Outrageous demand by Fox News

Fox News is telling everyone in media not directly affiliated with them that the August 23rd Republican debate is exclusively theirs and no one is allowed to air any clips of the broadcast beyond three total minutes, and never again after a 7 day window.  In other words, they’re treating this debate as if it’s an NFL or MLB broadcast.  It’s not.  This has never been done and deserves a legal challenge.

Another reason to hope Trump snubs them.  Ratings will suck without his draw.
For unvaccinated, we are looking at a winter of severe illness and death — if you’re unvaccinated — for themselves, their families, and the hospitals they’ll soon overwhelm. Sloe Joe Biteme 12/16
I will NOT comply.

Yes the ratings will suffer some without Trump to draw in their audience, but I for one am looking forward to watching a debate on the issues (hopefully) rather than insulting one another. I don't want to watch Trump's bullying and theatrics. I've had enough.

Guarantee though, if the candidates take aim at Trump during the first debate without him being there, he'll make it to the second one.

As if their ratings and cable in general aren't already sliding in to the sewer.
The Republic is lost.
