The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Reporting relayed by TYT tonight:

Piece carried by CNN basically supports that narrative, that Barfaromo tried to go over Fox management's head, to Trump.

Fox News abruptly ousts Maria Bartiromo, a longtime Trump ally

Bartiromo's disclosure dates back to mid-July, when Trump delivered a prime time speech about the election system and made conspiratorial claims about China and the 2020 election.

According to Status and Puck, two media industry publications, Bartiromo wanted to talk about Trump's claims on air.

But a Fox executive directed the network not to cover the conspiracy theories, the source confirmed to CNN.

Bartiromo apparently sent a text message of the network guidance to White House officials, as if to say it wasn't her fault that the claims weren't getting airtime on Fox.

Word of Bartiromo's disclosure got back to Fox management, and it was deemed a violation of her employment agreement.


currently.att.yahoo.com - Maria bartiromo fox part ways

That "as if to say it wasn't her fault..." may be CNN covering it's rear. rather than saying "trying to get Trump to order Fox to carry her screed".

Trump delusions so nuts, even Fox won't feed them.
