Rush Limbaugh: O'Reilly Departure Was Not ‘Natural' ‐ It was a ‘Campaign'
2017-04-21
BLUF: [Breitbart] [Sons of Fox News owner Rupert Murdock] One of their wives works for the Clinton Global Initiative. One of the wives when this New York Times story, ’You can’t keep the man on the air you just can’t this is embarrassing. It’s embarrassing to us, it’s embarrassing to dad company. You can’t do this.’ And the fact that the story ran on The New York Times was such a profound shock, sadness, and embarrassment that they felt that had to do something. That is why the fact that is started on The New York Times is crucial. There is two reason it is important. The Times is not just appearing out of nothing out of the ether.

Here’s the timeline, story New York Times. How long did it take before you started hearing about massive advertiser defections, just a day, right? You think that was natural? No, this was a campaign, folks. That’s why this is so frustrating to me, even after all this time, these campaigns are not immediately spotted for what they are. Therefore, people are not able to deal with them. And this one should have been expected given what’s been going on the last two years there. Tey should have been ready for this. But see the bottom line is they were.

Fox is not going to be the way it is for long. There is a massive ‐shakeup coming, and it is generational. It is generational and political. It is like anything else, nothing ever is constantly the same, there is change everywhere. But it has been amazingly easy to sit from a distance and watch this, it’s amazing how easy it appears, at least to me, that this massive and rapid transformation is occurring.
Emphasis added.

#9  O'Reilly has never been in danger of being conservative. I view this as nothing more than an opportunity to deny the other side a scalp.

#8  Murdock's kids are idiots. It won't be long before Fox is just another me-too liberal news outlet.

#6  Destroying Fox News or at a minimum forcing it to move to the left sharply (which will eventually do the same thing) is about gutting the political messaging that is the sole source of conservative analysis in the US. That done, and the apparent emergence of generational transference of conservative ideals is curbed . Couple that with renewed importation of massive immigrants primed to socialist entitlements and the doom of the Republic as we descend into another Workers Paradise continues. This is strategic and planned and deadly dangerous to core America.

#5  Saw a photo of the person he "grunted" at.

I believe he was attempting to communicate with her in her native tongue.

#4  George Soros and his organizations Media Matters and MoveOn.org going full bore against another conservative messenger. They will go after Tucker Carlson also. If they can't dig up dirt, they will manufacture it.

#2  Colin Flaherty at The American Thinker:

You Can’t Fire Bill O’Reilly - Fox cannot fire Bill O’Reilly because it is not their platform. That belongs to me. And you. And O’Reilly.
