After years of being Number 1 in Cable News, FOX News has suddenly fallen to third place, behind CNN and MSNBC.

MadWorldNews Social media is buzzing with claims that Tucker Carlson blasted Fox News and Neil Cavuto badly on Monday night, even though he didn’t specifically mention them by name. “You can’t just cut away from coverage you don’t like. You can’t simply tell people to accept an outcome… because force doesn’t work in a democracy. That’s a dictatorship,” Carlson said.
The 51-year-old newsman opened up his program by blasting those who suppress dissenting opinions. Carlson did not name anyone outright, but it was crystal clear who he was likely targeting.
Cavuto came under fire on Monday when he cut away from a press conference held by White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany, who was providing evidence of alleged voter fraud. Cavuto told the Fox audience that the network cannot continue to air her “false claims” in “good conscience.”
“Woah, woah, woah. I think we have to be very clear. She’s charging that the other side is welcoming fraud and illegal voting.
Unless she has more details to back that up, I can’t, in good countenance, continue showing you this.”@TeamCavuto cuts away from @KayleighMcEnany. pic.twitter.com/04VloVma9r

Several hours later, Tucker was angry. Cavuto’s snub was so egregious, Carlson seemingly took a swipe at him and his own network:
“You can’t just cut away from coverage you don’t like. You can’t simply tell people to accept an outcome… because force doesn’t work in a democracy. That’s a dictatorship,” Carlson said. “In a free society, you have to convince the public of your legitimacy. You have to win them over with reason. Democracy is always a voluntary arrangement. Telling voters to shut up is never enough.”
“So much for those claims that ‘voter fraud never happens,’” Carlson said. “Of course it happens. They knew it happened when they told us it never happens because they’re liars. But gathering facts is the last thing our media, our designated fact gatherers wants to do.”
“Instead they are demanding that you shut up and accept Joe Biden, period,” Carlson explained. “That’s their verdict and you must accept it. And if you don’t accept it, they’ll hurt you.”
The Tweets following this incident say it all about former FOX loyalists’ opinion of FOX News (post Roger Ailes) now. Can’t say I disagree.
Behind CNN? That’s really really bad.
I disconnected my cable around 2016. Fed up. My friends all watch OAN, however.
This present generation inherited a Democratic Republic, not good enough for many, like joe $ellout obiden and his minions. This crud has been working for decades to change the laws, constitution, culture and society to their benefit where the USA becomes a dhimmicrat republic, endorsing sharia. Fox steps up to censor what they want the deplorables and chumps to learn of. Piss on ’em.
Actually, we are a Constitutional Republic. Also, the word democracy does not appear in our Constitution or Declaration of Independence. Tucker knows the difference, and yet continues using the word democracy; very deceitful and disingenuous.
TBH, Murdoch tolerated idiots like Kristol and put Juan Williams on the payroll for a cool million a year for starters after NPR canned him. Under Murdoch’s reign, other liberal hacks Jehmu Green, Sally Kohn and a few others were brought onboard to tout the “Fair & Balanced” shtick. I quit watching them 5 years ago.
Newsmax is tolerable, OAN is better IMHO
Problem is, the fair and balanced idea is shifting to majority leftist,
The media are the Gate Keepers of Truth and our Freedom. Despicable Fox news joined CNN and the rest of the media traitors in attacking and smashing the Gates of our Freedom.
Strong, courageous, American patriot, truth teller Tucker Carlson for President 2024!
We can all complain here about Caputo’s censoring McEnany. I was really shocked when I viewed it as it happened. I think Caputo was virtue signaling to the left. It was his effort to show that he shares their “high journalistic standards” without considering that the left does not display those standards at all. What they left employs is insincere editing to further political goals. Caputo may have not wanted to air a claim without evidence but his cutting her off did not allow for the evidence (direct or circumstantial) from being voiced. If he wanted to comment adversely about the lack of evidence or its weakness, then comment afterward. Bottom line: Who needs this guy and this behavior? This is not why Fox got the viewership it achieved. This kowtow will ruin it. Its what the left wants if it cannot knock it off the air (cable) or have it lose its FCC license. (Yep democracy is that fragile!) If my fellow BNI followers want to do something other than talk then I propose you each write (by whatever means: email, snail mail, telegram) directly to Fox & let them know how outrageous & unacceptable this was. Also you might inform Fox that you would consider alternate channels to view if this continues.
“Trump TV” rolls right off the tongue!
Bonnie, if I may—for anybody in the Sacramento area I’ve found an alternative to our pathetic birdcage liner The Bee. It’s called The California Globe.

Thanks, it’s nice finding out about new non-leftist sites.
Here’s another.
https://canadafreepress.com/
It just gets worse and worse.
Newsmax is just ok….it has a bias favoring establishment Republicans…a good site to visit which has plenty of links to truly conservative sites and writers is http://www.protrumpnews.com.
CT, thanks so much for that link.
The Epoch Times is a good source of unbiased news. It is available in the App store.
FOX stabbed President Trump in the back. When they did that, they stabbed Americans in the back. Except for Tucker, I haven’t watched them since election night. Although I like Tucker, the only reason he is on the TV, is because of my husband, who is a big supporter of Tucker. MAGA. Keep the faith.
I haven’t watched it at all since Election night. I will probably continue to watch Tucker and Laura. Hannity is too repetitive – “dirty water, dirty air, pushing grandma off a cliff, etc. etc.
Amen. But wasn’t it great, seeing how much power we have? We RUINED Fox. WE did that! Little old US!
That’s why as BNI says we mustn’t despair of having our beloved Pres. Trump continue in office.
I haven’t owned a TV in 40 years.
Try newsmax found it a couple days ago sounds like real news without the baseless commentary
Newsmax is pretty good.
A great video for anyone following the FOX treason. We hurt ’em bad and fast. Numbers don’t lie. Last few seconds of this vid are superb …….ARE WE READY FOR ….. ????
If, God forbid, Trump doesn’t win, I heard he will start a new Cable TV channel in direct competition with FOX.
Great News. Trump can do it.
I’m tired of all the lefties Fox brings to be fair and balanced. I just mute the sound so I don’t have to listen to their BS…
The other day Hannity had so many clips of the other lefty channels, it was too much…it was like watching them.I got sick and turned off tthe tv.
I get my news and commentaries from the conservatives on line and newsmax. There are a lot of good people we can still get news and opinions from them on line.
Too bad FXN has so many lefties, Obama and Clinton people.
I still watch Tucker , Hannity, Laura, Judge Jeanine, Mark Levin, Maria Bartiromo, ..That’s pretty much it.
Truth from the Mouth of Murdoch Wife: Fox News Guilty As Charged

She’s a pig.
Oh Bonnie you are too nice.
Oh man! The worst kind!
Had to show you this! “Bill Gates is a wanker” (Corona Virus Song) https://www.brighteon.com/5b5f3679-a744-4fcc-ba93-2c351a6368af
LOL!
Happy Thanksgiving BNI!
Thank you.
Lwft you a bunch of great of stuff on GAB about 5 minutes ago.
I’m not posting on Gab anymore. Switched to Parler. Please post the stuff here.

The lie.

Eastern, you are only allowed to post one link per comment, so please post the other ones separately.
Apologies.
That’s OK. It’s necessary because some people would load a comment with links, some of which contained malware.
I totally understand! Some sorry people on this rock with us.
Do not love NewsMax; do despise Fox. The Salem network is an alternative to Fox/Cumulus.
I thought Salem was just radio.
Salem has close ties to three online sites and Hillsboro College plus Prager university.
Maybe they should create an anti-FOX TV channel.
I can’t say this is a big surprise personally.
For a while I’ve been suspicious of Fox News for a while.
This sham election result outed them as CNN pretending to be Republican siding.
Everything changed when Murdoch turned over control to his sons.
They’re leftists as well. Unfortunate they’re not as smart as their old man.
Exactly. Fox has been wolf in sheep’s clothing for some time.
Juan Williams, donna brazille, Marie harf; just a few examples.
Tucker and mark levin only 2 I totally trust!
Fox has lost most of it’s viewership. Part of the coup against our president.
Rupert Murdoch and his SS soldiers can burn in hell right next to Biden the corpse, kam. El a. And shiff!
#trumpmypresident
I like Laura, too.
Laura Ingram, Lou Dobbs, Hannity, Katy Pavlovich, Greg Gutfeld, Jesse Waters, Tammy Bruce, Charles Payne(he and Dobbs on fox bus.) a few others. They should flee fox, and with backing, start their own network. Tucker Carlson is their main draw, and they must keep him happy or really suffer. Bring back Bill O’Reilly?
Newsmax is good. Highly recommend War Room Pandemic, with Steve Bannon and Raheem Kassam.
I predict they will all flee to Trump TV, if the time comes.
Screw Focks News, Recommend Epoch News,
Here is some good news: https://gellerreport.com/2020/11/breaking-republicans-flip-nine-seats-in-california.html/
You must mean the “Epoch Times.” It is also conservative. I have a digital subscription, which is quite reasonably priced.
You can also download the app too
