Rats leaving the sinking ship

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.

"Looking for a new outlet"

Amazingly, but to no one's surprise, Dastardly Don is openly admitting he sees news outlets as nothing more than PR machines.

What about OANN?  That's certainly Trump-favorable.  And that's an understatement.

Also, Cavuto expected this, I'm sure.  They'd like to get him fired.  Or "Shepard Smith'd" as somebody put it.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.

He says he's taking hydroxychloroquine

And he probably has stock in it.

That's not all Cavuto said.  Listen to the clip.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.

UPDATE:

Indeed.

And I'm wondering how a civilian would get access to/a prescription for HQ outisde of a clinical trial or for treating malaria, arthritis or lupis.

UPDATE:

"Maybe it does. Maybe it doesn't. I'm not a doctor."

Jesus.

Yeah, he's got stock.

UPDATE:

Aaaand they're off!

UPDATE:

LOL.

UPDATE:

“Not a chance,” said [former Trump Organization executive vice president Barbara] Res. [...] “I don’t think he would subject himself to any potential harm. He wants everyone to think he’s taking it and to think everything he has said all along about it has been right. That’s what he wants. That’s why he’s saying he’s taking it.”

[...]

“He’s going to prove that he was right,” said Sam Nunberg, a former Trump political adviser, “when everybody else said he was wrong.”

[...]

“He’s got to tell those people, ‘Of course I’m taking hydroxy,’” former Trump White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci explained. “‘They’re telling you it doesn’t work, but I’m telling you it does. I am your chief of the red tribe of Trump.’”

Fox News' Neil Cavuto lays out Trump's lies

"Your base probably might not care.  But you should.  I guess you're too busy draining the swamp to ever stop and smell the stink you're creating.  That's your stink."

Fox News.

UPDATE 5/5:

Cavuto, predictably, got backlash from Trumpettes.  He responded on air.

No Wonder Fox News Has Relevancy Problems

This guy is the managing editor of business news.

Neil Cavuto, Fox News' senior vice president and managing editor of business news, doesn't know how inflation works. In a segment about living-wage activists, Cavuto boasted of having once earned $2/hour as a teenager—except that when adjusted for inflation, he was actually making about $9.47/hour, which is $2.22 above the federal minimum wage. (That, and he was a teenager living with his parents, not a 32-year-old woman with two kids; there's also that.)

As John Oliver tells us....



(I'm really liking John Oliver replacing Jon Stewart. It's supposed to be temporary. Maybe everyone will have second thoughts when Stewart returns from his film-making.)
