Your politics is good if it is popular -- it means that you WIN.

If not, what difference does it make what ratings they get? Is their accomplishment YOUR accomplishment too?

Just wondering since the conservs are always bragging about Fox's ratings as if there's some remuneration in it for them.

Sorry it bothers you that Fox is popular and Trump won.

In eight years, you'll have another chance.

Trump won. But what did you win?

And what benefit is it to you that Fox is popular?

You should already know that answer, but then again, you may be a Liberal and we have to explain it to you. Its like finding a Good Restaurant. If people give it good ratings, and more folks go there, than to another, you know what you eat there will be good. Its not Rocket Science, nor do you need a calculator to get an answer. Just plain common sense, which seems to be in short supply in some places.

CNN really screwed itself by so brazenly going all in for Clinton.

There is a lot in it for us. "The Truth." The Truth is priceless. The Truth will set you free. I know, I know, you folks don't see it, or understand it, but you have to be able to recognize Truth when you see it. If you don't know it, you can't see it. Sort of like looking for a Forest, but complaining about too many Trees in your way blocking your view.

It must be all the agenda pushing and blatant lying.
