This is what FoxNews does best - fuel viewer’s fear of things & people they don’t understand due to their ignorance. With FoxNew’s fuel they distill viewer ignorance into hatred. Then, they tell their viewers who caused their fear & hate.
But you can't convince a single Fox viewer to turn to other outlets. My favorite Trumper insists they are the most fair because there is a Democrat on The Five. I point out that MSNBC has five hours per weekday hosted by Republicans, while Fox would NEVER give a single hour to a Democrat.
They habitualize emotional responses of resentment, hatred, and intolerance in their viewers. Normal empathetic human responses are conditioned to be seen as weak and pathetic. The simplistic pursuit of what’s perceived to be best for me and mine is encouraged; extreme “othering”.
Trump would be a misty memory if not for the insidious FOX network. They play to some of the weakest minds in the country. Folks who are prone to hucksters, liars and con men. It wouldn’t be so bad if there weren’t so very many of them. They march to the song of their pied piper.
Viral meme required, for each time the orange poppy pants tanks the market, FOX take's the stock ticker of the screen. As long as people watch FOX US is doomed to stupidity.
This propaganda outfit needs to be given a new name: I suggest “787” - as in the billions it was fined.
“Truth Social”, “Fox News” - ridiculous deception in their very naming.
Fox news only exists because people watch and advertisers want to infect their brains. Ignore them and fox news will go away. There are much better sources for news.
Not just fox news. Also the nation wide network of far right propaganda radio stations that have been brainwashing people and driving them insane for about 80 years. https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/otm/divided-dial
Yep, this is where it really gained traction. Sadly my dad as he aged started to fall down this rabbit hole. It is a horrible transition to watch. At the end we couldn't discuss much unless it was about his health. Any other subject her turned into a political debate/issue.
I watched the same transition in my parents and older family friends decades ago.
It was the Faux News/Rush Limbaugh combo that did them in. Thankfully most of them are dead now, along with rush.
This cannot be stressed enough. Fox news MUST be removed from America. We must make it illegal to advertise lies, even if it's not labeled a news channel.
You'd think there would be some way to get rid of it. Maybe some kind of lawsuit by every person in the U.S., since it has been a major, major factor in misleading the people, posing as a News organization when it is really propaganda.
True
They’ve been harvesting a lot of lost souls
Fox News is more productive than the Russian propaganda, or maybe they’re part of it
Sowing division and hate by all their means
You are so correct. I don’t know how this is allowed for so many years. They are responsible for the division in this country just constant lie every day!
Don.t forget 'omissions.'. Case in point, stock tickers, signal gate...from what I've heard. I for one can.t look at that crap without vomiting blood and bile
None should forget the true architects of hate politics ( in my opinion) Newt Gingrich and Jerry Falwell Sr, who teamed up with their megaphone mouthpiece Rush Limbaugh to poison the minds of the "heartland"
Reagan set the stage by appointing those he knew would end the Fairness doctrine, and now ?
We need to force them to drop the "news" label. It's not. They've admitted as much. So we need to drop "news" name and give it an APT LABEL. Fake news, entertainment, Mind Melting Drivel
Totally agree. I have some very nice conservative coworkers that come in saying some of the most bizarre and ridiculous things. It’s always fox ” news ”
This is like blaming the knife rather than blaming the stabber. Fox is a mechanism by which to manipulate the news. This isn’t a Fox plan. They are simply the actors.
Murdoch is the old fool pressing them to lie to the people , why has he not been kicked out of the country , Reagan gave him citizenship we can take it away for criminal intent to overthrow the government
American conservatism is the biggest fraud in the UnUnited States. Conservatives who call themselves "Good Christians" are nothing more than brainwashed Idol Worshipers highly prone to demagoguery and propaganda. Perfect targets for buffoons like Musk, Trump, and his puppet master, Vladimir Putin.
Just watched an interview from Meidas Touch with Laura Ingraham’s brother, Curtis, where he shares their father’s history as an abusive alcoholic who loved Hitler. He talks about how Laura is a master at spinning the truth and knows she’s lying.
it plays for the public at airports, countless offices, medical centers, etc, it substitutes for real news, it takes top spot with media providers who include it as a news source, and its content is over 90 percent opinion

Their business plan is worthy of Judas, himself.
Not news.
Not facts.
Not truth.
Fiction created to attract the most viewer for advertising. That’s it.
Fox News is a propaganda machine not a news organization.
I think his heirs will act differently.

Faux News was created by Nixon to do exactly what it's doing. They are not puppets, they are contributors.
