Fox Tried to Ambush Trump and FAILED

[JCMach1]

Can anyone else ever remember a news agency that tried to ambush a major party front runner before?

[Tommy_Carcetti]

1. Did they fail? I don't know. Wait for the poll numbers.

Who knows with that fucking joke of a party what the hell they are thinking.

[840high]

18. Look at the polls on the net- they failed.

2. Newt Gingrich.

They did the same thing to him in 2012, not as obviously as they did it to Trump tonight thought. They knocked Trump out with the first question.

[joshcryer]

13. That entire field was chosen by the media:

Every couple of weeks they'd pump up one candidate then tear them down, like clockwork.

17. Yeah, the funny thing is that the only one who even had a chance in the general election was

Huntsman.

That is why the GOP primary is such a freak show - they have to placate their stupid, bigoted and proudly ignorant base to the point that the one who wins CANNOT win the general election.

3. WTF? You mean ambushed him with his own words? nt

[southerncrone]

4. He's beating them at their own game.

Their bias is so transparent. Softball questions to favored ones.

[bobGandolf]

5. Talk about being obvious...

that was hysterical. Must not have kissed Rupert's ass enough.

[JCMach1]

6. This is going to be the story... Fox went after Trump and Trump will get huge mileage

out of this the next news cycle...

[Kath1]

7. I hate Trump, FOX News and the Republican Party.

But I really think they tried to screw him, big time.

[JCMach1]

8. exactly... Something we haven't seen before... a literal attempt to put a frontrunner

in front of a firing squad...

[PATRICK]

9. Correct me

but if the frontrunner is not a clear kingmaker favorite this always happens just in a less obvious way. What we have here is a failure to be subtle.

[JCMach1]

14. not in a debate format FROM the 'NEWS AGENCY'

They did the handraising question and then setup everyone with the question to go after Trump. To their credit, most of the candidates didn't follow FAUX's lead.

22. I even think the Luntz focus group was filled with paid ringers and operatives. nt

[TheBlackAdder]

10. In the coming weeks, Trump will shove FOX News up Murdoch's ass, sideways! nt

[840high]

19. lol - u are right.

[snooper2]

11. Rubiho looked pretty good, Jeb looked like a fool, across the populace

We had fun

[TheBlackAdder]

12. I looked for an instant poll, came across Freepers complaining about FOX's setup of Trump. nt

[JCMach1]

15. Exactly, this is the news for the next cycle...

[PatrickforO]

16. Trump is more machine than man...twisted and evil...

[Duppers]

20. The m$m did a number on Dr. Howard Dean

Just for his enthusiastic yell. They took him down.

They're turds with Faux being the slime-est ones.

[tblue37]

21. They all did to Dean. nt

[ericson00]

23. Fox isn't a news agency

its a television tabloid

[Rex]

24. Their attempt to make Trump look weak, actually made Foxnews look weak and scared of Rump.

As usual, Foxnews gets it wrong and helps the person they wanted to get rid of most. TYPICAL.
