Bannon Declares All-Out War on Fox News

Former Breitbart chairman Stephen K. Bannon, who also served as senior counselor and chief strategist to President Donald Trump, went scorched earth on Fox News at the recent Conservative Political Action Conference. The network’s softer stance on issues and the controversial Arizona returns during the 2020 election have drawn the ire of the Trump base, which was evidently on full display. Bannon virtually declared all-out war against Murdoch and vowed that he and the rest of the Trump camp would fight him every step of the way, with the ultimate goal of erasing any traces of the billionaire executive from his network (via Mediaite):

    As the speech continued the crowd got even more into it, especially when he attacked Fox News Channel specifically — first over the network’s infamous on the right decision to call Arizona for Joe Biden, and then for more recent transgressions such as cutting away from a Trump speech.

    “Look at Fox News,” he said. “The president announces his – this is historic. A guy gave you four years of peace and prosperity, announces he’s going to run again after having it stolen in broad daylight of which they participate in — They don’t even, they cover it live for 20 minutes and then they say if there’s anything newsworthy, we’ll cut back, and they go to some panel and some discussion.”

    “Note to Fox Senior management: When Donald J. Trump talks, it’s newsworthy,” shouted Bannon.

    […]

    He closed out with a threat to Murdoch.

    “Murdoch, you’ve deemed Trump’s not going to be president. Well, we’ve deemed that you’re not going to have a network,” he yelled as the audience stood again, waving, cheering, and applauding. “Because we’re going to fight you every step of the way!”

It's starting to look like Trump's election strategy is to keep making his pond smaller and smaller until he's the only fish in it.  Then it will just be him, his truest believers, and nobody else.

Permanently alienating the people you'd need to win a general election is just dumb.

Trump really is for small government.

What could be smaller than a government of one?

Yes, it does. And the result will be Biden's second term, or something much worse.

Fox News made the irreversible decision to jettison coverage of Donald Trump, the one true non-globalist Republican candidate for the presidency.

Stop being so afraid of letting the free market dictate the consequences for Murdock and Ryan.

Yes, it does.

No, it does not @mountaineer  This is Fox's decision.  Hold the perpetrators of the censorship accountable; not the target.
