alk show host glenn beck told Newsmax that Fox News has gone “full-on woke” by offering matching
charitable donations by its employees to organiza- tions including the Satan- ic Temple, Planned Par- enthood, and the Trevor Project, among others. Blaze Media, founded
by Beck, reported in July that three Fox insiders shared details of the net- work’s charitable giving program that has promoted radical leftist and anti-Christian groups, while deny- ing matching donations to groups like Samaritan’s Purse. “This is matching money for

the Satanic Temple, it’s matching money for Planned Parenthood and
the Southern Poverty Law Center,” Beck told Eric Bolling The Balance on Newsmax TV. “There is no excuse for this.” The Blaze reported the Satanic
Temple is an “atheistic leftist orga- nization that has distributed satanic literature to children”; publicly per- formed “unbaptisms”; and sought to ensure that women can legally have their unborn children killed by way of their “religious abortion ritual” — among other blas- phemies. Beck said the people
running Fox News are “not friends of our Constitution and our God.” Bolling noted the found-
ing chairman of Fox News, Roger Ailes, who died in
2017, had used the network to pro- mote “God, country, and family, with God first.” Beck said traditional Fox viewers
are turning off the network in droves. “I hear a lot of people saying, ‘I
don’t watch Fox anymore,’” Beck said.

eth ailes, the widow of Fox founder Roger Ailes,
told Newsmax that what the country is seeing from the net- work is “industrialized devil worship.” Ailes said she couldn’t
believe it when she first learned what Fox News was doing. “I talked to my son, Zach,
about this when I first heard, and he said, ‘Mom, I could just hear Dad saying, “Come on, guys. What are we doing here? This is completely nuts, stupid. Let’s find the evil- doer who thought this thing up and fire him.’” Calling the network’s actions “a betrayal of the Fox News core audience” that her husband “had sought to serve for so long,” Ailes said it was also “an exam- ple of how Rupert Murdoch and his family have decided that they will give us all these rea- sons why this is OK. They will seek to have a triumph of rea- son over instinct.” As Christians, she explained,

ewsmax’s surge in cable tv ratings continued this summer, as nielsen reported it registered large weekday ratings boosts year over year, and Fox
News continued to see significant declines. The July ratings book found Newsmax registered an impressive 88% jump in
prime time, among all viewers, year over year. Nielsen also reported that Newsmax witnessed a 62% jump in total day and 56% jump in daytime ratings Monday through Friday. Fox News saw declines in July:
down 26% in prime time, 21% in total day, and 14% in daytime. “It’s clear millions of Amer-
icans have made the switch to Newsmax, and they like what they see,” Newsmax CEO Chris- topher Ruddy said.

“we have an obligation to call them out. Christianity is under attack. And what we’re seeing from Fox is industrialized devil worship. “This is a sad revelation that
we’ve been made aware of,” she continued. “But actually, I think people who were loyal to Fox have plenty of other options now, and I think that the way [Fox] treated Roger, Tucker [Carlson] . . . they will suffer the consequences.” Fox News did not respond
to Newsmax’s request for com- ment.
