Evangelicals Might Ditch Fox News After the Breakup

According to an interview on Newsmax with Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council, Fox News could be the big loser in the breakup with Tucker Carlson.

“I think this tells us a lot more about Fox than it does Tucker Carlson. This is the continuation of Fox’s devolution.” said Mr. Perkins “This is not the first popular conservative talk show host that they’ve kicked to the curb. We had [Bill] O’Reilly; we had Glenn Beck, even Megyn Kelly. They’re shedding their conservative skin, is what they’re doing,” he said.

“We’ve watched this process over the last decade, and it’s interesting when we look at our constituency, which we describe as really the core of the evangelical community,” he said.

“They’re informed about what’s going on. Tucker was the only reason they were going to Fox.

Fox is going to lose a huge demographic for their audience by booting Tucker,” he said.

Perkins said Fox is following a sad pattern.

“I think Fox is going to be the big loser here,” he said. “I think Fox is going to end up in line with MSNBC — just another has-been network.”

“Fox is kind of like what we used to see in Republican picks for the Supreme Court prior to the last administration. They start out as if they were conservative, and they end up becoming just another swamp creature, and I think that’s what’s happened with Fox,” he said.

Listening to what Mr. Perkins said, I wonder if that isn’t true of a lot of Catholics, especially Hispanic Catholics. Many are liberal but are anti-abortion, gender ideology for children, etc., so they watch Tucker.

It does seem like Mr. Perkins is right. Fox is caving and following a familiar pattern. We should worry about losing Fox. Rupert Murdoch is elderly, and his sons probably can’t run a conservative outlet. There are rumors they are trying to sell. The Left would buy it to destroy it. We have a problem that goes beyond Tucker. Perhaps we can only rely on alternative media for the truth.

Tucker made mistakes, but overall, he was giving us a lot of accurate information that we didn’t necessarily get elsewhere. Fox has a decent-sized megaphone.

At this moment, there is no official reason. Only speculation.
However, most reports insist that it has to do with Carlson’s criticism of Dominion Voting Systems during the 2020 election.
In other words…
You speak out against Biden, and you’re blacklisted.
And… are we surprised?
This happens every single day.
No one is safe – not even rich, powerful, and well-connected celebrities.
That’s why I believe…
If you’ve ever voted Republican…
If you’ve ever criticized inflation or the current administration on social media…
If you’ve ever condemned rioting in cities…
If you have spoken out against BLM or ANTIFA or the grooming of your children by a homosexual, depraved elite.
Then you are at risk.
Imagine losing your job, simply because you don’t agree with the party in charge?
Having your retirement expropriated?
Being jailed on some false charge?
Being harassed, assaulted, robbed, or  murdered by one of the millions of criminals released and imported ito our neighborhoods.
Having your store or business looted by mobs of rioting thugs who will not be arrested or prosecuted
Being charged with some horrendous crime if you attempt to defend yourself for your family
Having your police being intimidated, not allowed to protect you, your family or your property
Having to wade through hordes of homeless drug addicts and mentally disturbed camped on your streets and neighborhoods
Having to somehow survive new diseases deliberately released by you rown government
Being discriminated against because you are a person of faith
Being discriminated against because you have “white privilege.”
That, my friends, is the reality of living in America in 2023.
And the worst of all is that these woke, Maoist thugs are moving us towards nuclear war.
Now is the time to find a new home where we can thrive and prepare a response for when they finally fail. Let’s be the remnant that returns and restores the Republic, an 
If you agree,then it’s time to visit nukerefuge.com and begin your journey to safety.. Download their Nuclear War Survival Manual. 
Be part of the remnant that will return to once again  light the shining light on the hill that our forefathers lit 250 years ago. And, never forget the old truism, “What foes not destroy you makes you stronger.”.

It is a wonder that they let Carson have his say for so long. Fox was one of the worst ‘swamp critters’ as they used Carson to ‘lure in’ the unsuspecting…to tarnish them with their ‘real drivel’….The big warning was when they hired Donna….

O’Reilly, Beck and Kelly are hardly conservatives, they have erratic records and have exhibited irrational behavior. I see no mention of Dobbs or other real conservatives who left Faux. Perkins must be naive.

Sean Hannity will be a big loser too. He will be forced to the left and I don’t think he has Tucker’s resolve.

Well, Hannity already supports Ukraine, says the 2020 election was legit, wanted everyone to get jabbed, …. so I consider him to not be on the right. I consider him to be on the take. One of his heroes is Graham, who is now working to help the dems get leftist judges through committee.
