So I commented this on another post, but feel it needs its own discussion:

I understand all the payback against Fox News for election night, but really wish Tucker and Hannity would move over to private platforms or OANN. I really don’t like those two being punished by proxy of the others.

Hannity has been a long time supporter and friend to Trump, and has overall gone above and beyond to try to set the facts straight with his viewers at home that other networks misreport. I very much disagree with the “election night crew”, and some of the following trash they have said as a network since, but Tucker and Hannity are still very much friends and not foes in my eyes. I would agree that it’s their problem and that they need to jump ship to more trustworthy outlets, but even with their imperfections I have to be the odd man out here in stating that they are still FAR better than Maddow, Lemon, Scarborough, and similar.

If Cuomo and Maddow are the top viewed news programs, it’s just over. Period. Not dooming at all, but it’s impossible to not see that they’ll win the long game. It’s not called television “programming” for nothing. Do so many pedes really hate Fox so much now that you’d bite of your nose to spite your face? Like, I get it. They failed GEOTUS when he/we needed their support the most. It’s fvcked up.. but scorched earth doesn’t work at this scale. Either it’s full blown revolution and we burn every damn news station to the ground besides OANN... or we accept friendly allies that have imperfections. We all speak out often about how we hate leftist indoctrination in our schools.. so why would we throw in the towel in mass media, let our allies fall, and allow Maddow to be the source of truth for the general unred-pilled public?

I don’t understand the long game. I fully get the punishment and showing them that they need to back truth and what’s right or pay the price. I’m not saying we should give them praise for their wrongs.. but I still think letting Fox die to prove a point is just a terrible chess move. Think ahead a bit guys. We need allies if we aren’t going to turn this country upside down right now.

I see a lot of talk, and I’m right there with you if the President calls for militias and taking things back in the name of truth and sanity. I really am. I do not own a firearm, but I’ve got a lightweight crossbow and have excellent marksmanship. I’m all in on being part of a local militia, and fully support our vets and law enforcement. My grandfather was a sniper who killed Nazi’s in WW2 and in the remaining Army of Occupation in Berlin. I very much respect guarding our constitution and our American way of life from insurgency of any kind. But it’s time to shit or get off the pot. If we do nothing, we’re looking at literally giving away the largest media broadcast network in modern history, just to teach them a lesson. Seems rushed. I think slow death is better for these networks. Reserve them now while things are still in the air, and dump them AFTER we get what we collectively need, and when there is both government programs to quell the fake news and new replacements emerge with more honesty and integrity.

Just thinking out loud here. I’m not saying anyone is wrong for hating on them. They screwed up at the worst damn time. I get it. I just think we need to think like lawyers now. What’s going to get us the best outcome now, and what’s going to give us the best advantage long term.. and weight those out.

Does nobody else see it the same way as I do? That’s said, I think daytime fox is trash and no different than CNN. Even their YouTube headlines are now identical. I guess they’re fed the same scripted brainwashing sources as the rest at this time. I just think it’s too soon to cast them off into exile before Tucker and Hannity migrate elsewhere. But they’ve been vocal about how they aren’t leaving. So I understand the “it’s their problem” feeling. I just still think they’re useful to Trump over the next 4 years, even as fair weather friends. Can’t run with YouTube channels and dot coms like Daily Wire and Epoch Times, which are immediately discredited as conservative extremist or evangelical outlets. OANN alone isn’t going to get through to enough Americans. Newsmax may not be fully pure of heart, but the hatred toward them lately also raises a red flag for me. I get it. They’re corporate slaves, and should never be fully trusted or supported blindly. But there is still the option to utilize them and hold them accountable without burying them all when they screw up.

Just my two cents. I respect everyone’s opinion on the matter regardless. I’m 100% with Trump, and would like to see him use any and all means necessary to get his 2nd term and also reimburse himself 3.5 years more in an unprecedented manor for the time wasted due to illegal spying on his way in and Russiagate when all is said and done. I think the bad players need to pay up with more time. If he gets too old before then, he can appoint his sons or whoever HE sees fit to continue his cleanup efforts so we can achieve his expectations of excellence in our beautiful country once more. Then when we are stable and safe from internal and external corruption and ideological threats against our founding documents, we can have a normal election and rely on a legitimate electoral process once again. End rant.

Have a happy and healthy new year Pedes!

I look forward to your thoughts about this.

All they have to do is start reporting the truth— that the election was evidently stolen. The ball is in their court. That goes for Tucker and especially Hannity,too.
