Fox News Publishes Opinion Piece in Support of Ending Electoral College
Another step left for the formerly-conservative news outlet.
Normally, talk of abolishing the Electoral College is reserved for leftists – which is likely why Fox News published an opinion piece Wednesday calling for just that.
“In high school you were probably taught that the Electoral College is about federalism and keeping the presidency independent from Congress,” the piece said. “While there are some elements of truth to that analysis, the Electoral College morphed quickly into a means of protecting the interests of Southern elite slaveholders by the turn of the 19th century.”
That is the typical leftist talking point: the Electoral College is a symbol of racism that must be replaced in progressive America – or something. In reality, the Electoral College ensures that states with relatively small populations – every state other than New York and California – have a say in electing the president. Leftists always want to change the rules when they lose elections, instead of trying to win under the existing rules.

Leaving the Electoral College debate up to the “scholars,” the news here is that a formerly-conservative cable network is committing political suicide. Fox has steadily been doing that for the past few years, but has recently accelerated its timeline.
In just one week, the organization hired elitist RINO Paul Ryan to sit on its board, along with leftist Telemundo CEO Rolando Hernandez. Telemundo is owned by NBC. This was days after hiring far leftist and former head of the Democratic National Committee Donna Brazile as a commentator. All of that happened after the network suspended Judge Jeanine Pirro, an ally to President Donald J. Trump, for non-controversial comments about radical Islam and Sharia Law.
But for Tucker Carlson, the network’s highest-rated anchor, Fox has turned into CNN-lite, and shows no signs of slowing down.

Liberal Media Freaks Out as Tom Cotton Questions Coronavirus Origins
Mainstream media seems more concerned with Cotton’s questions than China’s censorship.
Mainstream media entities are claiming Republican Senator Tom Cotton is trafficking in “conspiracy theories” for questioning the source of the coronavirus’ origins.
Cotton has questioned the official narrative stating that the deadly coronavirus outbreak originated in a wet food market in Wuhan, China. He’s suggested that it’s possible the disease originated in a Chinese government “superlab” a few miles away that conducts research in human infectious diseases.
Cotton has pointed out that the Chinese government is consistently declining offers of scientific and medical aid to combat the lethal epidemic, raising suspicions as to their transparency.
Such a suggestion is enough to label Cotton a “conspiracy theorist” in the eyes of outlets such as Slate and the New York Times. A headline from the Times called Cotton’s question a “fringe theory,” even though Cotton references epidemiologists who believe the virus didn’t originally enter human transmission at the food market. The Washington Post also ran a story Monday claiming that Cotton is trafficking in conspiracy theories.
It’s remarkable that nominally respectable media entities such as the New York Times are quick to dismiss entirely plausible theories of the coronavirus’s origins. If anything, an official narrative on the virus’s origins from the authoritarian communist government of China should be treated with inherent skepticism, especially considering that China is widely suspected of covering up the gravity of the situation and even arresting reporters who seek to document the epidemic and the government’s response.
Certainly it’s possible that the disease spread into humans from the consumption of animals such as bats, a prevailing theory for the virus’s origins. But the general public has no reason to entirely discount any plausible theory for the origins of the virus.
