    Fox News stops broadcasting Trump Rallies

    Fox News Stops Broadcasting Trump Rallies – White House Concerned

    Trump, no longer ratings gold, loses his prime-time spot on Fox News

    In a crucial period with the midterms less than a month away, some in the White House are worried that the president is losing a megaphone to his base.

    In the first year of his presidency, Donald Trump’s odd campaign rallies had been broadcasted live by pretty much every major news network, whether it was Fox News, CNN or MSNBC.



    As the months wore on, however, both CNN and MSNBC stopped broadcasting these rallies, instead opting to either cover highlights and outtakes from the events, or just not reporting on them at all.

    Now it appears as if Fox News has also decided that Trump rallies are not bringing in the viewership and ratings they once did, and has pulled the plug on full, live broadcasts.



    Fox News, the president’s preferred news network, made the decision apparently this week during a string of Trump rallies leading up to the midterm elections on November 6.

    During the rally on Saturday in Council Bluffs, Iowa, no major news network had the live broadcast, and even C-SPAN cut away from the rally in order to cover what they deemed to be more important news.


    Then, last night when Trump was speaking in Erie Pennsylvania, all three major networks covered Hurricane Michael, barely even touching on the president’s remarks at his event.

    Meanwhile, the White House is reportedly concerned that the President may be losing control of one of his most influential news platforms, Fox News, just ahead of the all-important midterm elections.

    According to Politico, a source close to the president described the declining coverage as a “huge loss on the state and local level for Republicans because they’re certainly not going to get any of that on other cable networks.”

    One senior White House official told Politico that the White House is going “to look into” why Fox News has decided to pull the plug on full, live broadcasts of the rallies.

    Trump in his rallies is not really much off of any other politician. You will not admit that but it is the truth.

    Somebody running for Sheriff of Possum County, Alabama? Yeah, sure. President of the United States? "Off" does not even begin to describe it.

    Pleasant surprise. It is interesting (and important to be informed) to know what he is saying, but when he just says the same $#@! over and over? Meh... there is real news to cover.

    Politicians are always using campaign rally’s to throw the proverbial red meat to their base. Some people are acting as if this is a recent phenomenon.
