    Fox is just realizing they don’t really need to hide it anymore so I’m sure the Murdoch’s are saying good riddance tonight. They know their base viewer has had enough conditioning to despise democracy and has warmed to embracing Russia’s structure of government and the echoing in messaging with their state run TV will help each other.

    So no… because they don’t care because their viewers don’t care. The MAGA brand is fundamentally principled in anti democratic right wing authoritarianism. It is what it is.

    I dont keep up with Fox or the other biased new sources.

    What I do know is Fox made these personalities. They hit their prime and like the Rockets, the other networks overpay them before they slip off into mediocracy.

    See Chris Wallace has no persona that’s why I like him. He is the most unbiased person that fox had.

    I wouldn't know. I don't watch that channel. Any network that has Trump or his offspring as regular guests and constantly spreads outright lies and propaganda to make money is off my watch list.

    Its boring anyway. All they talk about it being butthurt about the election and Hunter biden.

    I wonder how people are going to react to a campaign of butthurt from orange. Sure is a good look!! Keep on talking!!

    Fox, CNN, MSNBC are all awful and are ESPNs of news (promoting hot takes and opinions over the actual news).
    ABC, NBC, and CBS news are in general better sources of news on TV.

    AP and Reuters are my trusted news sources.

    Where CNN and MSNBC go off the rails is their formula for 4 topics in 4 blocks. You don’t need 15 minutes of programming to both report on and then talk about a Matt Geatz white supremacist tweet or on fox having a whole segment devoted to whether Ilhan Omar is a secret terrorist.

    Rather they should go back to Walter Cronkite type reporting and go more around the horn on topics and add in global news stories which really helps add more of a BBC level of professionalism/seriousness.

    Having so much time on one topic also leads to whataboutism. When CNN is reporting on something as insane as Trump having a letter of intent directly with the Kremlin to build Trump tower Moscow, they don’t need to also give Rick Santorum 3 minutes to whataboutism with Hillary’s server.

    "News" as sport and entertainment. 65+ seems most addictive. I guess when you are retired, you got to find something to replace boredom.

    I think it is important to watch Fox sometimes. Not to get news, but to understand what’s being fed, the tone, the rhetoric. It’s a little dressing, but one way to understand.

    No. It would just make me mad. I don't need that feeling. I've seen and heard enough of their BS to last me a lifetime.

    You'll hear more about "cognitive dissonance" with Fox News viewers as more studies like these either confirm or deny the correlation.

    Many Cons felt betrayed when Fox called AZ (and nailed it) because the steal was so clever that Dem agents, through use of cutting edge Silicon Valley AI and human trafficked children, could shift sampling and demographics in real time, therefore Fox was exposed as part of the MSM Cabal.

    So Cons effectively Canceled them with their eyeballs and went to Newsmax and OANN.

    Race to the Bottom for the bottom feeders.

    They're slowly becoming their own beast or a dumpster fire that no one can contain.

    I don't understand why so many Democrats spend so much time watching Fox

    I mainly enjoyed wallace. I dont know why he would want to join the liberal sexual deviants at CNN.

    Toomer
    Cuomo
    Cuomo producer....
    • John Griffin, 44, who was arrested and charged with enticing minors to engage in unlawful sexual activity, bragged about being ‘shoulder to shoulder’ with Chris Cuomo
    • The two worked together on CNN’s ‘New Day' until Cuomo was given his own prime time show
    • Cuomo, 51, who was spotted by DailyMail.com for the first time since he was fired from CNN
    • He has been accused of sexual impropriety with a CNN staffer as well as not coming clean about the full extent of his role in fighting allegations of sexual misconduct against his brother Andrew
    • From April to July of 2020, Griffin allegedly used online messaging applications to communicate with people purporting to be the parents of minor daughters
    • Griffin, who was a producer with CNN, is alleged to have sought to persuade parents to allow him to 'train their daughters to be sexually submissive'
    • On each count, Griffin faces a mandatory minimum sentence of 10 years in jail

    sounds like Independent Fundamentalist Baptist values right there. Wouldn't call that liberal.
