Because he cannot completely control fox news they are the last hurdle for getting his base to completely ignore any news that he cannot completely control.

If that's the case, it might have something to do with i. I recall they are not Trumpanzees like their father is.

The competing controversies could not have come at a worse time for Fox. This week, Rupert Murdoch kicked off a new era for the network he founded: the $71.3 billion sale of 21st Century Fox to Disney was finalized, leaving behind a new, smaller company, Fox Corporation, home to Murdoch’s remaining assets. The highly profitable remains, to be run by Rupert’s son Lachlan, include Fox News — which generates more than $1 billion annual profits — as well as Fox Business, Fox Sports and the Fox broadcast network.

in a big way. I think they will come around and make it possible for Democrats to accept their debate invitation. Not kissing the Buffoon's behind every waking breath might be part of the answer to this.
