Fox News has been out of touch with conservatives for a long time now, it’s just that people are finally starting to realize it. Forget the whole fued with Donald Trump for a second. Watch any interview conducted with a Ted Cruz and you will hear the nastiness and disdain the have. The so called ‘conservatives’ at Fox News like Brit Hume, Charles Krauthammer, Karl Rove, George Will all have an attitude where if you don’t agree with us on amnesty you are too stupid. Even Sean Hannity, once thought to be a strong ‘conservative’ is openly dissing people on his Twitter account for question his stance on issues and candidates.
Then you have the so called ‘straight news’ people like Bill O’Reilly, Megyn Kelly, Shepard Smith and Chris Wallace. You know the history with Bill O’Reilly. Megyn Kelly is now the darling of the liberal left media after bashing Ted Cruz and Donald Trump routinely on her show. Shepard Smith is an obnoxious flaming hack and Chris Wallace only has his job because of his father’s legacy. Just today on their ‘straight news’ program, they brought on zombie Bob Dole to bash Ted Cruz.

Still don’t believe me? Would you believe Rush Limbaugh then?
And I’m here to tell you: Fox News is not considered the conservative network that it used to be. I’m not trying to stir anything up here. I’m saying that when you hear the media, who are all leftists, talk about Fox News, it may as well be the John Birch Society as far as they’re concerned. That’s why they hate it. It may as well be the Birchers. It may as well be whatever evil right-wing organization. That’s what they think it is.
But you go out to the heartland of this country, and it’s not so much. “I mean, what would a conservative network be doing giving time to Michael Moore?” “Why would New York Times and Washington Post reporters be on the air to give opinions on a conservative network?”
This is what people are saying out there that I hear. Now, the identity is still pretty obviously heavily tilted to news and analysis that you don’t get anywhere else, and that remains true. I’m just telling you people’s perceptions as they share them with me. I’ll tell you what I think, ’cause I find it amazing. It’s just more evidence of the media being out of touch and not really knowing what people say.
