President Trump ripped into Fox News and MSNBC in a blunt Truth Social barrage on Oct. 5 and 6, 2025, calling out what he rightly described as “fake spin” and “fake bad” polls that undercut Republican momentum. He made it plain that the networks that once called themselves conservative allies are now happily promoting Democrat narratives and ignoring the real sentiments of everyday Americans. This is not mere gripe; it is an urgent warning that the media has drifted into establishment gatekeeping that hurts our side.
Trump singled out specific examples, complaining that Fox gave Democrat Sen. Mark Kelly an unchallenged platform while refusing to air internal polls that show strong Republican support. He accused Fox of profiting on our attention and then turning those ratings into coverage that helps the left, a betrayal of the viewers who made the network. Conservatives watching this should not be surprised — it’s the pattern of a network trying to play both sides while cashing in.
The attacks on MSNBC were no less pointed, as Trump mocked the network’s rebranding and the fawning coverage of Democratic talking points that ignore working Americans’ real needs. As the panel on The Right Squad observed Monday, these outlets have lost touch with voters’ self-interests and priorities, preferring woke narratives over bread-and-butter issues. When networks refuse to speak for the forgotten middle class, they stop being news organizations and start acting like political operatives.
The Right Squad’s discussion was a breath of fresh air because it refused to accept the media’s spin as inevitable. Panelists pushed back hard, insisting Republicans must stop treating so-called conservative outlets as gospel and instead demand accountability. That kind of backbone is exactly what our movement needs if we’re going to defend voters from biased coverage and left-wing messaging.
Make no mistake: conservatives built the audiences that made cable news profitable, and there is nothing noble about being taken for granted. Fox’s pivot toward “political correctness” and MSNBC’s open partisanship are both symptoms of a broader media rot that rewards insider narratives over patriotism. It’s time for the right to stop begging for airtime and start choosing platforms that actually represent our values.
The answer isn’t to whine; it’s to organize, amplify truthful voices, and vote with our remotes and our wallets. Support outlets that refuse to bury real stories, flood advertisers with feedback, and demand programming that focuses on jobs, safety, and liberty. Conservatives have the numbers and the passion — we need to use them where they matter most.
Patriots shouldn’t accept biased broadcasts as the final word on America’s future. If the press will not serve the people, the people must find their own channels and hold the media class to account. Our country thrives when honest reporting and common-sense values lead the conversation, and that fight starts now.
