty would be. Let’s put both to a vote in the Senate. It is also interesting to note after the “Charlie Hebdo” attacks, world leaders met in Paris and marched arm-in-arm down the streets as a show of solidarity. Obhammud was conspicuous by his absence but a mere two weeks later he was Johnny-on-the-spot to attend the climate change shindig in that same city.

Now that a ‘Conservative’ in the White House and a decent FCC chairman, Ajit Pai, it may be time for a band of Conservatives, Libertarians and Constitutionalists to step up and start a broadcast venue from the political right. I almost guarantee it would be an instant winner. Look at what FNC did to the competition, viewership wise, with their “Fair and Balanced” meme of reporting from BOTH sides.
Though Pai is an Obama appointee, he is being looked at to remain in office with a forthcoming Trump appointment. He appears to be quite Conservative and would be, I’m sure, amenable to issue the appropriate broadcast licenses.

meaningless virtue signaling … ratings will drop, but will revenue?

more likely the S&P500 and other “conservative” (to use the Lietard’s definition) corporations will continue to advertise on Fox just as they have before.

btw who ever said Fox was conservative??? (to use the actual definition which means Pro-west, Pro-American, etc., and not “the root of All evilllllllll’… nor ‘Libtard who can’t get elected as a Demokkkrat’)

Allowing some conservatives, libertarians, neo-cons, and RINO contributor’s make simple, obvious observations which reflect poorly upon the Leftist agenda while their Libtard hosts and Libtard contributers remain polite … hardly counts as a conservative station.

Giving 50% or less of their air time to rebut the Big Lies coming 24/7 from the State/Corporate sponsored media made Fox the most conservative station on cable, but it’s not conservative …

Or as I like to put it: Why should conservatives get all exacted about Faux News b/c it’s only 50% Fake???

For those of us paying attention, Fox is to the MSM as a marriage counseling session is to a transcendental meditation conference. … or

Watching Fox is a lot like watching someone argue with their bipolar ex-spouse about what the latter did with the rent money … or

Watching the parents of the school bully explain why their son beat up the school’s resident nerd to the Vice Principal … while the nerd’s parents complain …

Fox was hardly a groundbreaking or breathtaking achievement. I’m old enough to remember when the Lietards themselves used to use facts and even – gasp – the truth – occasionally – to give themselves credibility.

Honestly – I gave up Fox when I gave up my gym membership – and I’ve never missed either one.

The old story all over again, a nations largely abandons its Judeo-Christian beliefs with the accompanying values concerning which the brain-dead left knows nothing, and this is what the nation gets, insanity and lies.

They believe “immigration an essential part of America’s strength”, but then bring in Muslims who mostly contribute nothing to “strength”, parasite off the system – which they consider their Islamic ‘jizya’ right – create incessant strife, make unreasonable demonds and don’t assimilate. This drivelling left talk about Muslims creating “strength” reflects the rubbish that rolls from the mouth of Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau, surely one of the most stupid ‘leader’ in the Western world. Hang tough Hungary, Poland and any other nation that tells Muslim migrants to take a hike – but not on their territory.

Alleged non-republicans who hyphenate as conservatives or tea partiers and who, like liberal womb rejects, walk in a tunnel following the likes of Hannity and the choirboy Bill O’Reilly. Blindly following ignorance, deviant criminals, and individuals whose only purpose is get power ratings, sell books and personality, most of all convincing their puppets that they are god’s gift to a patriotic America. Thus the term “tunnel worshippers”

FOX is not falling apart. It is imploding.

I am a Real and True republican. A retired American Soldier, a combat veteran who is educated and who is not lead around on strings. I lay no claim to battlefield heroics, but I did engage.

Hannity. Misguided egocentric who plays with a womb reject like Ted Nugent, steadfast playmates at the NRA, who laugh at the brutal murder of Cecil the Lion and that womb reject Nugent who calls people like me stupid for supporting the life of Cecil the Lion and condemning that peepoor dentist Palmer who murdered Cecil. Calling me stupid? Hey Nugent, your DNA needs a restart. Not in Nugents best day…….. Then there is the NRA in full support of states not requiring training and registration to own a firearm. NRA was up in arms when it learned that the NO-FLY list included some names added by circumstance. So what, if you have nothing to hide, prove yourself….

Hannity and the rest of his cast of conservative idiotics are nothing more than blatant and lethergic intellectual flaws.

Neither Hannity or O’Reilly make no attempt to destroy islam’s validity and as I said, they seek ratings which equals money therefore they must appease the moderate, liberal, or conservative muslim. NEWSFLASH: There is no such thing as a moderate muslim. Liberal muslim. Conservative muslim. If there are any of the above, they either show their face and stay in their pile of sand, or come out in full support of Israel, and boast anti-Iran, anti-ISIS, anti-Quran…..Hostory and experience dictates muslims who align with non-muslims must “act” as though they are a friend. Not one news network integrates facts based upon truths.

Certainly, FOX had its advantages over liberal left media, but their general intent remains as the others, power ratings and loads of dough…..

FOX is no big loss. There is however, a beaming light of honor and her name is Judge Jeannine Pirro.

Apparently ignorant womb rejects like you are allowed to talk out of your buttock and toss ignorance around like a favorite pasttime. They deleted my first response.
So, you lethargic tunnel worshipping womb reject, you have no clue as to what a real jihadist is.
Next time you respond, show some intellectual balance and spell “maskarading” correctly. I am guessing you realized you are out of your league reading my post, as your interpretation shows an academic reject. I NEVER SAID I WAS A CONSERVATIVE, I did however, state my political agenda as being a non-hyphenated republican.
So, if anything, I am a Real and True American, not a puppet and not a follower, and certainly not an idiot like yourself. Before you comment be sure to have the intellectual capacity and the facts to both read and analyze before you respond.
I am an American Soldier who fought against ISIS before you knew what ISIS was. So for you to refer to me as a “counter jihadist” is somewhat correct. I countered the Levant with my training and absolute hatred of islam. Research the Levant and learn something, now go away……

I am really impressed by your reply, in that according to you anyone that calls you on your bullshit is stupid or a raving idiot ! Yep,really impressed ! I really believe your story about ” i am an American Soldier who fought against ISIS before you ever knew what ISIS was ” And ” I countered the Levant with my training and absolute hatred of Islam ” . And the best of all the lines that you speued forth was, ” Research the Levant and Learn something “. SO PAY ATTENTION BOY ! I spent 26 years in the United States Army before i retired. And I happen to Know just a little bit about the terms that were used around and in the military, And your Alansky ass bullshit, isn’t correct ! No one that was in the U.S. Army would use any of the terms that you have used. So if you want to talk the talk, and claim the walk, the FIRST thing you need to do is learn the talk, BOY ! So kindly drag your sorry ass down the road, and go away, BOY ! CSM Ray Sears, U.S. Army (RETIRED)

CSM SEARS, and I use CSM in a very very very questionable manner. You are the pathetic inbred Senior Enlisted that many of us have not had the dishonor of serving under and have nightmares about.
You are just plain stupid…..
It is also apparent that your lethargy stands for ignorance while shrouded in patheticism.
You have no clue as to the intent nor the content of my original post. You run off with that garbage can under your nose not realizing how silly you are…
So, to show my disrespect towards your fraudulent buttock, I wash my hands of your like.
If I were you, I would go back to the reference you made about Army or military terminology.
I am through with your womb rejected, disrespectful Soldier wanna be character….
I am finished here..
Oh, one more thing, I did OSUT..
UH OH, did I just use a military term that I know not of what I speak….

You maybe a Republican and may even be conservative – I have no way of knowing. But you certainly insult and claim superiority like a typical ‘communist wanna-be’ that comes to a conservative comment section.

Firstly, this is not a “conservative comment section”. This site is the creation of a woman who is dedicated to the almost total and eternal destruction of islam. And if it is read by mostly republicans, so be it, as that is validation that the liberal puppets are too stupid to comprehend the matters of islam.

Second, and you must be a boyfriend or playmate of the Mr. Sears fella, because at no time did I identify myself as a conservative. I, unlike many of you, do not hyphenate myself as a conservative or tea partier. I am a republican, plaon amd originally simple.

Third, you identify me as a “communist wannabe”, as if you know what a communist wannabe really is.I am most patriotic than even your character.

Fourth, I did not begin to insult or go for the jugular till I was attacked. Trust me, when I go for the jugular, I spew shock and awe with a dose of logic and common sense. It is fraudulent republicans like you conservative, tea party puppets and that Soldier wannabe Sears, who distort not only patriotic value, but intellectual value as well.

I have noticed when I take that step to prove a point, it is and can only be challenged by verbal lethergy, insulting wit (as if), because you have not the intellectual capacity to counter with a valid response.

I know why I am on this site now and then. You certainly have no life. NOW GO AWAY!!!

First, I must apologize as I fell victim to answering from two sites and conflated the two in response to you.

a woman who is dedicated to the almost total and eternal destruction of Islam – obviously you spend more time in the comment section than listening to what she actually says

Liberals, whether they understand Islam or not, support acceptance of world views above historical American values and that makes for strange bedfellows.

As for the rest of my post I stand by the point I was making and not the one you read into the comment. I doubt you are a communist but our dismissive and insulting text is the same type of communication I would expect from whatever label you would like to apply to the modern aberration of people who would seek the perceived safety of the net of government protection over the opportunities of self-government.

I would guess that you actually are fairly happy person – I would only hope that in the future you would try to be less disdainful and express more of that positive attitude. Now I’ll go away. Have a wonderful life.

The Cecil the Lion story killed me too. I thought about that magnificent animal killed strictly for sport for a long time. I’ll never forget his name. Regarding Judge Jeannine – I like what she says but I wish she would dress more professionally, but then I think that about almost every female FOX personality. The guys wear suits and ties, the women might as well be naked.

This is bizarre. Fox is turning left because members of the Murdoch family, who do not appear on Fox, have made what some think are lefty comments and tweets? Bob Beckel and Juan Williams? They alternate in the token-liberal seat on The Five so they can be beat up by the other four, which is the format The Five has always followed. Geraldo Rivera, who makes it a point every time he appears how big a pal he is of Donald Trump and almost always praises Trump’s actions, a lefty? I don’t follow Martha McCallum so will not comment on her.

Tucker Carlson is doing a magnificent job in O’Reilly’s old slot. He has the mental agility to bring onto every episode of his program someone with whom he disagrees, and invariably trounces him or her. I won’t say ill of O’Reilly but frankly Carlson is better.

Yep, those women in their pink pussy hats and the pussy whipped husbands are in the process of turning FOX into another CNN or MSNBC. BUT, there is another conservative news channel – One America News, channel 347 on Direct TV. Many places don’t have it yet, but as it becomes better known, they will. Direct TV didn’t have it a year ago.

CNN is not even close to a news source anymore
Every time I check on it, AM or PM
Just a bunch of talking heads sitting around bashing Trump
The “hosts” interrupt anyone coming close to trying to explain what they think Trump is doing right.
It’s like a 24 hour talk show format
With President Trump as the infamous ?

If I should ever be so braindead I want to hear a leftards opine,I can tune to the Communist News Network aka the Clintoon News Network or any one of the others who spew leftard claptrap.Fox “Fair and Balanced” IMO puts waaay more leftards opinions into the airwaves than I care to either hear or watch.I really DON’T care what they have to say,the opinions of deranged,mentally ill TRAITORS to their country holds NO interest to me,and the interest I USED to have with Fox is rapidly disappearing.I watch “Fox and Friends first” at 5 am and turn that shiite off for the bubbleheaded opinions from many of their guests.At this point it sometimes seems that Fox is run by schizophrenics that can’t make up their minds where they stand.
“News” was better when it was at six pm,and 11 pm and then off the air.
