Trump Doubles Down on Criticism of Fox News

White House [Public Domain]

President Trump’s favorite network is Fox News, but judging by his latest rhetoric that could be changing.

According to The Daily Caller:

President Donald Trump escalated his attacks on Fox News Wednesday morning in a tweet storm directed at several of the network’s liberal personalities.

“Just watched Fox News heavily promoting the Democrats through their DNC Communications Director, spewing out whatever she wanted with zero pushback by anchor [Sandra Smith],” Trump tweeted.

Trump also attacked liberal commentator Juan Williams and television host Shepard Smith, and suggested that conservatives should start “looking for a new News Outlet.”

Wednesday’s tweets are the latest indication of the president’s frustration with Fox News. 

It seems like the president will be looking for a new way to consume the news if Fox News does not get its act together.

When it gets so bad even Fox News has to tell the whole story not with the spin on it as they were doing for a long time while loosing advertising support, which keeps them on the air.
You can only ignore facts for so long before the facts catch up n with you.

There is certain commentator on Fox that I refuse to listen to,Shepard smith is one of them along with the loony black Guy Juan Williams,and I’d rather listen to a dog bark than listen to Donna Brazil spew her idiotic nonsense,liberals just naturally get on your nerves,all them combined don’t have enough sense to rub two nickels together and lack any godly wisdom completely,but of course if they did,they wouldn’t be democrats.

So true. FOX has made a huge left turn withing the past year. So disgusting and disgraceful. We refuse to watch FOX with a few exceptions: Fox and Friends, Hannity, Carlson, Pirro, Ingraham, and FBN, Dobbs and Varney. Other than that the rest a re all anti Trumpers, anti America, pro DEMONazi. They’ve even stopped covering the PRESIDENT’s rallies or speeches, giving us the excuse, it’s on FB.
We prefer One America News which tells the whole truth, not just slanted, biased lies. Moreover, It covers every appearance of OUR PRESIDENT and all of his rallies. If you can’t get it from your provider, you can access it on FB for a very low subscription fee. #MAGA #KAG #TAKETHEHOUSE2020 #INCREASETHESENATE2020 #TRUMP2020

You must mean all the “facts” about the unprecedented corruption of the Obama administration come which totally Weaponized the highest levels of federal law-enforcement and he use illegally against incoming president Trump.
Not ONE WORD about this unprecedented abuse of power by most of the “main stream” media! Nor one word of apology retraction a correction for defrauding the public for nearly 3 years over the horrendous Muller hoax!

Trump wants to censor even conservative Fox News. He wants all media to slant the news to favor him. News which is unfavorable to him is to be considered “false news” and stupid statements which he often makes are just ‘jokes”.

Fox News has sold itself to the devil. Trump doesn’t want news slanted in his direction he just wants it to be true. Fox has hired people and gives them air time and their horrible. Now their isn’t one news entity that gives him a fair shake.

Fox remains Fox. Hannity is a commentator not a journalist. Ingram is a commentator but relies heavily on objective dialogue and has people with opposing views. Donna Brazil’s is more objective than most people on the left. Shepard Smith, Juan Williams, and Chris have never been Trump supporters.

the Media is totally disrespectful, the media never stands of for the right in what could be possible if we come together and when you have no honor and integrity is lost in all media and all their reporters, because they wanted a criminal like Clinton in office then you have to stand down as in our house of Congress there is not respect for the president and the democrats have done nothing in the line of defending America against an illegal invasion which they continue to violate the laws and disrespect the citizens of this country, they try to make our elected President look like a fool and thank God how many times it back fires against them, there is no more truth to the ongoing of our president, nothing at all so Yes in his shoes I would also consider retiring and getting out because there is no good people in our house of Congress and there is only hate, which the DOJ should reacted upon their ways and movements and the DOJ just watches and sits back doing nothing as this is in any mans book called terrorism against our government and the people of the united states it is called Domestic terrorism and when no one wants to enforce the laws then it is time to get out and let the citizens stand up and have a revolution with the taking out and hanging of all Congress and senators who continue n these ways, we have never seen anything like this is the history of the United states, and while Our President DONALD TRUMP IS DOING THE BEST FOR OUR COUNTRY HE IS BEING BLOCKED WITH NO ASSISTANCE IN HELPING THE CITIZENS IN TROUBLE MAKING IT LOOK LIKE OUR PRESIDENT IS RESPONSIBLE AND HE IS NOT!

Hey Robert and Larry, GET OVER IT! President Trump is correct, as usual. Fox has been planning this discretely since the election. Both Juan and Sheppard, and I’ll throw Neil in there also, have the worst cases of Trump Derangement Syndrome, on a par with individuals associated with CNN, MSNBC, etc. Get back to me in 5 years, if you have gotten over your Trump Derangement Syndrome by then, which is unlikely. Peace out

FOX News wants to be known as “fair and balanced;” therefore, they hire NOTORIOUS Never Trumpers like Juan Williams and Sheppard Smith. They, as representatives of the FOX Network, strike a negative stance against POTUS Trump. POTUS Trump strikes back at the offending pundits and they, just like the Squad, immediately flash the “Anti-FOX card” or the “Race” card.

I am in agreement with most of the comments expressing Fox having brought abroad additional news contributors that are completely anti-Trump. I am disappointed with the negative biased comments of Juan Williams, Shepherd Smith, the list is endless and I am becoming disgusted with the constant flow of negativity directed to the right. I have reached a place that I DO NOT waste my precious time with any of the liberal news media. Fox is my ONLY last hope for real news. Fox, gives us a break from the plethora of liberal news media spewing cynical comments about the President. It is tiring to hear the exact hopeless remarks toward a man, who is making a huge difference within our country. Each liberal news person presents the news with the exact words on every news channel. I find it amazing how they follow the dialog word for word, assuming upper management instructs all journalist to present all news as dictated to them, do not deviate!

Yes FOX did sell their soul to the devil alrighty and we no longer watch the FOX News-
the cable will only get their hits on the control buttons we use…no CNN, MSNBC, Dateline, any news networks…no sports either, where kneeling is allowed–we the people have power at the cable box–less we watch the less hits they get, less $$ they get-that is why there is so many commercials to keep those news networks afloat -Yes on: The Blaze? OANN? The Daily Wire? Townhall.Com? But then again, it is not accessible due to the lack of CC of any form for the Deaf -even newspapers are not worthy to read nor is some of the online news either FOX NEWS closed captioning is not reliable either …they abused the FCC regulations… so on and on stirring the porridge to a huge lump of chaos!

I haven’t heard anything but good things for Pres Trump on Fox News, Maybe it is the owner of
Fox News that is worried, Let us all know who are the ones that won’t sponsor them, and we can
all stop buying their products. That is what I did, dropped all newspapers that we took, stopped
watching all TV stations that went against Trump and don’t buy products that endorse the Dem-
ocrat Party, and I can say this because my Father was a Head Union Leader and I think we need to do away with all unions and let the people keep their own money. They are killing our
country. And teach the kids the right way to do things, not ask for all free things.

Trump should just get some advice from his buddy Putin on how to handle negative press. Putin just has them conveniently murdered or silenced one way or another. With all the money Trump has it should be a piece of cake to arrange it all.

Good grief people! I’ve been watching Fox News for years on and off and if you remember, the catch phrase was always that their news presented BOTH SIDES and you could make your own decisions about what you believe. I’m not fond of the Democrat or Liberal contributors either, but they provide their opinion and the Conservative or Republican contributors provide THEIR opinion. It’s up to you to decide which is the better thing to believe and go with. If you’re watching a program that is all Conservative or all Democrat then you are only getting one side of the story. How can you make a logical decision if you don’t know both sides? The same goes for the President. Of course he is on one side and is strictly going to abide by the Conservative policies but it doesn’t hurt to listen to the other side also. Maybe we can all learn something by listening to both sides before we jump to conclusions and name calling and outright disrespect.

Maybe the President should Call A.J. But Alex would have to change his ways, and tone, moving away from hyperbole and turning it Turned WAY Down.
I’ve always liked Alex, and he was the one who woke me up to Spraying the Skies with Chemicals. I just don’t like his ‘know it all sarcasm.’ Other than that, he has ‘REAL INFORMATION on his channel. BUT THIS IS UP TO THE PRESIDENT. We already know what Congress, Senate and House think and feel about Alex, but it sure would tick them off, leading to a great way of getting back at them all, and having so much more truth spilling out of his mouth, they’d all be running for cover. If there’s any way to get back on all the Never Trumpers?…Bring Alex back, to be the one to get the Exclusives, and push out the rest of Media. OMG, they would be ticked. 😀 BUT, the White House doesn’t owe MSM a dog-gone thing. The President has the right to close the doors to MSM, unless they stop LYING, and STOP super-editing the things he says, and inserts what they THINK..

williams and smith have always been PsOS and I turn the channel every time they are on. As far as sandra smith goes — I think the pressure has been put on them to lean left or else — I don’t watch her or hemmer anymore either. I was very disappointed with the Hannity program last night — when he allowed Genova(who I like) praise AG Barr after it came out that he would not indict the scumbag dirtbag comey. I had to turn them off . I can’t blame our President for being disgusted with Fox — especially after hiring the likes of brazille, who should be behind bars not on TV.

Fox made a business decision to shift left. They are hoping to host a Democrat debate. Their shift will not improve their bottom line. Viewers lost will most likely not return except for a small number of commentary shows. I have moved to One American News and some particular programs on BBC.

Fox News is owned & run by LEFTIST BILLIONAIRES. Trump did not get the hint when Kelly, Wallace & Baier did nothing but belittle & attack him & his fellow candidates during the Fox republican debates? I was actually looking forward to a REAL DEBATE, instead I got an all you could eat character assassination of the republican candidates. I turned off the first debate about 1/3rd of the way through & never watched Fox News again. Do not miss it at all since they purged every conservative & moderate republican on the network.

You can thank Disney for taking over. Now it’s become more liberal instead of conservative. I love Tucker for sticking to his guns. And Shepard Smith is a meathead.
