It was always Chris Wallace’s job to protect the DC interests by tamping down any sunlight upon corrupt UniParty politics. That’s the reason why CTH called Wallace the deep swamp ‘gatekeeper‘ for a decade.
Wallace, the top player amid many such players at Fox News, was always a narrative platform provider to distribute media points that supported the institutional administrative state in DC. However, thanks to the rise of pragmatic conservatism, a movement created by Donald Trump and commonly identified as MAGA, in recent years more people have caught on to how this insufferable media game is played.
Chris Wallace was increasingly becoming naked to his audience, and as a direct outcome, increasingly useless for propaganda distribution. Today, the functionally obsolescent gatekeeper announced, effective immediately, he was leaving Fox News. Moments later, CNN announced Chris Wallace was joining them. In essence, Wallace moves from controlled opposition to direct opposition. WATCH:
The CNN welcome announcement is AVAILABLE HERE.
Wallace was not the first departure. The increased public awareness of the manipulative construct that is Fox News (writ large) is the same reason why Steve Hayes and Jonah Goldberg were released. That is also the same motive for Fox hiring Dan Bongino.
Although it is yet to be announced, the Fox News contracts for Sean Hannity and Laura Ingraham also will not be renewed after their current terms expire. With more people finding more places where genuine source material facts are cited with sunlight, the ability for controlled opposition pundits to thrive is demonstrably lessened.
Traditional cable news is modifying itself accordingly with subscription based services.
If you want to avoid uncomfortable truth, if you want to be fed propaganda, if you want to get talking points just to support your skewed and ideologically flawed world view, and if you want to avoid confronting your own preconceptions, the subscriber services from both Fox News and CNN will now provide the direct injection of propaganda and misinformation you need to retain the status quo. This is the new business model for cable news platforms.
An entirely new media infrastructure has assembled outside the influence of corporations. Understanding current events, real news and information based on fact, is no longer dependent on corporations. Independent researchers and information providers are giving the raw material citations directly to audiences on a variety of platforms.
In the bigger picture, these are the consequences from identifying “fake news” publicly, and yes, we can thank Donald J. Trump for that. This is the biggest gift that Donald Trump created outside of his America First political agenda. Donald J. Trump was/is a walking red pill; a “touchstone”: a visible, empirical test or criterion for determining the quality or genuineness of anything political.
Without Trump, the business models of CNN, MSNBC, Fox News and the alphabet broadcasters would never have collapsed as quickly. He alone accomplished that.

Still won’t watch Fox.
Amen!
Fredo Cuomo and Brian Williams and Chris Wallace..
What do these middle-aged white men have in common?
I’m stumped.
They lean so far left they should all walk with a cane!
What they have in common is ‘washing the feet’ of their donors, screwing the people they represent, and hiding from the cancel culture maggots…
I cut the cable years ago, so FOX went buh bye back then. Today its TCT, TGP, and BB, and the SHILL to keep up with the leftist deflection. Seems like there are more articles about DJT and repubs (in a negative way), than bidet and the communists. Love the overnight “presidential politics” here, where my fellow treepers post articles that I would never read about elsewhere, and thats my go to after scanning the local blurb site.
BB has some interesting articles, but they like to swim with the swampies. I like TGP because they touch on subjects that no one else reports on like the J6 prisoner status, and voting audits. But they have also put out articles that arent grounded in truth. I also look at OANN, Daily wire, daily caller, and the epoch times to round out my day.

It seems like CFP has gone downhill lately. Many of their story links are 2-3 days left, and the content isn’t that great.
Yeah and that obnoxious troll/plant Mrs. Sunshine’s daily encouragements to assasinate people isn’t too swift either.
Recommend also ZeroHedge for conservative politics seen thru an economic lens. And of course FL Attorney Jeff Childers’ “Coffee & Covid” daily blast.
Childers is a riot to read! Laughter with the truth is great.

Greg Hunter has some great guests and a weekly wrapup that is on top of it.
Kayleigh McEneny should take his place. She would be awesome and is already under contract with FOX.
I might actually *watch* that show!
Nepotism is the dumbest credibility for journalism.
And when it DOES get you in and you STILL are the antithesis of respect-
Wow. Like a singularity of credential. Getting smaller and smaller and smaller and….
Retreat!
Good riddance. CNN is a good place for him.
Various Swamp gatekeepers getting their talking points from Nanzi Porklosi herself. How many can you identify ?
George Steponsomething, David Whatshisname, Chris Wallace…
I think this not new.. the helpers are not wearing cootie masks…
Newness or oldness has nothing to do with Swamp Gatekeeping.
Lol at “cootie masks.”
I hope “I did that” or at least helped. My home office / Trump command center TV stays on FOX all day and half the night. (Limited cable) but as soon as that insufferable Wall – Ass or Neil Ca-boud-a-butt would come on I turn the TV to the Outdoor Channel with the hope that it would somehow register with the ratings as tuning out. Good radiance Wall-ass and I hope the door hits ya where the good lord split ya…
Actually Chris Wallace has always been with CNN. It’s just that he used Fox as a cover.
I’m sure the brass at CNN will love his little folksy soup recipe cookbook episodes with his wifey.
Brian Williams left MSNBC… what’s he talking about??
“Grown men and women who swore an oath to our constitution, elected by their constituents, possessing the kinds of college degrees I could only dream of, have decided to join the mob and become something they are not, while hoping we somehow forget who they were. They’ve decided to burn it all down with us inside.”
His whole farewell speech here:
https://www.thewrap.com/brian-williams-warns-nation-unrecognizable-in-final-msnbc-sign-off/
WHICH “grown men and women” does Williams refer to? The careerist UniParty legislators? The Squawd? The corrupted letter agencies? Or does Brian mean the Jan Sixth Insurrectionists? Maybe he’s referring to all of them.
.
Odd, that he fails to take credit for his own network’s role in “burning it all down”, considering that PMSNBC is one of the planet’s major sources of propaganda for the UniParty and the elites.
He’s talking about people who don’t agree with him
… and mainstream media’s fictional imaginings of current events
It’s known as the process of “othering”
Which is Step 1 on the road to genocide
Yes. His comrades on the Left know exactly what he’s saying. It’s a declaration of war of sorts, on us. He is stating his loyalty to the deepState and standing his ground against the growing tide of people who are starting to think that maybe Trump is right and he WAS ripped off last year.
Good question. Maybe he’s moving to CNN with Chris Wallace.
Everybody doesn’t swoon for our lies anymore. So sad.
Are the attacks on Lin Wood a barometer the conservative media is using to determine where they stand with citizens? The Rittenhouse accusations have been slapped down with receipts.
It’s all very strange.
Re “The Rittenhouse accusations have been slapped down with receipts.”
Source link, please…
Lin Wood is not sane or at least he’s not acting rationally over the past couple of weeks or so. Maybe he’s just stressed beyond his breaking point at the moment and will stabilize again soon, but whatever’s going on, he’s been unhinged lately.
This conclusion was inescapable after I actually read what Wood has written on Telegram over the past couple of weeks. While his currently unhinged state of mind has nothing to do with his religion, what’s going on that I think muddles things for many people is that Wood makes various wild accusations and then constantly brings up how dedicated a Christian he is as a way of shielding himself from criticism. I get that most people don’t have the time to do a deep-dive on this sort of internal MAGA drama and Wood seems like a devout believer and somebody who has been on the right side of important matters in the past, which causes some people to gravitate towards his side in these sorts of feuds. But just read through his Telegram (or listen a phone call with Patrick Byrne calling Wood and trying to mend fences that Wood inexplicably leaked to the public—the recording of the call is on Rumble).
Also, if you’re not keeping up with recent developments, Wood and a guy named David Clement, who was active in some of the election challenge efforts and used to work as a college law professor, have been publicly attacking Byrne, Michael Flynn and the entire Flynn family based on really sketchy, petty reasons recently, ranging from being upset about Flynn backing a candidate for Georgia Governor they disapproved of to actually suggesting the Flynn family is somehow involved with the occult to Wood complaining bitterly and repeatedly (on that call with Byrne that Wood then leaked) that Flynn didn’t defend him more vigorously against the accusation he ripped off or somehow wronged Kyle Rittenhouse, even though Flynn had publicly shared and suggested people listen to a recording Wood had made & released in which Wood addressed those accusations. On the call, Wood insists to Byrne that Flynn not defending Wood’s honor more vigorously and making his own public statement is some sort of major betrayal that reveals Flynn’s unsavory character; on the call, Byrne tries to point out to Wood that Flynn likely thought sharing the recording of Wood’s own words and telling people to listen to it would be sufficient, but Wood rants repeatedly about how he lost respect for Flynn because of this and Wood insults Flynn’s honor and loyalty in various odd, unhinged-seeming ways, including repeatedly saying that he wouldn’t ever get in a foxhole with Flynn because he thinks Flynn would turn and run away and leave him there.
This is what I mean when I write that Wood seems unhinged… I mean he really seems like he’s snapped or lost it somehow and just isn’t thinking straight. I don’t believe he’s a bad person or that he has bad motives (I tend to be less generous in my thoughts about Clement, but I really don’t know about him either and don’t want to jump to conclusions)… I do think Wood has crossed some ethical lines while apparently beset by paranoia and delusions, but mostly I just think he’s unhinged and, unlike most people who have some sort of mental breakdown, he’s such a persuasive and articulate person that he’s able to convince many people to believe his delusions, which complicates this situation.
I thought Lin Wood came off kooky a long time ago. Big promises.
Sidney Powell comes off far more balanced and rational, and the Deep State is after her with more weapons. We need Ms Powell.
Phew, I totally fall on the opposite side of the fence re: Lin Wood. Lin is smart and cunning & I’m pretty sure he’ll come out on top. As far as Patrick Byrne, I’ve considered him a blow-heart since that White House meeting with DJT, Sidney & a few others. Patrick is enamored with himself and thinks he knows more than everyone, including DJT. I wrote him off back then. Lin Wood published the call after Patrick lied about what Lin said. You may have missed the part where Byrne kept saying that Sidney Powell was a drunk and tried to seduce him while at Lin’s residence. Lin kept saying, I never her saw her take a drink. Patrick was not trying to mend fences….you may not have been following him for very long. You know that snake story DJT tells…Byrne is a snake.
As far as the Flynn family, I can say this…no one fooled me more than General Mattis. I adored him & thought he was the ultimate General. Whoops. So I no longer give any General or any rank unquestionable allegiance. There are questions General Flynn should answer and most of them have to do with $$. Something is off there. Lin Wood is asking the questions and people are getting mad at Lin. I’m very skeptical right now, but I’m sure we don’t know even a little tiny bit what is going on. Heck, I’m still not sure if Pence is a bad guy or a good guy.
Right now I’m standing with Lin Wood. He calls it like he sees it & if proven wrong he’ll back off. He is razor focused on the 2020 election fraud & I believe that’s why they are trying to take him down. As far as the Georgia governor race, that would be Vernon Jones. Another snake that is a Democrat turned Republican and is pretending to be MAGA. He has some corruption in his background that is being ignored by Flynn…why? Others that looked into him quit endorsing him. Trump just endorsed Perdue. Something’s not right there that Flynn keeps backing him. Fishy. Lin isn’t unhinged or paranoid. He says do you own research. I do as much as I can. But I will say this, Lin Wood has had a lot more personal interactions with these people & sees and knows a lot more than we do. The DS wants us to think he’s crazy…why is that?
Nothing to see, just the ci a moving assets around.
Move along.
Good riddance Chrissy. You won’t be missed. Let’s go Brandon!
CNN cannot get good guests due to their inherent bias.
Will be interesting to see if Wallace will attract some who have refused CNN invite.
And what time slot does he get and what format?
What is it about swamprats that keeps them working long past retirement age? Maybe they realize their families don’t want them around?!
They are powerful people, they like that power, and they are greedy. Getting paid millions to be important while reading a teleprompter is a good gig if you can get it. They get to go to all the elite parties, participate in back door meetings that create policy, travel, be consultants, essentially run the world. Oh, and the books, lots of cash to be made money laundering in the publishing world. Conservative media is especially hip on promoting each other’s books. I find it sickening.
Chris Wallace has always been a committed leftist, he will do fine on CNN. Closed minded people like Mr. Wallace and the cult of the woke are spitting mad that there is opposition to their Globalist views.
The Governments oppressive vacc mandates, mask mandates, vaccines for jobs, vacc passports.seem oppressive to some of us but not to the woke
High fuel prices for autos, home heating,cooking etc.are hurting folks, but the woke don’t care. So where are the offshore wind farms, and vast acres of solar panels to replace fossil fuels? So many products are made from fossil fuels so will these products be banned too?
Open border policies, people and drug smuggling that kill Americans,sky high inflation, high crime, fentynel and are some of the policies supported by Pres.Biden and woke leftists like Chris Wallace.
Is Joe Biden promoting a civil war against Americans ?
he thinks this is his sunset tour.
the sun left his latitudes many years ago….the shadow doesn’t even remain…
it’s just darkness …empty cold..withered echo chambering halls of also rans …shells of their former twisted souls.
determined to squeeze out that last drop of banality.
good writing
Rumor….and only rumor….
Anything to Ghislaine Maxwell’s trial….being connected to Crissy Wallace….????
Chris Wallace the Mike DeWine of Ralphie Parker’s
Hope he shoots his eye out.
Rob Schmitt and Greg Kelly at Newsmax have it going on…both are very solid in their work. Hannity went off on the ledge and fell off for his support of the “rank and file”.
I like Laura and Tucker…
Plain and simple, Hannity is a low brained Doofus!
Can’t stomach that buffoon. His level of self-importance is off the charts.
He will never be accepted because, thou shall hate fox. First Greta Susteren tried, then Megyn Kelly, then Shepherd Smith. All failed / failing. The bigger they were on fox ,the bigger they bombed. They have a fox news stain that lefty’s can never forgive. Good luck Chrissy.
FTA:
“….With more people finding more places where genuine source material facts are cited with sunlight…”
IOW: People now realize you WON’T find truth OR ‘genuine source material’ ANYWHERE on TV.
It’s ALL slanted opinion based on slanted interpretations of cherry clicked snippets.
When was the last time ANY TV talking head broadcast a link to actual SOURCE MATERIAL so the viewers could read it and make up their OWN MINDS???
Real America’s Voice the new go-to at my house
Would Tucker be a good anchor spot in Trumps new media? I would think he would have even more freedom.
Hannity maybe too. I know he’s not much help on FOX, but both may have been effectively muzzled allowed to only go so far.
I would he willing to give them a chance on Trumps new platform. But they should be told they have max 2 weeks to open things wide open. A couple weeks to get their sea legs of freedom and then let ‘er rip.
Leave Hannity out. You don’t need anyone smelling up the place.
Yep
Good idea. I like hannity. He has been a Trump supporter since the very beginning.
Lara Logan.
Yes!! This lady is a sack of hell! Love her!
Devin Nunes plus Tucker? Sounds like a winning team to me. Imagine if Tucker knew what Devin knows…
Devin Nunes will be CEO in the new Trump media company, I don’t know whether he’ll have time to co-anchor a show.
I think Lou Dobbs would be a better prediction. Lou is cheaper and more in line with Trump’s worldview. I have big respect for both Dobbs and Tucker.
I like Lou.
Too bad Lou Dobbs wasn’t 20 years younger.
High spot of my day! Good riddance to that pile of trash.
Kind of scary to realize that the cheeto faced rodeo clown foresaw the future of Fox News and beat them to providing subscription based service.
Or did they force him to survive in desperation and then steal his working ideas?
But seriously, who pays for crappy news service anymore? Yet people pay for their brainwashing now? Gives new meaning to the old phrase, ‘a little off the top please’.
Before it vanishes forever down the memory hole..

CNN needs a new operative to replace Chris Cujo.
Lost one Pedophile and got a new one.
This is so funny
Chris Wallace and Shep — both keystone “journalists”, heavy-hitting editorial level opinion gate-keepers leaving FOX NEWS
Amazing.
Wallace is such a shill
Wonder how long Soros’ money will hold out propping up CNN.
Awesome! He deserves to be on a brain dead channel hemorrhaging viewers. That said, I no longer watch FOX, and haven’t since they called it for Biden. I come here for my news.
Now, if we could just get Brett Baier to join him!!!
And Neil Cavutto!
Yes!! What a schmuck!
When Trump media is finally launched it will be a breath of fresh air, but Trump needs to dig deep into the histories of these people.
Vet them better than WH staff.
Exactly.
Good-bye!
Loved that direct opposition.
Good riddance. Don’t let the door knob hit ya where our good Lord split ya.
Love Bannon’s WAR ROOM for the reasons Sundance mentions; excellent sources brought onto the show…SIGNAL NOT NOISE!
Listen daily. Respect Bannon. He calls this what it is…WAR! He doesn’t back down, but rather on the offensive.
Warroom is almost all that I listen to anymore! Bannon and his guests are awesome.
When an allegedly respectable anchor is quitting shortly after signing a lucrative 4yr contract you just know that something is up. And I doubt it is about money. Wallace will not be terminating his contract without a good reason.
Stay tuned. My guess is some sexual impropriety allegations rather than outliving his usefulness.
can he take Juan and Geraldo with him? maybe Jessica nails on a chalkboard too?
not that I have watched Fox since Nov 3 2020… except Tucker,Mark Levin
—and Hannity— on occasion.
The hubristic hosts at Fox have been incessantly mocking the remaining CNN hosts and their dismal ratings ever since their popularity tanked.
While the constant Fox mockery was not likely the major reason why the CNN bagmen offered the “insufferable” Wallace an obscenely high price to flee Fox, it was probably on their minds. They acquired exactly what they wanted as sundance has described.
A globalist hack and a loyal supporter “of the institutional administrative state in DC” who masquerades as a hard hitting journalist. He won’t have to masquerade now.
How many more Fox hosts will fly the coop for a bigger paycheque?
It is revealing that CNN chose these 2 news outlets as references for Wallace;
“Praised as an “equal opportunity inquisitor” by The Boston Globe and “an aggressive journalist,” “sharp edged” and “solid” by The Washington Post, Wallace’s new show will feature interviews with newsmakers across politics, business, sports and culture.”
That saying about left and right sides of the isle are both wings of the same bird. Its the same with the media. From Fox to CNN ..lean left, lean right, we’ve got you covered.
From Faux News to VERY Fake News CNN
Can’t wait to hear PDT comment on this!
I respectfully submit that Bongino is not part of the new Fox news misinformation campaign; he has demonstrated the antithesis of it.
I don’t see her often, but I like Laura Ingraham.
So what happens to Fox News rating when Hannity Interuptus and Laura leave?
OAN thrives? Merge w Trump Media?
Awesome to see these pieces of dung depart to even more evil networks who are attempting to clean up their acts by hiring these has-beens. Little do they know (the CNN’s) they are circling the drain and there is no hope of redemption. Bwahahahahahahahh!
CNN, from dumb to dumber.
Mene, Mene, Tekel
Chris Wallace was so ugly acting after Trump won. Ivanka lived in his neighborhood and brought cookies to apologize for the chaos created. Chris Wallace was terrible. Don’t forget that FOX does not restrict Mark Levin.
May Chris Wallace’s short career at CNN be even more biased and contain more over the top propaganda than ever.
May your career go down spiraling in flames and end with a spectacular explosion when the public completely abandons you as you hit the ground.
I will enjoy the crash and burn. Hah!
It will just end in a SPLAT. No explosions, that would be too epic for him.
Jomama, not just Wallace but CNN writ large.
Wallace is in his 75th year and well past his expiration date
The Corporate media seem to be confused and angry about what they did to themselves. I read today that Chris Wallace is the only rat running TOWARD the sinking ship!
Awesome, yes, he is a rat heading for the “safety” of the sinking ship. It is hilarious. I love it.
Sold his Soul for 30 pieces to CNN…LOL!
