Donald Trump is on a tear this morning.

Just days after hosting Rupert Murdoch for dinner at the White House, Trump is attacking Fox News.

What’s wrong? He doesn’t want them to interview candidates he doesn’t support.

“They have totally lost their way!” he yelps.

He must have really thought he could control Murdoch from that meeting. There’s some contentiousness between Trump and Murdoch already concerning the former suing the latter’s Wall Street Journal. But in the Murdoch universe, Fox News is Trump’s bread and butter.

He must also be very nervous that Fox News is interviewing Osborn, an Independent running for the Senate in Nebraska and one of his outspoken critics. Osborn is a Navy vet who could beat incumbent Pete Ricketts. That would be pretty embarrassing for Trump.
