It didn’t take long for Fox News to try to clear the air with Donald Trump. One day after Trump announced he “won’t be doing any more Fox shows for the foreseeable future,” Fox News announced plans to meet with the candidate next week.
“Fox News Chairman & CEO Roger Ailes and Donald Trump spoke this morning and plan to have a meeting next week to discuss their differences of opinion regarding Fox’s coverage of Mr. Trump’s presidential campaign,” the statement reads. “Ailes will be joined by senior Fox editorial executives. Mr. Trump believes he has been treated unfairly in certain instances. FOX News has held every candidate in this race to the highest journalistic standards throughout our coverage.
“We believe a candid meeting about our differences is required and that any misunderstandings can be handled without compromising those standards.”
"Compromising standards?" So now Fox News has standards?
This is the second time that Fox has groveled at Trump's feet.
Of course if you read Trump's Twitter account he does not exactly seem in a hurry to make nice.
.@megynkelly, the @FoxNews poll said very plainly I came in second in the debate. All others, Time, Drudge, Slate etc. said I came in 1st.

Personally I hope they don't make nice.I much prefer watching Trump tear chunks out of Roger Ailes ass rather than having them working together again.
As soon as Trump's polls officially slump to 2nd, then 3rd place, he will be OUTTA here! Those numbers will make him look small. He hates that.
ReplyDeleteIf Trump does get the GOP nomination, a Fox "endorsement" of him could make him electable. This would be disastrous for the country.
ReplyDeleteI will say this for Donald Trump: he knows how to play the Republican Party like a fiddle. He has them all acting like complete fools!
ReplyDeleteI still wonder if this isn't some very elaborate long-term con job to ensure a Democrat is elected in 2016. I wouldn't put it past him.
I agree with you.
DeleteThat's what I've been thinking as well. You couldn't do a better job of sticking a finger in the GOP eye if you tried. Think about it: going out of his way to alienate the very demographics the GOP has been courting...embracing Sarah Palin when she's clearly anathema to TPTB. If it's Machiavellion on his part then it's nothing short of genius. And if it isn't then we're back to Obama's line about the GOP having so many candidates, they can have their own Hunger Games (pass the popcorn please)
DeleteI think it's very appropriate that this story came from Entertainment Weekly. Because that's all these people are, is entertainment. Both Trump and Fox News are nothing but things to be laughed at.
ReplyDeleteIs that all it takes to get FoxNews to change their coverage?
ReplyDeletePresident Obama should have boycotted them years ago!

ReplyDelete-Donald Trump
Don't worry Donald, in Sarah Palin's heart you take first over Todd and the rest of those degenerates living off of her.
Who knew what a groveling pussy roger ailes is. lol
ReplyDeleteTrump must be enjoying making Ailes look small...
DeleteIn other RW insanity, Cruz just said he will jail Obama and KILL the Iranian leaders when he gets into the WH. And the rubes cheered him on. Something is seriously wrong with this nation. If I believed in him, I'd say Cruz has been taken over by Satan himself.
ReplyDeleteAs I've said before, he is Rosemary's baby. He has his Fathers eyes. His father is Satan. He also reminds me of Liberaci,not that there's anything wrong with that.
DeleteI am so very glad that MSNBC has been covering the Pope's visit non-stop. I am so OVER the clown car shinanigans. All of them, any of them.......
ReplyDeleteAiles and Trump are just a bunch of bullshit artists.
ReplyDeleteWhen the hell did a presidential candidate get to tell a "supposed" news outlet how to cover him? Which of course
proves Faux isn't actually a news organization.
Its all for show. Trump and Ailes/fox both love the drama. The continuing soap opera helps the ratings. They even have the liberal blogs (wink) masturbating over the nothingness.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if The Donald had his attorney sent Fox a letter that he was going to sue them.
ReplyDeleteSo the bully wins again. I want to see what happens when The Donald loses in a primary.
Donald's bitch
ReplyDeleteTrump speaks as if the various media themselves--the writers and other politically knowledgeable people who work at these places--are saying that he won the debate. He names the media as if they are saying he was the best and they’re honoring him. What the polls said and what the mags and pundits said were two very different things. The media ran polls and the voting was by Joe Blows all over the country. It wasn’t the media themselves saying he was great.
ReplyDeleteAnd just because those votes did go to him, it doesn't mean that all the polled voters favored Trump. There are various reasons why some people say that someone won. For example, I disagree with Fiorina and knew she was lying up there, but as far as how she handled things on the stage and being effective when it came to reaching the fools she wanted to reach, she won.
Had to laugh at these. Candidate shaped dog treats.
ReplyDeleteThe jokes write themselves.
But I was wondering if they would be better used as puke-inducing medicine for when your dog eats something it's not suppose to.
