Fox News is in serious hot water
Millions of Americans watch only Fox News, and don’t get news from any other source, which is a great big problem. It’s a great big problem because Fox is propaganda, not news. It’s brainwashing, not informing, its audiences. Its top opinion-shaper, Tucker Carlson, is a Russia symp[...]

Another example of why Fox is disreputable
Fox doesn’t do news, it does persuasion. Its talk shows, which are pure demagoguery, are by far its most popular fare. And its hosts are close-minded, intellectually dishonest pot-stirrers and hatemongers. They’re also liars. Take Laura Ingraham, for example, one of Fox‘s worst off[...]

Fox host pooh-poohs Pelosi attack

More proof Fox isn’t a news organization
Journalism, like other professions, has standards. Don’t call yourself a new organization if you don’t adhere to them. A new book by New York Times journalists says Fox personality Bret Baier tried to pressure his superiors to rescind Fox News’ decision desk call of Arizona for Bid[...]
Why the Fox reporter shouldn’t have tried to diagnose Biden on the air
Because she made an ass of herself, that’s why. Just a few weeks ago, Fox News medical correspondent Marc Siegel, M.D., wrote this (here): “Americans have come to falsely believe that we can evaluate our leaders based on TV snippets. Some doctors too easily fall into this trap, too, but [...]

Fox vs. News
How Fox “reported” a story (here): “Pennsylvania Democratic Senate nominee John Fetterman hired two convicted murderers to work for his campaign, and his Republican opponent in the state’s November election, Mehmet Oz, claims it shows he is soft on crime. “Dennis and L[...]
