the reason its happening is IT'S NOT FOX! fox is a decoy.

republican radio does the groundwork repetition for everything fox. every day it lays out a prechewed smorgasbord of bullshit sandwiches for MSM and fox blockheads to graze on

differences-

-there are plenty of easy to reach free alts to fox for politics on tv -rw radio is the only free easy political source for most parts of the US while driving or working

-fox cannot be coordinated on a local level like rw radio can

-fox is being watched and recorded. rw radio is practically invisible to the left. talk radio blowhards lie all they want and the left never notices

fox is incapable of the coordinated national repetition talk radio can do - talk radio buzz is unbeatable - 400 different blowhards screaming the same exact shit and no one gets in their face- how can that not be believed?

ignoring rw radi is the biggest political mistake in history
