Faux News Dumping Rubio Support
Ailes was already concerned about Rubio’s lackluster performance in GOP primaries and caucuses, winning only one contest among the 15 that have been held. But the more proximate cause for the flip was an embarrassing New York Times article revealing that Rubio and Ailes had a secret dinner meeting in 2013 during which the Florida senator successfully lobbied the Fox News chief to throw his support behind the “Gang of 8” comprehensive immigration-reform bill. “Roger hates seeing his name in print,” a longtime Ailes associate told me. “He was appalled the dinner was reported,” the source said.
“Fair and Balanced” strikes again I guess as political cronyism serves as the end product of Murdoch’s media ventures. Rubio’s hand holding appears to be over. Watch for the inevitable Faux News Flip to Trump as realization continues he will be the nominee and boot licking to intensify. What a hack, immoral media organization.
