CNN reports: When representatives from all the major TV networks visited the White House’s South Lawn on Monday, part of what’s known as a “walkthrough” to prepare for President Trump’s Thursday night speech there, there was a surprise: A mystery anchor platform. The platform hadn’t been on any of the diagrams given to the networks for the prime time address …

“Lou Dobbs was the sort of shadow chief of staff of the Trump administration. The president would call us and he would say — and pardon my language — he would say, ‘Why the hell didn’t you watch Lou Dobbs last night? You need to listen to Lou. What Lou says is what I want to do.’ “So if Lou …

Mediaite reports: Fox & Friends hosts Ainsley Earhardt and Brian Kilmeade teed up a montage of fawning media praise for former Vice President Joe Biden’s DNC speech, after which Earhardt conceded “It was a good speech” and described the elements she thought were effective. On Friday morning’s edition of the Fox News morning show, the general tenor was to cast …

“You may find this somewhat ironic, the contretemps between the postal service and the Trump administration and somehow the deep state launching agents of the U.S. Postal service to arrest Mr. Bannon. “Now, we checked. If you’re surprised to find out the postal service has its own police force, there are 65 separate U.S. federal police departments and agencies and …

Fox News reports: The media treats Democrats as “delicate pieces of china,” while Republicans are largely portrayed as the “bull in a china shop,” former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin argued Wednesday. In an interview on “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” Palin said she was both “nauseated and just laughing,” from remarks delivered at the Democratic Convention, reflecting a culture that is “just …

“Michelle Obama could teach a masters class in this mode of communication. Last night she delivered a taped address from her $11 million estate on Martha’s Vineyard. Michelle Obama, it’s fair to say, has done pretty well for herself. “But what she wanted you to know last night was that she is still a victim, she and everyone who looks …

“The identities of the voters who cast them are harder to verify. Mail-in voting makes voter fraud easier. That’s why we haven’t had a lot of it throughout American history and that’s why Democrats are for it, and we have seen fraud. ‘There is no mail-in voter fraud’ — that’s a lie. “That tells you a lot about how Democrats …

“By the way, voter fraud is just one part of why mail-in voting is so problematic. Think about this. With widespread mail-in voting, the United States Postal Service, they will be the ones responsible for the outcome of the election. “Now, with all due respect to my mailman, I’ve loved my mailman ever since I was a kid, but are …

“Let’s be real clear, the Democrats are looking for something to distract, and this is their latest version of it. It was Russia, you know, it was COVID, now their latest thing is it’s the Post Office. “The president’s made it very clear that he is fine with absentee balloting and people mailing in their votes, but not just sending …

“Remember when you respected that guy? Remember when he seemed like a legitimate public health expert? We do. He was on this show, we treated him like a physician. “Now it’s clear Fauci is just another oily politician on an ego trip. Just like the rest of them. “In case you haven’t been to a supermarket recently, Fauci is featured …

Deadline reports: Tucker Carlson’s guest, Democratic political consultant Richard Goodstein, sought to help the Fox News host. “This is something that will serve you and your fellow Fox News hosts,” said Goodstein, as Carlson looked on with knitted brow. “So I’m disrespecting her by mispronouncing her intentionally? So it begins. You’re not allowed to criticize Ka-MAL-a Harris, or KAM-a-la.” The …

“We’re all worried about sending our kids back to school. What is that going to look like for our country, and for our elderly grandparents and things like that? 97,000 kids have tested positive. “We all — that was such a shock to me, because I had heard kids really don’t get it, if they do they’re all going to …

“What she decides to do – and let me set the table here for a second – this Letitia James is a Trump-hating, NRA-hating individual, who made both a central theme of her campaign when she ran for attorney general in liberal New York State, if I need to add that myself. “So she is coming through with her promise …

The Poynter Report reports: CNN’s Brian Stelter points out that Fox News’ viewership dropped significantly when the network aired John Lewis’ funeral last week. Nearly 1.9 million were tuned into Fox in the 9 a.m. Eastern hour, but that number dropped once the funeral began. Fox News had 825,000 viewers in the 11 a.m. hour and only 540,000 in the …

“Joe Biden is afraid of him. He’ll use a pandemic — I think it’s hysterical when he and his wife come out together and they’re wearing their masks. They’ve been housed together since the pandemic started and they’re wearing masks together when they come out. “What is the point of the mask? The point of the mask is to basically …

“Barack Obama showed up at congressman John Lewis’ funeral today and Obama claims he was there to eulogize his friend and that’s not true and that’s not what he did. Instead Obama gave a divisive and deeply dishonest campaign speech in church. “Barack Obama, one of the sleaziest and most dishonest figures in American politics, used George Floyd’s death in …

“If we have mail-in balloting the way it’s scheduled now, there is absolutely no way you will get an election result on election night, or even in the first few days. That means confusion and endless challenges. “That is a mess. What do you think? Delay the election? You can’t start counting mail-in ballots until the day of the election. …

“If Democrats want to erase a politically inconvenient news story fewer than 100 days before an election, they can do that — and they did do it. Big tech censored science. They pulled the video of doctors in lab coats talking about coronavirus research and they hid that video from the public. “That’s exactly what the Chinese government so often …

“Remember, when they go after the founders and Mount Rushmore, they are really going after you. If Biden wins in November, the Democrats and their rioter allies will turn their sights on you. You will become the target for criminals, for radicals, and the cancel culture. “Many of you will be investigated, demonized, and even impoverished by a government indebted …
