    It is the only cable network that many regime officials will give an interview and the one that the Liar in Chief quotes all the time. It looks like it is the mouthpiece of the Regime.

    Maybe they stopped giving interviews to networks that twisted his words and had a habit of taking remarks out of context. Would you give an interview to someone who was going to selectively pick apart what you said and use it to make you look bad?

    From what I remember, towards the end of the primaries Trump threatened Fox that he wouldn't do interviews for them and would bring all the ratings to another network if they didn't stop saying untrue things about him.

    Is CNN the mouthpiece of the Democratic Party?

    I've never spoken to any journalist, and would never speak to any of them about anything, no matter what network they work for -- just turn immediately and walk slowly away, never speak so much as a mumblin' word.

    Is the point of this thread trolling or just searching out confirmation of your violent alt left biases?

    Obama gave Fox News a number of interviews, even though they were ripping him a new one every day. Guess that's the difference between someone with an intact sense of self and someone who has a fragile ego.

    Is there a Republican in office? If its a Democrat then its MSNBC or CNN if its a Republican then its Fox News. This isn't new.

    So....trolling then. And being such a "Poe" about it that I can't tell if you are an extreme TDS sufferer, or a caricature of one.
