And I don't think Fox News "tried to get Warren to do a debate".
That's bullshit.
What they did was offer her, and ANY candidate for President free air time to get out their message...not a "debate".
Which is exactly what a news media company is supposed to do.
In my opinion she is getting bad advice from her handlers. If she really wants to win, she needs to get her message out there. CNN doesn't even have a million viewers anymore according to the ratings.
Meanwhile Fox News is the number one cable network.
Big tactical mistake.
Dismissing the largest audience and basically telling all those potential voters that she isn't interested in them.

You are mistaking the largest audience with best ratings.. Fox news has the highest ratings because it's the only news show that really caters to the far right talking points. It just so happens that people on the right want to site and watch news day in and out all day long..
This is the same reason radio talk shows are almost always right wing because the only people who want to listen to it are usually older white dudes.
Meanwhile non radicalized news can be found on multiple networks, from CBS, ABC, NBC but also the 24hr networks like CNN , MSNBC, Sky, BBC, PBS ect..
Meaning Fox has higher ratings because they are really the only pick for people who want to be spoon fed right wing talking points. Meanwhile the rest of the world watches a host of other news shows.. There is far more people watching these other show, so Warren has a far bigger audience then just people who dedicate their lives to watching Fox news...
Here is the kicker Robbie.. the people want to see Warren in a debate will tune into what ever station her debate is on.. Be that NBC, ABC, Fox , RT, wherever.. However people who watch Fox News will not tune into another station just to see her so they really aren't the audience she is worried about because they wont vote for her anyway..
If they want to see her then they tune in where ever, if they just want to watch Fox news then they wont.. Fox just wants the ratings and Warren is smart enough to understand that and brave enough to say it...
