Fox News Channel Sees Highest Viewership Numbers In 2020 Amid Coronavirus Coverage

Fox New Channel’s numbers beat out the competition across the board. Last week’s eyeballs mean that the FNC has been the most-watched cable network across total days among all viewers for 12 weeks in a row. The network has also held the top prize in primetime viewership for 10 weeks in a row.

The real headline? DNC shills who have never held real jobs attack journalism.

There’s that dang gum liberal word: “Professor” again.
Nothing to see here, move on.

Journalist professors don’t like “diversity of viewpoints”.

The prefer “The Narrative”.

Since when do journalists/propagandists qualify as health professionals/experts?

...false statements downplaying the prevalence of COVID-19 and its harms

You mean like that video of Gavin Nuisance's aunt, Nanzi Jezebel Pelosi, nonchalantly walking down the poop-riddled sidewalks of San Francisco's Chinatown urging people to come visit?

Professors hold themselves above the peons. Journalism majors don’t have to take math or science or anything difficult as far as I know-i may be wrong. Who cares what they think.

Don’t take this lightly - Progressives never want to let a crisis go to waste and they are determined to use this one to stamp out all dissenting points of view on the altar of “dangerous misinformation”.

If they keep this crap up we might need to implement some of our own emergency measures.

Yes I seem to remember an incident where Rush Limbaugh was excoriated for commenting on something health-related, or science-related some years back.

It’s stunning that ANYBODY would admit to being a “Journalism Professor” to begin with.

Bless their hearts.

Anyone who injects ‘Fox News’ as the basis of a political position has the knowledge of a Village Idiot.

Those professors and “journalists” are almost certainly 99% liberals/Democrats.

100% are certainly propagandists. Of that we can be certain.

Fox has a problem. If they continue to do what one assumes Paul Ryan was behind, and cut away from Trump, the public will cut away from their TV and Fox’s ratings will fall. Right now they have TV’s #1 hit show. Only an idiot would burn that down for politics.

So they’re going to add “misinformation” to the high crimes and misdemeanors for which they will start Impeachment II!

Who keeps the lists of these pompous, leftist professors to trot them out on demand? The DNC?
