US President Donald Trump recently expressed dismay at Fox News, which has long been his favorite of all US channels. "Obviously, Fox is no longer what it used to be." Trump has begun to lean more towards a lesser channel, OANN.
As the presidential election approaches next year, Trump has publicly alarmed the meetings of the conservative-minded Fox News with a number of Democratic candidates looking to compete in the next election.
"It's hard to believe that Fox News is wasting time with Pete Bottiggig, the young mayor of South Bend, Indiana," Trump tweeted, ranking fifth in the polls for the Democratic presidential primaries.
"Fox is moving more and more to the losing side by covering the Democrats," Bush said.
Polls
Fox News polls on the 2020 presidential election have also bothered Trump. In his Twitter account at the end of July, he wrote that the polls are always being treated badly, with the Republican president's approval rating dropping to 43% in mid-August. Present.
Fox News polls predict Trump will lose against the Democratic presidential nominee.
The US president appears to be shifting his attention to another smaller, more right-wing channel than Fox News, One America News Network (ONA).
The channel began in 2013, when it was founded by a US technology tycoon, Robert Hering, who sought to offer a conservative channel on the map of major media organizations.

Multiple tributes
The channel has won over Trump, who repeated praise for it last week in a tweet, in which he also cited CNN, which is a major nuisance for him.
"Look at the fake CNN news," Trump tweeted. "In the end, it would be better than watching Shepard Smith with the weakest track record on Fox News. In fact, I moved as quickly as possible to ONN." .
Since March, US President Taghreed has republished material posted on the AIN website and has expressed admiration for it on more than a dozen occasions. At the top of the account of the channel's founder Robert Herring on Twitter, saying it is "the president's favorite channel", and when "Fox News" cut a broadcast of a rally for Trump last week, Herring tweeted: "We never interrupt the broadcast."
Press Conferences
In his first press conference after taking office in January 2017, Trump gave way to a number of questions to the channel at the expense of prominent media outlets, which was repeated dozens of times in the daily press conferences of Trump spokespersons during his first 100 days in office.
ONN is headquartered in San Diego, California, and if the channel identifies itself as a “pure news channel, without opinion,” its inclination towards Trump is evident, according to several current channel employees. And the former for the Washington Post in 2017.
