Obama Blames Fox News for Trump
« on: November 30, 2016, 09:37:49 AM »
Just caught a snippet on the teevee where they quoted Obama, in a Rolling Stone interview, blaming Fox News for Trump's victory, because it's on in the background in too many bars and restaurants and airports in the country.  :laugh:

Kinda funny, because in all my travels, I've generally been disgusted by CNN and sometimes MSNBC playing in those types of places (when sports wasn't on to complain about). I think I can count on the fingers of one hand the number of times I've seen Fox on. 

If anything, the lack of Fox News in those venues is what got Trump extra votes, if you get my meaning.

I have spent a little time in airports.  If there is a TV on, it is usually on CNN since they have the airport news contract in many airports.

So a lowly cable news channel can trump the relentless efforts of the ABCNBCCBSMSNBCCNN Hillary media super-pac . . .

Nice.

Trump won in 2016. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.

Obama has to point the finger of blame at someone, because he can't bring himself to admit that, as well as being a rejection of Hillary, the election was perhaps as much a rejection of him, his administration, and his "legacy."

Seconded.  All in agreement, say 'Aye'.

If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.
