Ahem. But for town halls, within that universe, it was bigger than any town hall there ever has been on CNN or PMSNBC.\u00a0 But not only is the Fox News audience irritated and ticked off and threatening to abandon the network, the left is ticked off!\u00a0 They are livid at Bernie for doing it!<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re so mad at Bernie, they\u2019re saying that this is a classic example of how Bernie Sanders is selfish and thinks only of himself and is not a team player, and his appearance is undermining their efforts to destroy Fox.\u00a0 They\u2019re openly admitting this.\u00a0 Bernie Sanders showing up &#8212; and now, since Bernie had a record town hall, guess who is raising his little hand there and wants to be next? (impression) &#8220;Hi, I\u2019m Mayor Pete! I\u2019m Mayor Pete!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Can I do one? C-c-can I come on?\u00a0 I &#8212; I &#8212; I mean, I did really well in the CNN talk, really good. Can I come on?&#8221;\u00a0 And they\u2019re thinking about having Mayor Pete come on to do it. They are.\u00a0 But, folks, I need to explain this.\u00a0 There\u2019s so much more involved in this.\u00a0 I especially want those of you who are mad at Fox to hear a couple of things. I\u2019m not gonna try to talk you out of being mad, but I think there\u2019s always more to these things than appear on the surface.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I said one of the reasons the left is ticked off at Bernie is because he\u2019s selfish. He\u2019s selfish. He\u2019s not a team player. He went on Fox News to benefit himself!<\/p>\n<p>How can a guy be accused of not being a team player when he allowed an election to be rigged against him and didn\u2019t make a beef about it? I mean, I think Bernie Sanders in one sense is the ultimate team player. He knows full well what happened in 2016. Hillary Clinton and the DNC, Debbie &#8220;Blabbermouth&#8221; Schultz, rigged the primaries for her. And he knows it. And he took it. And he didn\u2019t make a big deal of it.<\/p>\n<p>He doesn\u2019t say it. He doesn\u2019t accuse them of it. He just marches on to come back another day. If that\u2019s not being a team player, I don\u2019t know what is. Unless, of course, they\u2019ve had a figurative gun pointed to his head, which given we\u2019re talking about the Clintons, nothing is outside the realm of possibility.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-306454\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/APP-041719-BERNIE-Fox-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/APP-041719-BERNIE-Fox-4.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/APP-041719-BERNIE-Fox-4-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>But they did. They succeeded in rigging the Democrat primary. They tried to rig the presidential election, and they failed. So they then had to cover up what they had done, and that\u2019s the Mueller investigation, in a nutshell.<\/p>\n<p>Okay. To the audio sound bites because I am gonna get into the Fox News thing here in just a minute, \u2019cause I\u2019m overrun with emails from people and comments from Fox News viewers who are livid. And not just at Crazy Bernie\u2019s town hall. They\u2019re livid that Donna Brazile\u2019s been hired and all these other Democrat commentators. They\u2019ve all got their theories as to why. And the theories run the gamut.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019ve heard about the Murdoch sons and they\u2019ve heard the comments that one of the Murdoch sons is very liberal, his wife is very liberal, and he\u2019s tired of being embarrassed when he\u2019s out with his friends, with his friends ripping into him about how conservative Fox is so he\u2019s gonna change it.<\/p>\n<p>Or the pressure that Fox is sick and tired of being considered right-wing because of their prime time programming, and so they\u2019re doing everything they can to tell the world that they\u2019re not a bunch of depraved right-wingers by having all these Democrats. I mean, the theories are all over the place.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Now the Fox News story. And it\u2019s kind of fascinating to go beyond just the surface. As I say, a lot of Fox News fans are livid because they even gave an hour to Crazy Bernie. It\u2019s the largest audience in cable news, and a bunch of conservatives, &#8220;Why are we turning that audience over to the Democrats? They can\u2019t build audiences like this on their own networks. Why is Fox doing this? It\u2019s not right.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And so people evolve a bunch of theories. &#8220;Fox is tired of being criticized and they want to be respected by the rest of the media, and they don\u2019t like being called right-wing and so forth. They\u2019re just going overboard. They\u2019re destroying what they built. I\u2019m never watching again.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Then on the left there is so much anger at Bernie Sanders, you can\u2019t believe it, folks. You don\u2019t see it because you\u2019re too busy focused on your anger at Fox. But the left, the radical left, the socialist left, the mainstream left is livid at Bernie for daring to go on Fox. And you know why? Because in their view, Bernie is validating Fox, and he is humanizing Fox, and he is making Fox appear to be mainstream by willingly appearing there. And this is undercutting their efforts to destroy Fox.<\/p>\n<p>What are the efforts that they are employing to destroy Fox? It\u2019s advertiser boycotts. I can\u2019t tell you how filled with rage they are because they are afraid that Bernie Sanders appearing on Fox is going to create new advertisers for Fox who approve of this, which will be financially beneficial to Fox and will undercut their efforts to boycott advertisers of Tucker, Hannity, Ingraham, Shannon Bream and wherever else around the network.<\/p>\n<p>And so they are livid at Bernie because they think Bernie is single-handedly destroying their effort to destroy Fox by mainstreaming it, by giving it credibility, and they are deathly afraid that Bernie Sanders &#8212; and Pete Buttigieg is next, that these liberal Democrats doing town halls is going to further mainstream Fox, which is going to make it more amenable to additional advertisers, which will then further undercut the left\u2019s boycott effort.<\/p>\n<p>As angry as you may be at Fox, trust me, they are livid at Bernie Sanders for this. They are single-handedly running these boycott campaigns. They happen every day. They\u2019re so mainstream media now that they don\u2019t even make the news. But they\u2019re running these advertiser boycott campaigns, and Bernie\u2019s undercutting \u2019em.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-306453\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/APP-041719-BERNIE-Fox-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/APP-041719-BERNIE-Fox-3.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/APP-041719-BERNIE-Fox-3-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>Dan Pfeiffer who was a famous Democrat spokesman, Clintons, Obama, &#8220;Fox News will use these Democrat town halls to attract new advertisers, which will help keep Hannity and Tucker on the air, undoing a lot of grassroots pressure on advertisers.&#8221; The DailyKoS. &#8220;Yeah, this is a great thing for Sanders personally. But he\u2019s undermining everybody\u2019s efforts to destroy Fox\u2019s ability to sell advertising.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And they\u2019re really mad that Sanders set the record. They\u2019re mad that more people watched Sanders on Fox than have ever watched a Democrat town hall on CNN or MSNBC. They can\u2019t believe it! They\u2019re livid! Bernie is a sellout, he\u2019s selfish. And they\u2019re trying to whip up a bunch of anti-Bernie Sanders pressure.<\/p>\n<p>But what they\u2019re really worried about is that every other Democrat is now gonna want in on this. And Mayor Pete (impression), &#8220;Hey, can I come on? I want to come on. My husband and I would love to kiss each other on Fox. Man, that would be great, would be great. We\u2019ll do a town hall.&#8221; And then Eric Swalwell be right behind \u2019em and the rest of the Democrat parade and they\u2019ll go, \u201cI want to kiss my husband on Fox, too, oh-ho-ho! That would be so wonderful!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And they are livid and paranoid that their own Democrats are gonna undercut their effort to destroy Fox\u2019s financial viability. There are a couple other aspects of this thing as well. Some of them are saying, to support their contention that Bernie\u2019s being selfish, &#8220;There isn\u2019t anybody watching that\u2019s gonna change their mind and vote for Bernie. Nobody is watching. This is the Fox News audience. They\u2019re not gonna watch a Bernie town hall and decide, \u2018Hey, Bernie\u2019s a good guy, I\u2019m gonna vote for him.\u2019 That isn\u2019t gonna happen.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So they think Bernie\u2019s wasting his time, that all he\u2019s doing is helping mainstream and humanize Fox. It\u2019s one of the reasons why whenever there have been decent profiles of me, the left goes nuts. They can\u2019t stand that I would be humanized. Because their efforts have been for 30 years to dehumanize me, to make me some gigantic bogeyman or what have you. The same thing that\u2019s happening here with Fox.<\/p>\n<p>So for all of you Fox fans livid here at what\u2019s happening, you think they\u2019re selling out, they may be, I don\u2019t know. But at the same time, there are benefits accruing to them financially for this. And it\u2019s turning a bunch of left-wing donors and activists against Crazy Bernie at the same time. So just a few additional things to put in the hopper for you to consider.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Hey, breaking news. Amy Klobuchar has just announced that she\u2019s doing a town hall on Fox News on May the 8th. (chuckling) You know, there\u2019s another reason they\u2019re scared. Bret Baier is straight down the middle. They have told everybody that Fox News is this dangerous, conservative, right-wing bunch of you maniacs, but there wasn\u2019t any ideology or maniacal behavior in the one hour with Crazy Bernie. They\u2019re really&#8230; It\u2019s just like they\u2019re afraid of all of these enemies they\u2019ve created &#8212; me, talk radio, the blogosphere, Fox News. They\u2019re afraid of anybody seeing that they\u2019ve been lying about who we are, and that\u2019s another reason they don\u2019t want these Democrats going on.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: From the New York Times: \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2019\/04\/16\/us\/politics\/bernie-sanders-democratic-party.html?fbclid=IwAR29_Z6bmcISVdRanQZrS1wSgkjNUXlPCfh3zXafKoRwMyuAQ0Ct-3PHByQ\">&#8216;Stop Sanders\u2019 Democrats Are Agonizing Over His Momentum.<\/a>\u201d This actually is a hilarious article. The New York Times says the Democrats are scared to death that Bernie\u2019s gonna win the nomination and that they can\u2019t think of how to stop him.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-304865\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/APP-040219-Bernie-Sanders-bw.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/APP-040219-Bernie-Sanders-bw.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/APP-040219-Bernie-Sanders-bw-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>Now, part of trying to stop him is to rip him a new one for appearing on Fox News, but now Mayor Pete wants to go on Fox to kiss his husband there in a town hall, and Amy Klobuchar wants to go. And I will guarantee you this is gonna create a train of other Democrats that want to parade through Fox News town hall.<\/p>\n<p>By the way, Tom Perez, this really radical leftist head of the Democrat National Committee is now doubling down. They said that Fox News will not be allowed to televise any Democrat primary debate ever, no way, no how. But, folks, the real reason for this &#8212; and there are many &#8212; but the real reason is the left has an ongoing campaign to destroy Fox financially.<\/p>\n<p>There is an ongoing advertiser boycott attempt. They are continuing with this, and they think Democrats appearing on Fox is gonna undermine it by legitimizing Fox to the left, by mainstreaming Fox to advertisers. I mean, if the left saboteurs are out there trying to intimidate advertisers, \u201cYou can\u2019t advertise. That\u2019s a racist, bigoted network! This is a network that that that that\u2026\u201d And they make up all this garbage, whatever they say it is, and advertisers just slink away. Some of them who are not properly explained to what is happening here, slink away.<\/p>\n<p>And then after they think they\u2019ve succeeded in driving a bunch of advertisers away, here comes Bernie Sanders, and here come Mayor Pete, and here comes Amy Klobuchar appearing on Fox, which is gonna maybe even bring new advertisers in to the replace the ones the boycott is succeeding in scaring away, which I think is outrageous anyway. I think these advertisers ought to have more guts. But that\u2019s another story.<\/p>\n<p>If you bring in new advertisers to make up for the ones the boycott claims to be getting rid of, then you\u2019ve undermined the primary effort that the radical left has. The radical left cannot stand competition. They do not want any alternative point of view anywhere. They don\u2019t want to win a debate. They don\u2019t think they should have to engage in it in the first place.<\/p>\n<p>So they\u2019re objective is to rid the country of Fox News, to rid the country of talk radio. And they have been trying to do this with advertiser boycotts and intimidation. So as these Democrats appear on Fox, it undercuts that. The advertiser says, &#8220;What do you mean Fox is this? I just watched Bernie Sanders, and they treated him fairly. What are talking about, Looney Toon wacko leftists?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And don\u2019t think Fox doesn\u2019t know this, by the way. I know there are a lot of you who think that Fox is caving ideologically because of pressure from high up in the executive suite or maybe pressure from Shepard Smith, who knows. But believe me there\u2019s a financial component to all this as well.<\/p>\n<p>So here\u2019s this New York Times story: \u201c\u2019Stop Sanders\u2019 Democrats Are Agonizing Over His Momentum.\u201d They are scared he\u2019s gonna win the nomination. They can\u2019t think of how to stop him. Which, to me, is a knee slapper. They had no problem stopping him in 2016. They rigged the election against him.<\/p>\n<p>If you don\u2019t want Crazy Bernie to win then go ahead and play delegate games like you did for Hillary. This isn\u2019t hard. You\u2019ve done it once, Democrats. What\u2019s to stop you from rigging the game against him again?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-300815\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/APP-Liberal-Bashing-rUSSIAN-sOVIET-cOMMUNIST-bERNIE-sANDERS-022219.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/APP-Liberal-Bashing-rUSSIAN-sOVIET-cOMMUNIST-bERNIE-sANDERS-022219.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/APP-Liberal-Bashing-rUSSIAN-sOVIET-cOMMUNIST-bERNIE-sANDERS-022219-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>In fact, folks, I will go so far as to say that thanks to the revelations in the DNC emails that were published by WikiLeaks, we know that not only was the convention rigged against Crazy Bernie and the election, the primaries and the debates were rigged against Crazy Bernie!<\/p>\n<p>Hillary was given questions in advance. Moderators were a little tougher on Crazy Bernie than they ever were on Hillary. And the New York Times story does not mention any of that, of course, which is like writing an article about the sinking of the Titanic without mentioning the iceberg.<\/p>\n<p>Then there\u2019s another story The Daily Wire: \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/46012\/bernie-hank-berrien\">Bernie Sanders Releases Tax Returns, Is Immediately Called Out For Stinginess<\/a>.\u201d Because you know what his charitable donations were? Let\u2019s see.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBernie Sanders, who incessantly preaches about the greediness of the upper class, has an interesting history; in the last ten years, as his income has risen, he has only once (barely) given more than 4% of his income to charity, twice given a little more than 3%, twice given roughly 2.5 %, and five times given less than 2% of his income to charity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Now, there are some people who do not donate to charity simply because they don\u2019t want any &#8212; no. Take it back. There are people that don\u2019t claim their donations. I know people that donate to charity that do not claim the deduction \u2019cause they don\u2019t want anybody to know where they\u2019re donating. And one of the reasons, once you start donating, every other charity eventually finds out about it and finds you and comes knocking on your door with their hand out. So a lot of people want to do it in private.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: I&#039;m not gonna try to talk you out of being mad, but I think there&#039;s always more to these things than appear on the surface.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":58,"featured_media":306453,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[12,1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 -
