This is just ugly for Fox News

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

It’s always fun when they turn on their own, isn’t it? I am, of course, referring to the GOP. And this week, one Republican in particular. That Republican is Steve Bannon. Bannon (insurrectionist, Republican, hopefully heading for prison) is quite angry at Fox non-news.

Why? Because Fox isn’t Putin-loving enough for Mr. Bannon, and he was not shy about saying so. “Fox, which is the home of stupid TV or TV for stupid people — and if you watch it, hey, sorry. It’s just all day long ridiculous.”

Wow. Has Steve Bannon seen the light? Will he admit what a malicious shithead he is and perhaps confess he’s had an epiphany and has now decided to become a Democrat? No — not quite. You see, Bannon is furious because Fox isn’t Right-Wing ENOUGH. He wants all of Fox to be more like Tucker Carlson and Jesse Watters. Heaven help us all.

Calling Watters a great guy who is “on the side of the angels,” Bannon ripped into Fox. I wonder — does the moron know that many of his listeners also likely watch Fox? Does he care?

Bannon also repeatedly praised Carlson, calling him and Watters the “intellectual center”, causing this writer to become engulfed in a fit of laughter, which has not yet totally ended. Tucker and the word intellectual should never ever be spoken in the same sentence. I wonder how Fox feels about being labeled the network for stupid people. This happens to be accurate, but Bannon’s podcast is ALSO for stupid people — and the stupidest is Bannon himself.
