🚨 NEW: Greg Gutfeld just REVEALED why Fox News drives the rest of the media crazy:
“The biggest thing Fox gave American media wasn’t just an alternative — what we gave the media was you, the audience, who then created something called competitive pressure.”
“For years now, Fox has been the highest-rated cable news network, often by a wide margin. And with an audience like that, it increases the cost of ignoring important stories. Because if Fox is willing to cover something that everyone else refuses to, millions of people are still gonna hear about it.”
“And eventually, the other guys have to join us, or their biases become even more transparent, their lies become obvious. Look at the border. For years, the numbers on border encounters, gotaways, repeat crossings, and crimes committed by illegals were public, yet the national press avoided the subject the way Kamala Harris avoids O’Doul’s.”
“And they framed any attention to those stats or lax border enforcement or victims of illegal crime as xenophobic. Meanwhile, Fox led with the monthly numbers. We sent our guys down there, showed people the story the others thought beneath them. People paid attention, spoke up. And that put more pressure on the media than Chris Christie’s Spanx after Thanksgiving.”
“Then there’s government fraud, COVID relief theft, Medicare scams — billions of dollars, sometimes tied to immigrant networks. Those facts cut against preferred narratives, so they were buried.. But our persistent coverage raised the cost of ignoring them. Same with crime.”
“Fox News covered the victims while CNN denied there were any. We were the first to take on the woke identity politics, DEI. Sorry, we weren’t just the first — we were the only. We got grief over questioning the origins of the COVID virus until, of course, we turned out right.”
“Then there’s Trump. At Fox, you could hear his arguments without references to Hitler, which brings us to the media itself. When Fox covered a story and millions could watch it, other news organizations had to explain why they ignored it to their ever-dwindling viewers. That’s competition.”
“So after 30 years, maybe Fox’s biggest contribution.. is that it unleashed a pressure on mainstream media to do their job, and that pressure was you. And yeah, our competitors still lie and cheat, but now they have nowhere to hide when they’re caught,” adds @greggutfeld.
🚨 BOOM! JD Vance just dropped this line and walked off stage in Texas:
"Will you vote for the future we want to leave for our children here in Texas? Are we going to vote to send KEN PAXTON to the United States Senate? My friends, Texas has NEVER voted for somebody else to fight its battles!"
"So this November, let's send KEN PAXTON to Washington and let's get back to work for the United States of America. God bless you, Texas!" 🇺🇸
Texas went DEEP RED in 2024 and voters are NOT suddenly pro-socialist and pro-trans in less than 2 years.
That is ALL Talarico would be. A rubber stamp for Hakeem Jeffries, Chuck Schumer and all the socialist BS they put up for a vote!
TX might decide who controls the US Senate. VOTING RED IS THE ONLY WAY.
