Reacting to the growing distance between Donald Trump and Fox News as Rupert Murdoch’s media empire is increasingly distancing itself from the former president, a panel on MSNBC’s “The Katie Phang Show,” discussed the impact of not having Fox News on his side and how it will hurt Trump’s 2024 presidential campaign should he run.

On Friday night, the New York Times reported that Trump has been missing in action on Fox for 113 days, with the report stating, “The skepticism toward the former president extends to the highest levels of the company, according to two people with knowledge of the thinking of Mr. Murdoch, the chairman, and his son Lachlan, the chief executive.

It also reflects concerns that Republicans in Washington, like Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the minority leader, have expressed to the Murdochs about the potential harm Mr. Trump could cause to the party’s chances in upcoming elections, especially its odds of taking control of the Senate.”

According to host Phang, the schism — if it continues — will hurt Trump’s need for publicity in the 2024 GOP presidential nominee race.

“Rolling Stone is reporting that Trump is obsessing over the fact that Fox News’ coverage of him versus his potential rivals for the GOP nomination in 2024 is top of mind.” Phang began. “He is very concerned that he is losing the so-called Fox News primary.”
