John Ellis, proprietor of the excellent News Items, writes about how Sen. Mitch McConnell has seemingly won over Fox News in his fight with Donald Trump.
“Fox hasn’t exactly shut down its criticism of McConnell. Sean Hannity keeps at it, ad nauseum. But the others seem to have put the subject aside. If they return to it, the question is whether they will do so wholeheartedly or because they need to punch the pander card for the sake of the ratings. Pandering seems more likely.”
“Rest assured that everyone at Fox News, and especially the show hosts, read the New York Post editorial, very carefully and more than once. Trump should focus on ‘the big picture’ and ‘leave the tactics’ to Mitch. All concerned, with the exception of Trump, appear to have absorbed the message.”
