Best Answer

Rush Limbaugh has been credited with running the Republican party from Fox News, because he wields so much power with the far-right voting public that the Republicans have been afraid to stand up to him or risk being the target of his vitriol.

The viewing public has an unfortunate tendency to believe Limbaugh's twisted rants, although his views are only protected under the First Amendment as long as he acknowledges he's providing entertainment and not claiming to speak the truth. Limbaugh admits this when challenged.

Why is Fox News critiquing GOP candidates?

Most of the time, Fox News does not critique GOP candidates, since the network is identified with the Republican party and promotes Republican views. But there are two kinds of people on Fox News-- opinion commentators (most of whom tend to lean pro-Republican, and praise Republican ideas); and news anchors, who try to be objective and keep opinion out of their reporting. Thus, Shep Smith or Bret Baier or even Chris Wallace would at times critique a Republican candidate who is in the news, since reporting the news (even about Republicans) is part of their job, and they take it seriously.

Is fox 5 news Tony Perkins Democrat or Republican?

If you are asking about Tony Perkins, the co-anchor of the news at Fox 5 in Washington DC, he has not publicly expressed which party he supports. Unlike the Fox News network, which is identifably Republican, the local Fox affiliates in each city are free to hire whomever they wish, and their reporters are from all political viewpoints. Mr. Perkins is a graduate of American University and previously reported on weather. He is not to be confused with another Tony Perkins, a conservative Republican who is with the Family Research Council.

According to the news watchdog website "News Hounds," on a 2007 episode with conservative commentator Laura Ingraham as a guest Shepard was quoted as saying: "But we're conservative and on the Republican side" referring to the two of them. Some consider this as evidence of Shepard Smith being a Republican.

Why is Fox News not interested in electing a person who is capable of running the country it seems Fox is only interested in keeping the primary season continuing?

This question was asked early in 2012, during the Republican primary season, but it's worth revisiting since 2014 is a mid-term election year. First, it is well-known that Fox News is the media arm of the Republican party. As such, the Fox News mission is to promote the Republican message, and give Republican candidates and their ideas plenty of exposure. (It should be noted that this does not generally refer to Fox's news anchors, like Shep Smith or Bret Baier, who tend to be more neutral, though still conservative; it is the station's talk show commentators who are more identifiably partisan and openly pro-Republican.) But partisan or not, Fox News wants to get good ratings (as do competitors like MSNBC or CNN). To keep ratings high, these networks need to keep putting on an interesting and compelling show for the audience. In the case of Fox News, they do not choose or elect any candidates-- the Republican party and the voters do that. But Fox's role is to give the primary candidates a chance to be seen and heard, and if one breaks out of the pack, that candidate will get more exposure. Therefore, the debate process is actually good for ratings, and there is no incentive for Fox to shorten it. In the end, of course Fox executives and commentators want the best Republican to win. But debates and controversies draw in viewers; so do not expect Fox to advocate for shortening the process unless the audience becomes bored and wants to see some changes.
