Does anybody else find it disturbing how open Murdoch is about how FOX will support their candidate?

While wailing about media bias?

I don’t think he’ll get the nomination. He only got around 30% of the primary vote in 2016. If that drops even a bit, and there’s not quitter as many candidates running this time around, it’s going to be difficult for him to win. 

He got 100% in 2020.

Regardless, you’ll still be supporting the demented Joe Biden regardless of who the Republican nominee is.

Yeah because a demented old liberal creep is still better than any Republican, dummy.

FOX dumped the Fair and Balanced slogan five years ago. I think it is good Murdoch is open about this, FOX viewers can't claim they are getting the "real truth", they are just being sold a different narrative.

Hopefully other networks will follow suit, and admit their bias to Democrats, like CNN and especially MSNBC.

Legitimate stories on the President’s corrupt son isn’t indicative of bias.

Poll of GOP supporters and right-leaning independents sightly favoured DeSantis for 2024.  Sounds like a DeSantis/Trump grudge match forthcoming.
Are you sure about that?

I have heard of a few state-wide polls showing Deathsantis leading (in Florida, Texas, etc.) but I think overall Stubby McBonespurs is slightly in the lead.

From:   https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/3735989-desantis-gains-ground-on-trump-in-hypothetical-matchup-poll/
About 33 percent of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents would back DeSantis if the 2024 party primary race was held today and 47 percent would support Trump.

Of course, keep in mind that this is still pretty early in the race. I suspect many Desantis supporters have never really been exposed to him and are just supporting him based on reputation... that may change once he starts getting morer exposure.

I think Pence is thinking of running?
That will be a massive non-starter. Who would vote for Racist Bannon?

The MAGAchud consider him to be a traitor because of the one time he showed integrity. And even if he managed to win the primary, Moderate voters/Independents will probably consider him too closely associated with Trump.

Why are they covering this ?  Doesn't that indicate bias ?

Why don't they cover Giuliani's and Trump's kids who took jobs in the administration and actually profited directly from public office ?

Is there an FBI investigation into that?  There is for Hunter Biden.  Regardless, if you want to hear stories of Giuliani, MSNBC covers it 24/7, while completely ignoring Hunter Biden.  Is that bias?

Yeah, pretty much it is. 

Is there really an investigation into Hunter Biden ?  I didn't know that.  I know there's one or two or several dozen into Trump.

of course in the Presidential election year 2020, Republicans had hoped to show wrongdoing by Joe Biden... too bad, so sad!

NYT - Republican Inquiry Finds No Evidence of Wrongdoing by {President Joe} Biden

Quote
But an 87-page report summing up the findings, released jointly on Wednesday by the Senate Homeland Security and Finance Committees, contained no evidence that the elder Mr. Biden improperly manipulated American policy toward Ukraine or committed any other misdeed. In fact, investigators heard witness testimony that rebutted those charges.

but yes, the FBI investigating Hunter Biden improperly publicly conveyed they had sufficient evidence to "lay charges" in regards Hunter Biden's taxes... which, of course, does not mean that prosecutors will or should seek an indictment --- clearly the FBI overstepped its role/domain!

LOL, a reference to a 2 year old report that had no access to the information that the FBI has!  Bravo. 😂
