Opinion Piece. Interesting read imo.
In case folks missed it, during the lead up to Iowa's caucus, FOX News had two messages for the American people: First, the network doesn't especially like Iowa and the second message was that it desperately wants Hillary Clinton to win the Democratic nomination. Rightly or wrongly, FOX News believes that Hillary Clinton is the Republican Party's only hope of holding onto the White House.
As for why FOX News has suddenly taken to disparaging Iowa and its caucus process, that's pretty simple: Roger Ailes, president of FOX News network, has bet all the money on Giuliani winning the GOP nomination. Why Ailes would want that to happen is also easy to understand: Giuliani would continue to follow the Bush administration's neocon-inspired insanity-driven foreign policy. And the people of Iowa would never, nothing to do with the state's caucus system, elect a thrice-divorced-onetime-married-to-his-cousin candidate like Rudy Giuliani. Hence, FOX News HATES Iowa ... and used the state's caucus process as the excuse to drag it through the mud.
