Excellent point. However, I think even Fox may be quietly looking forward -- TomGlansAski 11/05/2020 1:01PM

It’s much better for Fox when there is someone they can criticize in the WH -- KCHoo 11/05/2020 1:04PM

Yup. So when NBC/ABC/CNN call it there will be pressure to follow suit ** -- Beerman 11/05/2020 1:12PM
