Axios: DeSantis' Decision to Make His Announcement on Twitter Is a Sign That Fox News Is Not the Conservative King-Maker Any Longer
Note: This is a Fox thread, not a DeSantis/Trump thread! We took care of the DeSantis/Trump war for the day already.
This is about Fox being demoted from the place you launch a campaign from to the place you later show up at after you've launched. This GOP operative explains why DeSantis went the Twitter route:It's not in DeSantis' interest to do what the media wants -- attack Trump and Trumpism, and Trump supporters. The media wants him to do that precisely because they want him to lose. DeSantis also doesn't want to have to praise the guy who can't stop claiming he cheats on his wife, may be a pedophile, and who also might be a closeted homosexual. So no, DeSantis doesn't want to be part of The Trump Show. Everyone in the media, and Trump himself, wants him to be a bit player on The Trump Show. For obvious reasons, he is not interested in this. But that's only part of it. Axios reckoned that DeSantis choosing to not declare on Fox News is an open declaration that Fox News is Yesterday's News.
Kenneth Monahan
@Foudroyant I can tell you why DeSantis is going to use twitter. I was a GOP Chief of Staff in the House during the 117th Congress. After Youngkin won the VA Governorship different elements of his team spoke to us all to help us learn the lessons of his campaign. His comms people went around giving a talk. They said that they held precisely one press conference at the launch of their campaign. Virtually of the questions were about Trump, nothing about VA, nothing about policy, nothing about contrasting him with his opponent. As a result, they never held another press conference for the entire campaign. They won. If you are a Republican candidate, it makes absolutely no sense to try to communicate with the voters through the traditional media.
Nice. I got that from Megyn Kelly, who talks about it below. In response to Fox's claim that they have to implement Gay Bathrooms to comply with New York State law, yes, that's true, but she points out that New York State law does not require Fox executives to pressure Tucker Carlson to call Dylan Mulvaney a "she" -- which is exactly what the Daily Signal reports Fox did.
Elon Musk has displaced Rupert Murdoch and Fox News as the king of conservative media in recent weeks. Why it matters: Fox News used to be the place where conservatives went to break news. But the right-wing ecosystem has turned on the network, leaving Twitter as the center of media gravity for the Republican Party just as the 2024 election heats up. Consider that it's been exactly one month since Fox fired Tucker Carlson and in that short period of time: * Fox's ratings have sunk in the 8 p.m. hour as viewers flock to rival Newsmax. * Tucker Carlson announced plans to bring a "new version" of his old Fox News show to Twitter, while arguing, " the news you consume is a lie." I Ben Shapiro's conservative media company The Daily Wire told Axios it plans to put its entire slate of podcasts, which are almost all recorded as videos, on Twitter beginning May 30. The biggest blow to Fox is coming Wednesday night, when Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) is expected to announce his 2024 presidential campaign during a Twitter Spaces event with Elon Musk. ... Be smart: In choosing to bypass Fox News for Twitter, DeSantis is sending a signal to conservatives that Fox News is just as much a part of the mainstream media as CNN or any other news network. Between the lines: Conservatives aren't just defecting to Twitter -- they are throwing grenades at Fox News along the way. * On Monday, The Daily Signal -- a conservative publication owned by the Heritage Foundation -- published a report based on a leak from a 2021 Fox News employee handbook that said employees are allowed to use bathrooms aligned with the gender they associate with. * That leak sparked outrage from right-wing voices, including one of The Daily Wire's most popular podcasters, Matt Walsh, who said on Twitter, "Fox News is fully woke on trans ideology." Now that Tucker Carlson's gone, "there's no stopping Fox's march leftward," he added. A FOX News spokesperson said, "FOX News Media is compliant with all Human Rights laws mandated by the cities and states in which we operate, including New York and California." Carlson is preparing to unleash allies to attack Fox News in an effort to bully the network into letting him out of his contract, Axios' Mike Allen reported. Already, some allies, such as Megyn Kelly and Brett Favre, have been publicly railing against Fox News in its legal battle with Carlson. "The old system is collapsing," Carlson told Axios. "You can't claim you've got a democracy if all the information voters receive before a presidential election has been curated by the people already in charge."
EXCLUSIVE: An ax to grind! Tucker Carlson is seen rebuilding his barn-turned-satellite studio after Fox News dismantled his remote set near Maine summer home - as loyalists quit the network to join his new secret venture Exclusive DailyMail.com photos show Tucker Carlson hard at work at his satellite studio in Woodstock, Maine, as he prepares to launch his new media venture following his unexpected departure from Fox The ousted host would have started broadcasting his nightly Fox talk show from the remote set for the summer by now, but instead is rebuilding the studio after it was dismantled by the networkSee what I mean? You can take moveable equipment but if you've done improvements to the house itself, those are now part of the house. You've given up ownership of them. But based on those quotes, they tore up "the infrastructure." The wiring, probably upgraded electrical outlets, etc. Fox deserves every inch of what's coming to them.
'Fox came in last week and got all their sh*t out of there,' construction manager Patrick Feeney told DailyMail.com. 'They took the set and everything, all the equipment, the chairs, the desk, the fake walls' ... Tucker has since given his own crew a new job, to get the studio back up and running. But the removal of the original set meant they had to repair the infrastructure. 'There's no hardware in place at all,' Feeney said. 'There's not even an infrastructure for a TV studio for a long time.'

They ruined the Wall Street Journal when they acquired it.
When I would travel for business, in the Old Days, I would by a WSJ at the airport. It provided HOURS of reading, if you went through it.
I noticed a few years ago, that it now resembled USA Today, more than the old WSJ.
Roger Ailes is rolling in his grave about how the Murdochs have ruined whatever Fox News had going for it.

Fox removing all their "shit" from Tucker's place kinda seals the deal on the termination of the contract, yes?
So Tucker should be receiving millions AND full rights to "compete" against the failing Fox, yes?

I will only partially agree with that, DeSantis wanted to do something outside the box and being that Musk said would be receptive to a voting for a Ron DeSantis type and being that Musk is trying to become a player in creating a better zeiteist, it was a natural fit.

Eh, Superman gets his ass kicked plenty in the comics depending on the villain.
And there's even been stuff like him getting Kryptonian leporsy(old comics).
A good Bizarro/Superman movie could rock and be a pretty funny comedy as well.
They were able to make a good first movie for Wonder Woman where they essentially used the Christopher Reeve Superman formula.
They could do a good Supes movie, but they'd need good writers who actually like the character.

As to the subject at hand here, the way I see it, Fox had their time in the sun in 2016, but were unable to stop the election fraud in 2020. They are just a loud mouth outlet based in New York, that only wants to build their brand. They can't win this media war because the left has an absolute hatred for Fox. I call it Fox Derangement Syndrome. They recently lost a big lawsuit and are under a lot of fire. Not a good look for conservatives, as far as news outlets, and they can't win.
I see Florida-based Newsmax, as the better nominee for conservatives news. They are the up and coming face of conservative news. I think Newsmax can win because they have better conservative credentials and aren't as offensive or as old as Fox is. Newsmax can actually win the ratings against liberal news outlets that support Biden.
In 2024, I'll be supporting Newsmax as my primary choice for conservative news.

Yes and no. It was pretty intoxicating, during the Bushitler years, to have a supposed nooz org that "agreed" with those of us who saw this as being a team thing.
So maybe not always a "kingmaker," but certainly a kingsustainer, a propaganda arm for the neocon Bushitler perpetual war industrial complex.

I asked the same question and it seems there's not really anyone making the case that Fox was determining the latest stars of Conservatism.
Fox news was only established in 1996 so it's hard to make the case it was a driving force, it arrived relatively late and after Reagan.

This is a good time to discuss British Slang.
I know most of you nerds are also bookworms, so you probably know this already, but "cockney" slang is mostly derived/created from simply rhyming words.
For instance: "I've got this bird around my gregory and I can't get rid of her." Bird, of course, is girl, and "gregory" is short for Gregory Peck, which rhymes with neck.
Another example is "moriarty" is slang for party.

Not true. Fox would have most likely won at trial or on appeal but the trial judge ordered the deposition of the Murdochs and Rupert ordered Fox Corp to settle.
Basically, the internal messaging that would be released in discovery between the Fox news personnel and management was most likely to cause immediate implosion of their fan base and disclose that their news division is hard left while the commentators play at being conservatives for a paycheck.
For Rupert himself, a deposition would probably have covered his past News of the World scandal where that Murdoch owned tabloid hacked phone messaging etc. and the editor was blamed for it.
It would have also delved into the political beliefs of the Murdochs to the detriment of their main remaining news assets.

Utter bullshit. Under Musk, Twitter is more like what it was always supposed to be, and was a long time ago: a platform. Nothing more. Twitter doesn't have editors-in-chief, paid commentators, newsrooms, story writers, etc. It is not a news outlet. It is not even a media outlet. It is a platform that people can (sort of) use as they see fit.
The real story here isn't "Twitter is the king of conservative media" because that's nonsense. The real story here is, in fact, the same story as it was in 2016: that actual platforms allow a bypass of the traditional media gatekeepers - include the now-fallen Fox News. Trump himself said it numerous times during the first campaign: that having Facebook is better than having a newspaper. This isn't new and it isn't shocking.
Twitter isn't a media outlet, it's just a place where people can send their message and hope that others receive it. The problem that has them scrambling isn't that Twitter is the "king of conservative media," it's that Twitter is a place where largely unmediated and uncontrolled messaging can occur.

Fox basically was a kingmaker for DeSantis in 2018 because Putnam had the establishment support but DeSantis went all in on appearing on Fox constantly. There are some other lower tier races where that happened as well. Arguably, it gave Trump a platform against rivals in 2016 where it appears Ailes liked Trump but the Murdochs were chummy with the Bushes but Trump was good for ratings.

But Fox would have a fairly split panel on to talk about it. Then they were unapologetically proUS in the war on terror. So they had a reputation of not being liberal like all the other networks. A home for us.
But they left that behind. I think some of that was the women who left Fox for other networks and proved they were just as Left as their new homes. And then they let Megyn Kelly go after Trump in 2016.

Fox did it the same way news is manipulated elsewhere. You choose what to be covered, how it is to be covered, and how to present the interviewee (lighting, background, etc.).
Like on McCain, emphasize the 'service' and being hurt--not the philandering, the misbehavior in service, possible collaboration with the N. Vietnamese, his involvement in a Savings and Loan scandal, and ignoring his wife's drug addiction.
Romney, the emphasis was on the positive as well versus his rivals.

McCain was on "HardBall!" with Chris Matthews for years leading up to the 2008 race, and they were cultivating each other.
And predictably, like most left - wing Democrat snakes, Matthews turned on McCain when he ran against Mr. Thrill up my Leg Obama.
In perfect retrospect, you can see what a chiseling two-face McCain was all along.

What kind of subtle influence might they have, when Greta or Sean or Bill or even Shemp was willing to softball one guy and not the other?

The CWA was always contingent on the US Constitution's definition of navigable waters. In no sense are puddles, transient wet areas, or man made water containment areas such as retention ponds navigable.
EPA, particularly during Dem years has always claimed far beyond what the Constitution allowed in order to regulate farmlands, lands for development, etc. and the Sacketts have been fighting (this is their second Scotus appearance btw) over the EPA's intransigence lawfare as punishment for them winning.
The Sacketts bought land in a subdivision that was retroactively classified after the Sacketts had cleared the land etc. as wetlands. The EPA imposed massive fines for each day that the Sacketts did not revert their land back to before development making it in effect worthless to build upon. The EPA also tried to forestall court review by claiming the decision on wetlands was not final for the Sacketts.

Yorkshire dialect is widely considered incomprehensible by Americans (and possibly some Yorkshire dwellers). I think the humans in Watership Down are depicted as Yorkshire people. "Old woild rabbit; look!"
Yorkshire sometimes leaves out the definite article before a noun ("Pass me cup, there's a love"), and sometimes drops all but the "t" from "the" when it is there ("I brought t' car"). So I gather from watching BBC shows like Last Tango in Halifax w/ Derek Jacobi.

There is a concept of leasehold improvements--basically a tenant--Fox, cannot remove or destroy fixtures that Fox installed. You see this, for example in home sales--if I put a new dishwasher in and upgrade the wiring to a plug in versus direct wiring. Upon sale of the house, unless specified in the lease contract, I cannot remove the dishwasher and in particular revert the wiring by removing the plugin. Fireplaces, chandeliers, and so on often provoke legal fights over the seller illegally removing improvements and similar to renters doing the same.

The Sackett's have extraordinary perseverance - they fought this in Federal Court for 19 years!!! For an agency, that's easy, for ordinary people - I don't know how they managed it.

He later became pro-Trump and anti-NeverTrump, and he wrote a post telling us why he did.
But think of the alt-histories there - imagine AOSHQ became pro-Hillary and Trump wins. Or pro-Hillary and Hillary wins. Or proTrump and Hillary wins.

This is Yoooooge.
After reading the link, it isn't clear to me that the decision involves anything more than a quick test of what constitutes a waterway, in this case, surface water that connects to a navigable waterway.
I was hoping for more, perhaps along the lines of SCOTUS saying to the EPA, STFU and STFD, this isn't your prerogative.
Posted by: Archimedes at May 25, 2023 04:10 PM
The epa declared that any puddle of water could be considered "waters of the US" and ruled they had the ultimate authority to decide what qualified as a waterway in the US.
SCOTUS smacked them down and said, nah bro, you have to follow the law as it is actually written, you don't get to just make $hit up.

Justices Burger, Powell, Kennedy, and O'Conner as well as Dred Justice Roberts consistently fuck up the law by adding in pointless judge made tests and extrajudicial notions like 25 yr limit on affirmative action (Grutter and Gratz) that ignore the plain words of the Constitution. Their role as they see it was to be a ratchet that saved all the Progressive gains. All of those justices are unprincipled hacks that do real damage to the rule of law because making it incomprehensible leaves it to the busy beavers in the administrative state and their congressional enablers to do their damage.

I can actually see it happening because most people don't sit and watch contractors at work and Tucker was probably somewhere else at the time with a property caretaker doing the gruntwork.
Not knowing what the contract was or the damage done, I can well see Fox and its contractor doing damage on removal of Fox owned equipment.
The usual is to just only take the mobile easily removed stuff because the labor cost to extract it costs too much versus any salvage value. Bad divorces or estate property sales gone wrong often have this sort of crap. Knowing how vindictive the Murdochs are, I can see them doing it.
