WATTERS: And then they sabotaged the teleprompter. I mean, this is an insurrection. And what we need to do is either leave the UN or we need to bomb it. It is in New York though right?

GUTFELD: Yeah, it is.

WATTERS: Could be some fallout there. Alright, maybe gas it?

DANA PERINO (CO-HOST): Let’s not do that.

WATTERS: Don’t gas it. Okay, but we need to destroy it. Maybe can we demolish the building? Have everybody leave and then we will demolish the building.

    I’m pretty sure Faux was running in the red for years. The people backing Confederate Pravda view having Faux as an investment that will pay them dividends even if Faux itself were to be in the red. So I don’t think they are really prone to boycotts. I think it’s much the same for hate radio.

    It’s too bad that deep-pocketed billionaires don’t do similar things to prop up something similar for progressives. I’ve been told my entire life by conservatives, moderates, and most especially the corporate news outlets themselves, that we are inundated by “liberal media”, but I still have yet to see evidence of such.

      Idk I think it’s become pretty clear when something hurts their pockets it’s the only way to force changes.

      If they had to give an individual the axe in order to avoid a profit loss, I’m pretty sure they would do it in a heartbeat. Loyalty isn’t really a priority for them, and it’s not like Jesse Watters is America’s sweetheart. He is easily replaceable.
