‘What the hell is happening’: Fox News viewers lose it after network shows more of Obama’s Georgia rally than Trump’s – By Sarah K. Burris (rawstory.com) / Nov 4 2018
Fox News viewers were furious at their network of choice after they said more of President Barack Obama’s rally in Georgia was shown than President Donald Trump’s.
Fox News hasn’t been showing many of the Trump rallies as he’s taken to the states begging his supporters to vote for Republican candidates. It’s unclear if the decision was made by the network as a rating decision since the president generally repeats the same talking points. However, when speaking to the press several weeks ago, Trump said he’s “have to see about” the fact that Fox wasn’t carrying his rallies live. It’s still unknown what that meant or if the president reached out to the network, but they haven’t changed their programming.
Whatever the reasons, Fox’s viewers took to Twitter with their anger, demanding the network nix the Obama coverage and give them more of the man they love.

Idiots at FoxNews? Get lying Obama off! No one wants to see him! Get TRUMP back on!

Why is FoxNews carrying Obama? And not Trump Rally? Obama is not President.

I shut off @FoxNews
They are trying to hurt this President.
I listened to about 7 minutes of the Obama rally today, and about 2 minutes of the Trump rally in Georgia.
You people are going to suffer. Not Trump or his supporters. Mark my words.
Say good bye to your ratings.

Unreal @JonScottFNC Shows five minutes of @realDonaldTrump at his #MaconGA rally and says now we gave equal opportunity to Obama and Trump and are returning to our programming. So I say bye again @FoxNews I am now returning to @RSBNetwork to watch the Trump rally.

Yay, @cspan is covering President @realDonaldTrump's rally live!!! Interesting @FoxNews is trying hard to suppress ALL @realDonaldTrump's rallies, leading up to the midterms! They showed ALL his rallies in 2016!!

Why did @FoxNews air Obama’s rally but won’t put Trumps speech on?
Really activates the wompers!

I'm so disappointed that Fox News didn't cover the Trump rally in Macon. I've tried to find where to watch it but to no avail. It seems that @FoxNews doesn't care for the election results. Very sad.
