So Faux News are saying its a landslide for Trump

[brettdale]

Apparently hes even going to waltz in, in New Hamsphire, and its more than likely
the election will be a landslide.

The election itself is rigged.

So my question...

Does Faux News actually want a riot when Clinton wins, do they want people to
die, just for higher ratings.

They seem to be begging for people to get violent.

Are they that bad?

Am I over reading it.

Also, would it be fair to say, that Faux news fans, hate women more than Black men?

[MFM008]

1. Gee and I was so hoping we would win

California and Mass......................................

[Control-Z]

2. Absolutely they hate women

more than they hate black men.

That is the only question I can answer. I have no idea about the rest. Scary, isn't it?

4. I profoundly disagree nt

[Miles Archer]

16. Roger Ailes: "I hope you're not wearing panties."

With all due respect, I profoundly disagree with your profound disagreement.

Maybe "hate" is too strong of a word. Maybe Fox doesn't "hate" women.

If there's anything profound here, it's a profound lack of respect for women.

Murdoch's sons nipped the Ailes thing in the bud. They knew there was no way to defend his actions, they knew there was no way to deal with an ongoing P.R. nightmare. They went to Rupert and said "He's got to go," so they wrote the check for his mammoth golden parachute, and he's gone....working with Trump to "Make America Great Again."

17. I am so not saying they don't hate women, but the primordial

fear, hate, constant predation against POC , especially black American men (although as a lesbian black woman I have experienced a multiplicity of instutionalised prejudices and racism/sexism at formal and informal levels as well) is far more nefarious in both intent, subconscious projections, and outcome.

Race in the USA is where the most virulent hatred is always displayed.

6. Thats what I think

There was always the BS about President Obama, not being born in the USA,
that he was going to ban xmas, and stop future elections and the other crap
he put up with.

But the pure hatred that Clinton has put up with from Faux news is beyond me.

Last couple of days, they've have been saying the phrase "The election is rigged"
more than they've have been saying "Fair and Balanced"

I honesty think they know Clinton is going to win, but they want to plant a seed
in their viewers minds, that she has rigged it, because they want violence, real
violence.

Its sickening and scary.

[cstanleytech]

8. Well the real purpose of the seed planting now is to use it down

the road to get stricter voter ID laws passed so as to reduce the voting ability of minorities as well as the poor and disabled as they tend to vote for Democrats more often than they do for Republicans.

9. I Despise Fox News

but I think that perhaps one alternative reason that they may be pushing the idea of a rigged election is to motivate their conservative audience to get so angry that they get out and vote. If the viewers think it's rigged, they may be more likely to vote, to try to overwhelm the "liberal cheaters" who might steal the election from them. If I thought that Trump had some way to try and rig the election, I know I would be even more highly motivated to vote for Hillary. Obviously, I can't say for sure what Fox's motivation is, but it's in their best interest to have a close election. That gives them years of programming about how the Obama "regime" barely managed to overcome the strong Conservative vote, and all the other absolutely crazy conspiracy theories they can promote. And this is why we have to GOTV and create a landslide for Hillary and our Democratic leaders up and down the ticket.

[JHB]

11. Conservatives wrote this playbook in 1992...

Heck, they had draft versions in 1991.

As the pro-business, ok-with-death-penalty governor of a Southern "right to work" state, Bill Clinton didn't fit the then-successful Republican caricature of Democratic candidates: tax&spend, soft on crime, anti-business, welfare-loving liberal.

So they created a new caricature: Bill and Hill were every hippie they ever hated, with Hillary getting a double-dose by being every feminist they ever hated. Remember Gingrich's line about "countercultural McGoverniks"?

Then, always keep them under a cloud of suspicion: throw turdball after turdball at them. If something sticks, great! If it just sloughs off, well, then it joins the ever-rising pile at their feet, the one with the great fog bank of steam rising off it. And then, point with alarm at the cloud and say "Where there's smoke...."

They did that from "Bill renounced his citizenship" to "Clinton trashed the White House", kept it up through Hillary's senate term and 2008 primaries, and used the same playbook against Obama with racism added to the mix.

Of course they're planting seeds against her presidency. They already have. Benghazi Benghazi Benghazi!

[Skittles]

7. ABSOLUTELY CORRECT

[cwydro]

3. I never watch Fox News.

So I have no idea.

[whathehell]

5. Isn't this basically what they were saying about Romney in 2012?

I remember that they were all shocked when Obama won.

[MFM008]

10. They are going to need

A shock from the paddles on the heart on Nov 8.

[Warren DeMontague]

13. oh, I'm sure they know what's going on.

I suspect this is about fighting a doom and disengagement avalanche among their viewership which would result in the GOP getting even more soundly screwed than they already look to.

[Warren DeMontague]

12. it'll just make tuning in to them on election night that much more fun.

[beachbum bob]

14. my sweetest memory from 2012 is

the on air meltdown of Karl Rove when Ohio was called for Obama......Rove waste over $100 million bucks that year in losing effort....we will see the same this year when the landslide happens....

[BumRushDaShow]

18. And that memory is still alive and well!

And they had to remind him the next day, and he was still fighting it -

[C_U_L8R]

15. No wonder the alt-dopes think it's all rigged

they've been fed a constant diet of bullshit
that says they're winning - their world is going
to crumble down on election day. What Fox News
is doing is criminal. What their audience is
believing is pathetic.

[treestar]

19. They want to claim Hillary's presidency is not legitimate

because it is not accepted by the Deplorable, which of course are their viewer base.

[Generic Other]

20. A slippery slope is a landslide too

An avalanche is too. Unfortunately, the person experiencing it is not on top. They are at the bottom. Clawing their way out.

So for once, Faux is almost telling the truth.

[jcgoldie]

21. I can't stomach Fox News, but how can they claim a 'Trump landslide" when..

Their own polling shows Clinton winning (albeit by less than everyone elses)?

[SDJay]

23. Is Dick Morris At It Again?

Remember when that dimwit proclaimed a Mittens landslide despite all scientific polling to the contrary?

That's one thing I've noticed from the RWNJs I know - they ALL completely bought the "Rmoney is going to win big" BS prior to 2012, and their jaws collectively dropped when the reality everyone with a functioning brain had already acknowledged before Election Day hit them in the forehead.

You'd think that would've taught them a lesson. Nope. Still kicking, screaming, plugging their ears, closing their eyes and throwing your basic toddler-level temper tantrum, this time before we even vote.

[get the red out]

26. Yes!

I recall being told "You know Obama isn't going to be re-elected don't you?", as if I was the one in fantasy land. I can't believe they are falling for it again. And they will be tuning right back to Faux to see how the election got "stolen" after their dreams are once again crushed.

Pretty good marketing plan, really.

[wysi]

27. Stop watching Fox, Brett

You do know that you can block Fox on your MySky.

28. Violence=ratings=add revenue

If it bleeds, it leads.
