POTUS and Hannity could b!tch all they wanted, but the Bethlehem event brought in nearly 2.6M viewers, despite its definitely-not-primetime slot.

In a clip about the town hall, Colbert appears to say "F*cks News."

Elizabeth Warren rejects FoxNews debate offer.
Via Twitter:
“Fox News is a hate-for-profit racket that gives a megaphone to racists and conspiracists—it’s designed to turn us against each other, risking life and death consequences, to provide cover for the corruption that’s rotting our government and hollowing out our middle class.”
“Hate-for-profit works only if there’s profit, so Fox News balances a mix of bigotry, racism, and outright lies with enough legit journalism to make the claim to advertisers that it’s a reputable news outlet. It’s all about dragging in ad money—big ad money.”
“But Fox News is struggling as more and more advertisers pull out of their hate-filled space. A Democratic town hall gives the Fox News sales team a way to tell potential sponsors it's safe to buy ads on Fox—no harm to their brand or reputation (spoiler: It’s not).”
“Here’s one place we can fight back: I won’t ask millions of Democratic primary voters to tune into an outlet that profits from racism and hate in order to see our candidates—especially when Fox will make even more money adding our valuable audience to their ratings numbers.”
I wish I believed she stood a chance, because Warren is one of my top three Democratic candidates.

Points to her for coming in-state to visit Opioid Ground Zero – the small town of Kermit – last week. Politically, the coalfields have turned so red, they’re almost black.
For background, here is part one of the 2017 Pulitzer Prize-winning series from the “Charleston Gazette-Mail.” (Click through for part two.)

Forgive that the link to the video clip comes from a random partisan Twitter feed, but on one of these lame FoxNews Town Halls, Chris Wallace (whom many defend as at least trying to conduct himself as a journalist) abruptly cut off Kirsten Gillibrand, who was asked about late term and partial birth abortion. As part of her answer, Gillibrand pointed to FoxNews being guilty of spreading the myth of infanticide, and Wallace wouldn’t let her finish. Her answer was directly relevant to the question asked, and the moderator wouldn’t let her finish.
I say again, f*ck FoxNews.
