LINK White House says it will 'look into' Fox News decision to stop airing Trump rallies after ratings plummet

is the Cool-aid wearing off? And why would the WH "look into" what Fox News decides to do? Does that mean Fox News is/was actually a government propaganda mouthpiece?

White House spokesperson this week promised to “look into” a Fox News decision to cease broadcasting of Trump campaign rallies in full.

According to The Daily Beast, the White House is concerned about losing a key platform just before the midterms. Instead of airing the rallies in their entirety, the network has taken to showing abbreviated clips of the events.

Rallies in recent days have drawn significantly lower ratings, Politico reported. In some cases, Trump rallies have fewer viewers than regular Fox News programming.

A senior White House official reportedly said that White House Communication Director Bill Shine, a former Fox News executive, was expected to be in talks with the network about the decision to nix live Trump rallies.

The officials said that Shine would “look into that.”

It all comes down to money...even the most "loyal" of his media supporters would toss him or anyone aside for their main love, the almighty dollar....it is purely business...he is not getting the ratings that he purports to know all about...so it should come as no surprise to him or his staff...

I would rather watch paint dry than to be subjected to his poorly constructed speeches and lies...it is like watching a flaying fish out of water

It's been abundantly clear from the beginning that fox and trump were join at - pick body parts your choice - from the moment he announced he was running.
The fairness doctrine's elimination has allowed the biased media exposure by BOTH parties, fox just seems to get so many facts incorrect and refuses to air things that put trump in a negative light even when it's big news. IMHO.

I think it's been clear what Fox News is for a long time now.
Just a mouthpiece for Trump and the Republican party. Its exactly the same as rt (Russian Television).

It's why people don't link to their stories and legitimize their sites by contributing to their revenue stream. If more and more turn them off in the ways we can now, then they just go back to being a joke.

I'm sure half of the people at those rallies aren't true Trump supporters, they're just there for the show........

It's been reported often how so many at his rallies are paid. People just haven't been paying attention.
