Both tended to show a more conservative viewpoint without hiding the liberal\/socialist viewpoint. In 2016, both the Drudge Report and Fox News tended to be on the side of then candidate Donald Trump. After Trump won his magnificent victory over the forces of Darkness, led by the evil and inept Felonia von Pantsuit, they continued showing generally positive stories.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Donald-Trump.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-20619\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Donald-Trump-300x214.jpg?resize=300%2C214\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"214\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Donald-Trump.jpg?resize=300%2C214&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Donald-Trump.jpg?resize=768%2C548&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Donald-Trump.jpg?resize=1024%2C731&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Donald-Trump.jpg?resize=500%2C357&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Donald-Trump.jpg?w=1180&amp;ssl=1 1180w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Then about 2 years ago, people noticed a change in the Drudge Report. He went from being rather Pro-Trump to a hard core never Trumper. Many others also noticed this. Suddenly, Drudge\u2019s page view plummeted. About a year ago, people started noticing odd changes with Fox News. Most of the opinion people continued their support of President Trump, but the News side suddenly went anti-Trump. The end finally came on Election Night when Fox News called races that were flat out wrong, and has refused to refute it. Now, Fox\u2019s ratings have cratered.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter \" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.pinimg.com\/originals\/88\/d0\/b9\/88d0b90baddac5033355c443c924ba04.jpg?resize=419%2C427&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"419\" height=\"427\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It started when Fox canceled Justice with Judge Jeanine Pirro November 7<sup>th<\/sup>.

Another Fox personality, Tucker Carlson, had a 20 minute opening monologue on the election, the apparent fraud, the move suppress any information that shows that the Biden vote was fraudulent and the threats being made to anyone who supports President Trump.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Tucker: We heard you.

It seemed to be doing everything it could to panic people instead of providing unbiased information. (As unbiased as they could of course) Now their blatant burying anything that smacks of the possibility that President Trump was robbed has started driving their viewers away.
