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

How do you think CNN’s ratings are compared to 5 years ago? Same shit ** -- CharlestonSC 11/05/2020 1:07PM

Yep. Getting angry and criticizing stuff is easier for people to digest. ** -- KCHoo 11/05/2020 1:09PM

I'm a little surprised they haven't retract AZ projection. Partially due to -- JohnHoo2 11/05/2020 12:57PM

Correct. And Trump would blow a gasket if Fox called ballgame before any -- CT Wahoo 11/05/2020 1:04PM

Joe Biden for the THREEEEE!!!!! "Based upon the projections -- Shenhoo 11/05/2020 1:18PM

I think it’s also just a bad look in general to call the entire election -- CharlestonSC 11/05/2020 1:08PM

They have been ahead of the pack all through election ** -- Hoogle.com 11/05/2020 12:59PM

Think this was result of bad data from AZ officials about % of votes -- WaxHoo 11/05/2020 1:03PM

Not all orgs have called Arizona yet, have they? I believe just Fox and AP? ** -- CharlestonSC 11/05/2020 12:57PM

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

Correct ** -- WaxHoo 11/05/2020 12:59PM

Trump has a plan -- WahooMatt05 11/05/2020 12:50PM

Seems odd to devote so much energy to something that really doesn't -- CyberHoo78 11/05/2020 12:53PM

I still don't get their (and AP's) crazy early call in AZ. ** -- Seattle .Hoo 11/05/2020 12:50PM

They also called VA the moment the poll closed. Seems like VA is as blue as -- JohnHoo2 11/05/2020 1:00PM

I've been looking forward to this for a day now. It's a crazy scenario. ** -- chuck-fu 11/05/2020 12:49PM

I think we were in this case not too long ago -- WahooMatt05 11/05/2020 12:52PM
