(9,090 posts)fox gets fox gets a lot of the 'credit' for getting trump elected and keeping out of jail. fox actually has to pretend to be 'fair and balanced' and they can't go all in with trump
media needs to stop ignoring talk radio but will continue until democrats stop ignoring it
trump and limbaugh played golf the day after the mueller report was released, and this weekend they had lunch together. both times to send a message to senators thinking of crossing him. lmbaugh noted on his monday show that pictures of them together only get released if trump wants it to happen. trump does not intimidate anyone with hannity, except maybe lindsey graham
fox has basically always been the cartoon cliff notes for the repeated lying and attacks that only radio can do, with limbaugh setting the tone and his dittohead callers keeping the local blowhards in line
