Maybe they are trying to get back some of those who got tired of their BS. Maybe it was one disgruntled staffer minding the Chyron.

While covering both the Biden speech at the WH and the Trump speech in Florida, the Chyron ran an interesting description.....

"Wannabe Dictator Speaks at the White House
After Having His Political Rival Arrested"

Truth hurts sometimes
I wondered if Trump had said that in his speech and they put it on the graphic. I didn't watch it last night.
Fox = tits on a boar

lol---honestly, that kind of ridiculously over the top slanted agenda driven language is pretty typical of chyron headings for the mainstream media these days. The only real difference is its aimed at Democrats rather than Republicans.
Ex-presidents are ALWAYS referred to as "President".

Unless they're Donald Trump I guess.
Fox News Finds out That Cutting Tucker Has Serious Consequences



Quote:Fox News has dominated the weekly rating now for 120 weeks.

But in the wake of the network cutting Tucker Carlson and his show in April, many viewers threw them over.

Now they are finding out that those actions may be resulting in serious consequences.

According to the Neilsen data, Fox has now tumbled out of first place.

Nielsen data regarding the week ending this past Sunday was shared on Twitter on Tuesday by A.J. Katz, a reporter specializing in the cable news business. According to the data, Fox’s primetime 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. ET viewership averaged 1,504,429. The average viewership for the more left-leaning MSNBC over the same time frame averaged 1,520,857, narrowly beating out the conservative network that has long been a leader in cable news viewership.

As Katz noted in a tweet, the data from last week marks the end of a lengthy streak of rating dominance for Fox News.

“Barring a last-second data reporting change, Fox’s 120-week-long winning streak in primetime appears to be over,” Katz wrote.

They’ve seen their viewership in Carlson’s former slot the 8 p.m. primetime slot drop by half, as they’ve tried to fill his slot with rotating hosts who aren’t him. But they’ve also lost viewership over their entire lineup.

That’s going to hit them where they live — right in the pocketbook because that was likely to make it harder for them to negotiate higher fees from cable providers, in addition to the downgrade in the ratings.

MSNBC has also been picking up viewers from CNN as some of the liberal viewers were throwing a hissy fit at the network attempting to be more objective under the stewardship of CEO Chris Licht.

Katz said they probably would take back the lead next week, but their lead would be decreased.

What’s funny on top of that is Tucker Carlson has launched his own Twitter show that is completely smoking Fox in the numbers. Fox has filed a cease and desist order since they claim Carlson is still under contract with them. But Carlson claims that they are the ones in breach. Meanwhile, his Twitter show is raking in millions of views, far more than anything on Fox.

He’s had three episodes so far and they’ve raked in over 216 million views in total so far, covering controversial issues. His last episode concentrated on the Trump indictment. His attorney Harmeet Dhillon also said she would not be appearing on Fox anymore either and urged others to reconsider their choices about doing so as well until Fox changed its ways.

Fox is at a crossroads. They have some decisions to make. Do they stop trying to be like the other networks or go back to what got them to network dominance: offering an alternative, being other than the liberal media? They are bleeding viewers now who may never come back. If they are only the same, why should any conservative stay? Beyond that, it’s about free speech, as Dhillon said. If you do not stand with what your base does, don’t expect the base to stay around.
Now thats how you quit a job folks
The problem at FOX news is they have not been making decisions based on journalistic integrity or business for the last 2 years. The family members in charge are worried far more about their cocktail party circuit invites than journalism, smart business, or common sense for that matter.
While that is true, the Murdochs have plenty of $$$ and are probably not at all worried about Fox News. Fox fell behind MSDNC in the ratings in the latest round.

You nailed it...

And then Tucker does a 13 minute twitter segment on this. Well done Fox and Bensinger. You took a chyron that maybe a half million people saw, and ensured that 100 million people would see you for the hypocritical idiots that you are.

He wasn't fired. He put in his two week notice because he was told not to do it again.

I don't think he should have been told not to do it, but I think it's important for people to report things accurately.

Please read what I wrote. I'm not debating something that has 0% to do with what I said.

Please read my actual post. Again if I say the sky is blue. I'm not going to respond to someone who says please explain why you think clouds are green.

And I'll make it super clear. He wasn't fired he was told not to do it again. The tweet said he was fired. That is what is factually incorrect. That's exactly what I said in my post as well. The chyron itself is not what I commented on. I did not call the chyron non factual. Since it's just an opinion. I called Citizen free press out for not posting actual facts.

Respond to my actual post or don't respond at all.
