History Shows Again and Again...


...that Fox News meatheads don't care who serves up their drug of choice.

Bitter, reactionary old pervert?  

Slutty blond succubus? 

Weepy fascist circus clown?  

Tommy Hitlerfiger preppy Proud Boy?

Doesn't matter. 

As long as Fox keeps the drug coming it does not matter.  

Even if their new supplier is a smarmy taint-lemur -- 


-- who is objectively stupider than everyone else who has been in that chair.
Fox News’ Ratings Are Bouncing Back After Tucker Carlson

Tucker Carlson’s surprise ouster from Fox News in April promised to answer a long-standing question regarding the network: Is the host at the 8 p.m. hour the star of the show, or is it the prime-time hour that draws in the audience? Four months later, an answer is becoming clearer.

When a rotating cast of Fox News regulars hosted the 8 p.m. slot in the immediate weeks after Carlson left, viewership dropped to 1.49 million per night, roughly half of the industry-leading audience under the ex-host. As the Washington Post reports, the numbers for the entire prime-time lineup were down in the first post-Carlson week, from 2.6 million viewers to 1.6 million. For a week or two there, the network actually lost its top spot on cable news to MSNBC.

But with longtime on-air talent Jesse Watters providing some regularity in the prime-time billing since July 17, the audience is bouncing back. Nielsen ratings show that Fox averaged 2.2 million total viewers from 7 to 11 p.m. over the past four weeks, up from 1.6 million in the previous four-week period.

"taint-lemur"

I'm stealing this phrase.

junkies are focused, they do the work...and these guys are addicted to fox, to trump..

it is not easy finding a hidey-hole where assholes are venerated and bullshit blather soothes the jangled psyche of the hopeless. these are the guys that pledged allegiance to the strange, not the nation, the guys that need someone to say their hatey, feary, greedy bigotry is swell..perfect if you will.

they have been broken by life as they never considered changing to embrace it..women are inferior, we don't share with 'them', the commons irrelevant, the climate is irrelevant and the future is irrelevant. our god says what the 'prophet' in the shiny suit says..education ruins people and all voting equally creates intolerable governance.

fox is happy to do the dirty work...to help the viewership avoid the real enemy...the mirror.
