No problem.

Same here. I like Lou Dobbs. He's steadfast and brave. He is getting a bit old though and not quite as sharp.
Tucker is very good at what he does and I'm glad I can still watch his show. He's a thinker and provides an interesting and often nuanced alternative to everything else. He's like Rush Limbaugh in that respect.

I've been turning off FOX News or looking for something else after Tucker's show.



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

I don't find any of these news channels to be credible. They exist purely for entertainment value.

Check out this story that came up this morning!

And, frankly I am not a bit surprised the FAUXNEWS canceled Dobbs. He told it like it was and the management there can't stand to have that come out.

Fox News is on at 8:00 PM sharp in my house, and typically the TV is either muted or switching to NetFlix before Hannity can utter a syllable.

Now that Lou Dobbs is gone, Tucker Carlson is THE one hour of TV I will watch per day, and the ONLY hour of TV I trust to provide credible info. Honestly, FOX really showed their cards on election night and have been dead to me since 11/4. It seems I'm not the only one with this opinion as their viewers have left them en masse! The fact that their ratings tanked as quickly as they did, and they're now third behind CNN & MSNBC is amazing. It's one thing for all these virtue signaling 'woke corporations' to piss off half of their customer base, but FOX has turned on the VAST majority of their viewers, and it's clearly evident in their ratings!

I will likely cancel my cable (Comcast Roll Eyes ) in the very near future, and get Internet only service, as I'm fairly certain I can get most of the key Tucker Carlson segments on YouTube, though slightly delayed. I haven't really been enthralled w/ what I've seen on Newsmax, and I'm not getting ANY value from 'the Bundle' I'm paying for now anyway. Plus, I'd rather give Comcast as little of my money as possible!

Fox News Axes Lou Dobbs' Show; Top-Rated Pro-Trump Host Not Expected Back on the Air

Fox News has canceled ''Lou Dobbs Tonight,'' the program hosted by one of the media's most steadfast supporters of Donald Trump and the former president's claims of voter fraud, the Los Angeles Times reported Friday.

Dobbs' program, which has been airing twice nightly at 5 and 7 p.m. ET on the Fox Business Network, will be replaced next week with ''Fox Business Tonight,'' with rotating substitute hosts Jackie DeAngelis and David Asman, who filled in for Dobbs on Friday. This, according to a Fox rep who confirmed the news to the Times.

Dobbs, 75, remains under contract at Fox News, the newspaper said, but his future on the conservative news network is murky.

The cancellation comes a day after a large voting software company, Smartmatic, filed a $2.7 billion defamation suit against Fox News and three of its hosts — Dobbs, Maria Bartiromo and Jeanine Pirro. The company said the hosts helped to spread lies about Smartmatic's role in the presidential election, to the detriment of its reputation and its business.


Fox News has been in turmoil as long-time viewers have abandoned the channel since Election Day. Former President Donald Trump has attributed his election loss to Joe Biden to unfair coverage by Fox News as well as massive voter fraud.

Dobbs was signed to Fox News by its former chief executive Roger Ailes in 2011. As the Times noted, he has long been the company's most outspoken supporter of Trump's economic and immigration policies. In the weeks after the election, the paper said, he went on the air to express anger that the Republican Party did not do more to act on claims that the election was rigged in favor of Biden.

The firing of Dobbs will add weight to critics' claims the network has gone soft backing conservative views.

Fox has also been reeling as its ratings have been in a tailspin as the network has dropped to third place behind CNN and MSNBC.

Newsmax appears to be the main beneficiary as its viewership has soared. Newsmax is now the 4th highest-rated cable news channel in the U.S.

Fox, in response, demoted long-time evening host Martha MacCallum to a day-time slot as Newsmax's ''Greg Kelly Reports'' has surged.

Check out the item above! It was live a few minutes ago, and truly enlightening as to how the election was stolen. It presented real EVIDENCE from experts. I only got to see maybe the last 20 minutes, but it was bone chilling. With LOTS of real evidence of just how far china intruded and manipulated our election.

Funny how Frank can be SO ACCURATE when it comes to predicting the future. Oh well, NewsMax is waiting....FredT


If you can get them, check out OANN!

They just had a spectacular show, with tons of evidence & real time commentary regarding the stolen election. And it was stolen as we all know. It also showed just how deep china was involved.

Only a matter of time.

I'd love to get OANN, but my cable company (Spectrum) doesn't carry it. I only watch Tucker, Hannity, Ingraham, and Pirro on Fox now. I get my actual news from the web (a lot here).

I don’t know about Ingraham, but think Hannity is about as conservative as Rachel Maddow. He is a phony and a fake.

Maybe I'm tuning in at the wrong times of day to see the whole Fox-has-left-us-behind thing. I get a bit of Fox and Friends on the morning commute, and then some of The Five in the evenings. Based on only that, I'm not seeing solid reason for the recent dump-on-Fox trend. Confused




God bless America.

Well, that's the silliest thing I've read today.

One example: Years ago, I would listen to his radio show. He had some Hollywood leftist on and proceeded to grovel and kiss their ass in a way no self-respecting conservative would have.

Well I won’t go as far as that, but I am very jaded on Hannity. Lou Dobbs was still bringing relevant and insightful reporting out, Hannity not so much in my opinion.
