If you regularly watch Fox News and have been noticing something feels \u201coff\u201d with their election coverage, you\u2019re not wrong. Around a year ago, conservative political wonks turned off Fox News for good. The reason why has to do with events that unfolded in 2019. What did these conservative news junkies see that the rest of us missed? And, why does it matter now?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0Event Number One<\/u><\/strong>: The Passing of the Torch<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Rupert Murdoch was the media\u00a0titan who built and developed Fox News into America\u2019s conservative news juggernaut. Murdoch had six children. Of the six, his two sons\u00a0Lachlan and James\u00a0were in contention to take over Fox News even though both of them had openly repudiated Rupert\u2019s conservative politics. In 2019, Lachlan officially took over the reigns of Fox News. James, the more liberal of the two, opted to invest a large portion of his multi-billion dollar inheritance in liberal media ventures. Once Lachlan took charge, his goal was to move Fox News left. His moves were no surprise to insiders considering his public ties to climate change activism, donating to the Clinton Foundation, and proudly taking responsibility for pushing Bill O\u2019Reilley off the network. It\u2019s worth noting that Fox Business is a separate entity from Fox News, even though both\u00a0channels are owned by a new, scaled-back Fox Network.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Event Number Two<\/u><\/strong>: Fox News Hires the Haters<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
In March 2019, Fox News made a shocking move by hiring former DNC Committee Chief, Donna Brazile. Brazile was famously fired from the DNC and CNN for leaking debate questions to Hillary Clinton prior to a 2016 Presidential Debate against Donald Trump. Another WTF hire was the failed VP Candidate, Paul Ryan. Ryan was named to the Fox News Board of Directors in March, 2019. The well-known \u201cnever Trumper\u2019 routinely stonewalled President Trump\u2019s agenda as the Speaker of the House.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0Event Number Three<\/u>: \u201cShut-Up, Or Else\u2026\u201d<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Just a month ago,\u00a0Newt Gingrich\u2019s mic was cut\u00a0when he had the audacity to utter the name George Soros in an interview on Harris Faulkner\u2019s Fox News show, Overtime Outnumbered. During the interview the conversation moved into a discussion on political funding. Gingrich was presenting indisputable facts about Soros\u2019s well-known financial backing of many extremely left-leaning political organizations. The mic cut surprised both Faulkner and Gingrich which led to a long, awkward, pregnant silence on air. Was Gingrich\u2019s censorship a signal to other conservative voices?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Fast forward to this past week,\u00a0Judge Jeanine Pirro, the host of Justice W\/Jeanine on Fox News since 2011 announced the topic of her weekly show. The topic: Election Fraud. However, she was fired\/suspended before her segment aired. Was Pirro\u2019s firing meant to\u00a0send a message to other popular Fox News hosts?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Just days after Pirro\u2019s firing and Biden\u2019s bogus campaign victory speech, Laura Ingram the host of the Ingram Angle stunned Republicans. On her show, she took it upon herself to offer President Trump\u00a0advice on how to act graciously\u00a0upon his pending election concession. It was uncharacteristic of Ingram to take this defeatist position considering she consistently supported President Trump throughout his first term. As a former clerk to Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, Ingram knows the law and knows the election is far from officially decided.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Next, Tucker Carlson. With the highest ratings of any cable news show in the days leading up to November 3rd, where is he now that the blatant election fraud is being exposed? Strangely quiet given Carlson\u2019s fierce commitment to our Republic. Then, there\u2019s Hannity. If anyone deserves to be called a Trump fan-boy, it\u2019s Sean Hannity. Even\u00a0he\u00a0is noticeably restrained in his election coverage. Hannity knows full-well President Trump won in a landslide on Nov. 3rd, and remains the winner even after the Dem\u2019s election fuckery. Why isn\u2019t Hannity crying foul? Then there\u2019s Chris Wallace. His performance as a debate moderator drew such harsh criticism from both political sides, his professional reputation may not ever recover.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0Here IS what\u2019s going on at Fox News<\/u><\/strong><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
With just 73% of the votes counted in Arizona around midnight on November 3rd, Fox News made a stunning call, falsely awarding the win of the battleground state to Joe Biden. Now that we know the true nature of Fox News, have seen blatant election fraud, and seen a pattern of silence from the top talent on the channel; is it so far-fetched to think Fox News is playing a role in all of this?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
There is no question the 2020 election is rampant with fraud and it continues. Proof is mounting, whistleblowers are coming forward, even Supreme Court injunctions have been issued. All of this will be investigated and litigated through the courts. Rudy Guiliani and the rest of the Trump legal team have vowed to fight. And, for good reason. The law is on Trump\u2019s side. Recall this past summer when President Trump repeatedly warned America about mail-in voting and election fraud? Everything that\u2019s happening now was anticipated by the Trump team, well in advance. Nothing so far has been a surprise to The President and his team.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Now that the fraud has been executed, it relies on two key factors to actually succeed.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Play number one is \u201clawfare\u201d. The election fraud is designed to stir up chaos, forcing the election to be decided by the courts, rather than at the ballot box. How the Dems are weaponizing the law to manage the election outcome is called\u00a0lawfare. The Dems are great at this. Remember Hillary\u2019s numerous provable felonies when she mishandled top secret information on her personal server? The head of the FBI, Comey, called it a \u201cmatter\u201d not a \u201ccrime\u201d. A\u00a0crime\u00a0can be legally prosecuted, a\u00a0matter\u00a0cannot. See what they did there? Effective lawfare. Hillary walked.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The second key play is the \u201cinformation war\u201d. This is where Fox News is playing a key role. Here\u2019s the breakdown: Fox News delivered blatantly fake news by calling AZ a win for Biden. They delivered the lie early. So early in fact Fox News dominated the news cycle and grabbed control of the election narrative going forward. Fox News is attempting to position President Trump as\u00a0the loser who is fighting a losing battle against fake election fraud in the courts, because he can\u2019t take the L.\u00a0Having Fox News deliver this news is part of the plan in order to give the lie credibility. To add extra credence to the hoax, the management at Fox News has succeeded in manipulating their top talent to support the fake narrative. The left is counting on the average Trump supporter to believe the lie since it comes from the\u00a0trusted,\u00a0\u201cconservative\u201d\u00a0Fox News and its top personalities. The rationale goes like this: If Fox News is reporting Trump lost AZ, it must be true. Why would Fox lie about the Republican candidate to their Republican audience?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Do not underestimate the power and effectiveness of the \u201cinformation war\u201d. It\u2019s meant to demoralize Trump supporters, weak-kneed Republican politicians, law enforcement, the military, foreign leaders etc. The left does not want an energized, organized opposition fighting for America\u2019s election integrity. What we\u2019re seeing now isn\u2019t the Dem\u2019s kill-shot, they\u2019re trying to soften the target. The mainstream media knows it can make any claims about who won the election without consequences, especially since it\u2019s a coordinated attack. They\u00a0need\u00a0Trump supporters to give up and concede in order to win.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
For the people who want a free and fair election, internalize this:\u00a0the media doesn\u2019t decide elections. Trump won in a landslide. The Dems cheated to try to win. Every legal vote will be counted so states can legally certify official results. All the criminal participants from local election officials to the head(s) of the fraud operation will be prosecuted. None of this will happen quickly, but it will happen. Trump and his team are in full control of this fight. As he came off his well-deserved round of golf over the weekend, his only quote was, \u201cWe\u2019re gonna win. Wait.\u201d The only outstanding question is, are you going to give the opposition what they want? Are you going to get weak, loose hope, and abandon our duly elected President?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0Where to go from here?<\/u><\/strong><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
It\u2019s critical for us all to combat the \u201cinformation war\u201d. This means staying informed with\u00a0real, accurate news\u00a0and sharing it with our friends, families, and neighbors. It\u2019s not easy because social media platforms and the coordinated mainstream media have created an information firewall. However, with a little persistence, sharing with our networks by using word-of-mouth neutralizes the firewall. By texting, emailing, and conversing we are creating our own media network that offers more information that is being hidden from everyone. So, the question becomes where to find real news to share since Fox News has proven to be a turd in a tuxedo.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
It\u2019s time to switch to alternative news sources. To make the jump, it takes some temporary \u201cgetting used-to\u201d. Be prepared for things like: lower production quality, occasional technical glitches, and watching on other devices \u2014 unless you put in a little work to figure out how to connect your phone or internet to your TV. It may take downloading a new app, or visiting a new site. These minor short-term inconveniences are worth it to get real, honest news.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
