Most of the time Fox News builds in plausible deniability; however, this time the notorious Fox News pollster Daron Shaw has gone full bananas on behalf of those who pay him to create polling narratives.
Daron Shaw should be well known to CTH readers {Go Deep}. Shaw has been the Fox News poll manipulator and narrative engineer for over a decade. Knowing the Trump v Biden debate was coming, we knew Fox News would arrange some anti-Trumpism media narrative to capitalize on the predictable corporate theme. However, to see the Fox team make “Threats To Democracy” the #1 concern of voters, is just a talking point too far.
Fox News creating/promoting the “Trump is a Danger to Democracy” narrative via polling, is as predictable as Megyn Kelly and her 2015 “Trump is a sexist” debate narrative. Keep in mind, in order to see the strings on the marionettes you first have to stop pretending the performance is real life. Far too many people are comfortable pretending.
FOX NEWS – […] “The underlying demographic tendencies that have defined the race remain in place,” says Republican pollster Daron Shaw, who conducts Fox News surveys with Democrat Chris Anderson. “Biden has improved slightly with women and seniors, which keeps him afloat despite significant reductions from 2020 in support from younger voters and African Americans.” […] The top two issues to voters are the future of American democracy and the economy. Next, stability and normalcy, followed by immigration and health care. Nearly half say abortion and guns will be extremely important to their vote, while closer to one-third feel that way about standing up to elite interests, climate change, and the Israel-Hamas war.

Funnily enough, President Trump can see exactly what they are doing.

‘Future of Democracy’ has that leftist ring.
Always it’s democracy (or democrat-cy). Never future of the Republic.
The Left media feel they have to support their leader by holding Trump to a higher standard with the Fox network feeling they have to be harder on Trump to show their “impartiality”. Ryan is not the only Left Board member.
Stopped paying attention to polls ages ago. But even conservative media are full of them, especially in election years. At best, they let you know what whoever paid for the poll wants people to think, based on the Pysch 101 theory that people align their thinking to match what other people say.
Every poll published without exception is an attempt to shape public opion along directions the poll-takers want. People need to get over it, stop paying attention to them and lie if ever asked to participate … give them false data.
Its so blatant and obvious, even coming across mention of a poll annoys me, and I never spend time reading about it: “Wow, let’s see … someone I don’t know being funded by people I don’t know says some anonymous other people I don’t know think X about Y”.
Such credibility. Yeah, that’s worth 3 seconds of my time. Riight.
Biden will be on the same drugs they shot him up with for the SOTU. Those drugs must be very powerful and harmful because we never see THAT Biden.
Anyone want to lay wagers in what the media will do during broadcast of debate to make a mockery of President Trump ?
Will it be a fly circling his head and landing in his hair? Snot rolling out of his nose to his lip? brighter than bright orange makeup? sweaty face? shadow lighting ? Fart noises??
Don’t worry about what they will or wont do to Trump.
Keep your eyes on OBiden and really listen to what he says.
My comment was a joke in pointing out how childish the media can manipulate the event.
So sorry you didn’t understand it and tried to change its intent.
Your levity is appreciated. 🙂
Future of Democracy—that’s like the two-tiered justice system that it appears that we are involved in under this administration (amped up from two admins ago) where some are innocent until proven guilty and some must prove their innocence in order to not be guilty as well as fairness in charging, judges and jury pools.
Stability/normalcy—that would be like being able to get gas to drive to work or shop, to have borders where people who enter the country do so legally and have to abide by the rules of THIS COUNTRY, to have a garden without Big Brother micromanaging everything about that little tomato you would like to have, being in a world where you can’t be censored just because you don’t believe everything the government says, and where inflation is higher than any wage increases
Immigration—we are a nation who has always been about immigration but LEGAL immigration, following the rule of law
Health care—to know that emergency use authorized jabs are not mandated, whether by executive fiat or by threat of isolation or loss of job or ability to provide essential goods for your family
Abortion—as the SCOTUS said, this should be left to the states as the Constitution implied but radicals completely ignore and mislead i.e.. SCOTUS never said that abortion was illegal, they simply said it was a state by state decision and some people have their panties in a twist because they cannot mandate access in every town in every state!
i used to be a Fox 24/7 watcher now I watch OAN for my news and get it online – Fox is as good as CNN MSNBS etc
Yes! And it rubs me raw when I hear every hour on the hour when listening to our local Talk Radio station blurt “And you’re listening to Fox News” as if I’m supposed to be impressed by those credentials? Ah Contraire, it reminds me that all the “news” I just heard is just more propaganda.
Where are you getting OAN?
watching Varney on Fox Business. he’s repeating the same thing with this “poll”. biden at 40% approval…..give me a break. Mr. Illegal Alien ruining the country with 10’s of millions of illegal single men crossing our border from all over the world. I done believe it.
neil (SQUISH) cavutto is a riddled with TDS, watching him melt down is funny.
Fox News is part of the Communist cabal… They are controlled opposition
☭ They tried to sabotage Trump during the debate with their Communist “moderator” Chris Wallace.
☭ They fraudulently called AZ early for Traitor Joe.
☭ Melissa Francis and Marie Barf basically told Newt Gingrich to shut up when he brought up George Soros and his corrupt influence on our local elections.
☭ They cut President Trump’s Comments to Dan Bongino About the Rigged Election.
☭ They refused to run ads for Mike Lindell’s Cyber Symposium.
☭ They ignored RINO Kevin McCarthy’s Call with Liz Cheney and his attempt to remove President Trump from Office following the J6 false flag.
☭ And they boycotted coverage of D’Souza’s documentary 2000 Mules which exposed the 2020 coup.
A Bolshevik cabal by the decedents of Marx/Lenin.
Here’s the psychology behind controlled opposition like Fox News…
As long as patriotic Americans see a few people on TV who appear to be Conservative arguing on their behalf, they feel a sense of security… A false one. They become complacent and are less likely to get off the couch and take any action themselves because of their belief that others are fighting on their behalf… “Don’t worry Mr. and Mrs. American Patriot. You don’t have to do anything… We got this… Just continue to watch us on TV and sit back and relax in the comfort of your home and we will take care of it for ya, mmmkay…”
Unfortunately however, when the jackboots come busting down their door, they will be shocked and horrified but by that time it will be too late.
What a joke! This push poll says “Threats to democracy is our biggest concern” while Venezualen thugs are flooding our cities and raping our daughters…and sons, inflation is at 20%, NIH is creating viruses to destroy humans, and we are financing the beginning of WWIII to enrich Lockheed Martin, Raytheon and Boeing.
Russia ,Russia, Russia
FAUX News this morning was running a “national poll” showing The Manchurian Marionette LEADING President TRUMP by 2 points!
And literally in the same breath, they then show DISAPPROVAL percentages for the usurper ranging from 55% and up on all major issues!
The contradiction was never addressed…of course!
The Ill Logic continues, and we are not supposed to notice!
Fox fake polls. One more reason I don’t watch them. Sorry Greg. No I’m not. If you watch Fox, you get what you get.
“Biden has improved slightly with women and seniors…”

Yep, just more gaslighting.
Is it me or is the video private?
Same here!!!
Now I’m dying to know what it said! LOL
Anyone else think Biden chose the ‘right side of the stage’ rather than being able to speak last, so that he could conceal an ear piece?
The video went “private”.
In the night of 2020 election I stayed up and watched the results. That is when I saw the corruption and the steal. Worse I saw MSM and Fox not report it but immediately declare Biden the winner. It was then when I stopped watching all MSM and Fox for anything. My watching includes entertainment. I need the truth in watching and I do not need to support people who are not going to give it to me. There are more of us (the denigrate by calling us MAGA or America First or Deplorables) then them but the lack of funds to them hurt them big.
Rich Baris – The People’s Pundit: “Preserving Democracy” is the number one issue for voters in literally no other poll but the FOX Poll. It’s a little weird.
“The future of democracy…” LOL. I’m so glad I don’t watch Fox anymore.
This FOX News lost me as a viewer in November of 2019, and I haven’t been back since, although I had been a loyal watcher for years and years. The smell of corruption was all over their election coverage, and I actually blame them for stepping in and helping Biden steal that election. So I have little interest in much of anything they have to say about Trump this time around. FOX News might as well be MSNBC as far as I’m concerned.
