LOL, maybe most republicans watch Fox to get less unslanted news than from " CNN, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, NPR, the Times, The Post " There really is no other option for those that watch the news. Typical, lib complaining about Fox (which is not a trusted source here on FR) instead of identifying what is wrong with the rest.

Look no further than the Hunter laptop story where the Dem media buried the story to understand why.

Hannity is having Sean Penn on tonight as a guest. I rest my case.

*chortle*

Philip Bump has his panties in a twist. Again.

He’s as bad as Charles Blow.

fta... Among Republicans, though, only two were: local television and Fox News.

So, how does only 2 of 10 (20%) of Pubbies getting their political news from local and Fox News equal this so-called damaging role in US media?

Consider the source of this garbage and toss it in the trash.

The Left’s Core Strategy #1: Scream racism at anything you don’t like or which slows your agenda.

The Left’s Core Strategy #2: Passionately attack Republicans for actions you are undertaking.

The Left’s Core Strategy #3: “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. “

The Left’s Core Strategy #4: Repeat.

Fox News has absolutely ZERO influence on my beliefs.

Don’t forget that Fox recently added Bruce aka Kaitlan Jenner as a paid commentator to the network.

CNN, NBC, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, Disney, NYT, WaPo all left wing propaganda outlets where anybody to the right of them is a threat to democracy. MSNBC isn’t much better than Infowars. They leave out the influence of Twitter, FB, YouTube deliberately filtered out to satisfy leftist sensibilities. With all of these, it’s Fox that’s the problem in their twisted heads. No deviation from their world view is permitted.

Hard to believe that these people can say these sorts of things with a straight face. Reminds me of the story about how one media personality back in 1972 said that she did not know one person who voted for Nixon (the year of his landslide victory over McGovern).

I don’t like to use the term malarkey but that’s how best describe the article. Brian Stelter. Give me a break.

Yeah, the Hunter Biden vacuum on CNN.

The Broockman/Kalla research is particularly suspect, just from the gushingly favorable CNN conclusions and the maliciously framed Fox conclusions. It’s all malarky, as Joe would say, because the key premise is self-evident.

People who watch CNN get a different world view than people who watch Fox. who knew? Its almost like this is the first CNN resurrection salvo to restore a moribund cable channel

— CNN, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, NPR, the Times, The Post —

Waaa waaaa, it's six against one. It's unfaaaaair. We want no alternative points of view,

Really it's more like dozens of Goliaths vs four Davids if you include OAN and Newsmax and Breitbart although I'm not even sure Fox counts as one of the good guys at this point.

Hannity is a low IQ wanna be that thinks we can have peace with communists.

Huh. I guess I need to watch Fox more.

The liberal media “appeal to authority” argument has gotten old.

No one listens to their fake, politicized, “science” any more.

I’d try and keep low IQ’ers away from an audience as much as possible, but Fox and others take the opposite position. He’s in front of a microphone 4 hours a day. I can’t take 4 minutes.
