    Wow. Maybe we are reaching critical mass for others to realize the folly of having elected, defended, and subverted careers for this abomination-in-chief.

    the crazy part is the president watching those fox hosts and using them as his advisors.
    It would be like me being the GM of the Rockets and doing trade proposals and hiring based on GARM posts.
    Though some very unstable geniuses said we would leap forward with a certain papa pringles as a head coach.

    Well... even though he was a happy and willing contributor to that degeneration for years, I am glad he drew a line in the sand and stood tall against the machine when FoxNews crossed it.

    "Wow" was my reaction, too. What a totally damning statement from, "one of their own." Incredibly damning and absolutely on target. I hope Peters is the first of many fleeing Fox News, which has turned into a propaganda arm of the trump organization and an apologist for Vladimir Putin's assault on our democracy. Kudos to Ralph Peters. He already served his country honorably. He has served his country honorably again by speaking out against an American news organization busy being complicit with the subversive acts against our democracy and our institutions by trump, his supporters, and the Russian government.

    It is way past time for some of you here to wake up.

    Fox news is terrible because they don't bash Trump 24/7. I love how libtards are triggered by Fox news

    This comment makes no sense at all (no surprise). This has nothing to do with this thread, which is about a Fox News contributor that has now quit for beliefs that you may or may not believe in. It, quite honestly, has zero to do with liberals, or as you say, "libtards." I love how you feel the need to throw in one liners in threads that almost cannot be debated (these mythical things are called "facts," which might be a foreign concept to some here and in politics). It's almost as if you just might be in denial. No one here is surprised, and I apologize to those that use the ignore function for quoting, but I couldn't help myself.

    I know the president is excellent with diversion, but your attempts are humorous and entertaining.

    It has everything to do with liberals. Everyone in this thread except me is a liberal. They are literally upset that Fox News doesn't attack Trump 24/7 like CNN. And to be honest, liberals have been whining about Fox News way before Trump. They can't stand that out of 100s of left leaning shows and network on tv one of is not. IT burns them inside that a conservative news exists on TV.

    Colonel Peters is merely stating the obvious.

    Thanks for the reply, but I will respectfully disagree. This focal point of this specific thread is Ralph Peters. He is a staunch Republican, who was a contributor to Fox News for several years. This has nothing to do with CNN, yet you are trying to make it so. I am fully aware that this discussion will lead nowhere, so good luck.

    What's the point of this other than wanting a pat on the back? I always find the public "I quit" letters to be self-serving.

    I would respect him more if he stayed with the network and called them out on their hypocrisy. For example, I respect Shepard Smith for refusing to tow the company/party line.

    This thread is about a conservative man resigning because his views no longer align with Fox News. Clearly you didn’t read the OP and spammed your usual ant-liberal posts

    It's true that FAUX viewers will never hear of this. Just some nodding liberals.

    But if it makes a few Fox employees pause and reflect...

    I don't think I would categorize Ralph Peters as a libtard.

    Another long reply, and not a single sentence that relates to the thread that you’re posting in. Maybe try reading?
