Fox "news" Cannot Be Trusted

[KeithD]

Meaning that the Republican Party is the "No Reasonable Person" Party(?)

 

[Leather_Lesbian]

In an effort to bolster its obsessive fear-mongering over the teaching of “critical race theory” in schools, Fox News has hosted nearly a dozen “concerned parents” or educators who are actually Republican strategists, right-wing media personalities, or conservative think-tank staffers.

It is worth noting that the spread and resurgence of white supremacy and right-wing populist movements...~snip the Marxist crap~

Yawn, a line of shit and a wall of text.

You always offer the best rebuttals. The eyeroll is particularly devastating.

Stop being a partisan cuck. Fox, CNN, MSNBC, etc. suck donkey balls. They all spin the news to fit the narrative that their viewers want.

They are, even Fox, at any rate more credible than OANN, Newsmax, Breitbart, the Blaze, the Daily Caller, etc., etc., so fucking many etcs.

"Marxist" is yet another thing that does not mean what you think it does.

It means exactly what I think it means. It's you who needs education in the subject, or you'd understand the threat. But since you don't keep whistling past the graveyard.

‘Making America worse’: Joy Reid's mini-biography on Tucker Carlson's many failures

Joy Reid is one of the most poisonous MSNBC personalities on the air. She is a disgrace as a "news" anchor, and as a first generation American. She is an accomplished liar, a racist, a mentally unbalanced propagandist, spouting an alien ideology full of hate for the country she was born in. If it wasn't for Sean Hannity she probably would have been fired.

You're a fucking asshole brain dead dumb ass!

In court filing and under oath, Fox lawyers swore that only mindless fools would believe anything Sean Hannity and Tucker Carlson say.

Fox News Hit With $1,000,000 Fine For Being Degenerates


Fox News has agreed to pay a $1 million fine levied by New York City’s Commission on Human Rights over what the commission describes as “a pattern of violating of the NYC Human Rights Law.” At issue are serious and continuing problems with the company’s workplace environments. As the Daily Beast explains it, Fox has now “effectively admitted to ongoing misconduct that includes sexual harassment, discrimination, and retaliation against victimized employees.” The accompanying fine is the largest amount that the New York City human rights commission has ever imposed.

Alongside the fine, Fox is now required to institute “immediate changes to policies surrounding reporting sexual harassment, retaliation, training, and compliance with the NYC Human Rights Law,” the New York City commission says. The commission has also revealed that they “will monitor the network on a quarterly basis for a period of 2 years to ensure compliance.” Labor lawyer Nancy Erika Smith, who represented former Fox host Gretchen Carlson in a lawsuit revealing serious sexual harassment problems at Fox, characterized the commission’s demands of Fox as “monumental.”

Revelations of sexual harassment have hung over Fox News for years. Roger Ailes, the company founder, left after his perpetration of harassment and assault was revealed.

Possibly because arousing your viewers' emotions wins more in ratings than telling them the truth.

News market shares ebb and flow with election cycles. And despite the whines of Trump supporters, the 2020 election is done.

Former president Donald Trump was impeached for an unprecedented second time for inciting the Jan. 6 insurrection with his election lies, but none of that could have happened without Fox News.

The ex-president started stoking the violence to come hours after polls closed Nov. 3, when he complained that any early leads that evaporated as more votes were counted could only be explained by fraud -- and both Trump and his allies pushed that false narrative on Fox News and later in losing court battles, reported the Washington Post.

"Trump could have come out that night and offered a cautious wait-and-see to the results, but he chose not to," wrote Post columnist Philip Bump. "Two months and three days later, his supporters, animated by that decision, stormed the Capitol and sought to confront legislators or Vice President Mike Pence."

But Fox News shares much of the blame for that violent assault by repeatedly promoting the "Stop the Steal" rally that preceded the Capitol breach, and by inviting guests on to repeatedly push Trump's lies about his election loss and even coordinating with them to push the dishonest claims.
"NPR obtained a memo delineating an appearance by Republican Party chairwoman Ronna McDaniel on Sean Hannity's Fox News show, including how the pair would discuss the fraud claims that McDaniel and the GOP were elevating on Trump's behalf," Bump wrote. "Fox aired anonymous claims about explicit voter fraud, claims that were never substantiated in any credible way. Host Tucker Carlson raised claims about dead people voting — only to have to backtrack when a local news station spoke with several of the 'dead' voters. Host Maria Bartiromo offered extensive airtime for Trump to spread dishonest claims, offering only nods of her head in response."

Trump got impeached and Fox News has been sued by Dominion Voting Systems over the election lies it broadcast.

Is that why Trump has turned against Fox?! Because they sided with him and it went bad?!

Fox News host Tucker Carlson on Thursday shocked observers when he linked the push to get people vaccinated against the novel coronavirus to eugenics.

During a lengthy rant, Carlson said that allowing the government to push Americans to take the vaccine could lead to a mass eugenics program.

"Can HHS force you to take antibiotics for your TB?" he asked rhetorically. "How about Xanax for your anxiety... And while we're at it, why are we letting irresponsible, defective people reproduce? Vagrants, mental patients, even QAnon people, all are allowed to have children. Why don't we sterilize them? Sound crazy? It's happened before on a huge scale."

There are many problems with Carlson's claims.

First, the government is not physically forcing anyone to take the vaccine but is rather working to mount a door-to-door campaign in areas with low vaccination rates to convince Americans to get their shots if they haven't already.

Additionally, the entire point of getting people vaccinated is they can remain alive so they have the opportunity reproduce in the future -- in other words, the exact opposite of forced sterilization.

Carlson's rant set off a wave of condemnation

Fox News paid $4 million to cover up sexual harassment allegations against Kim Guilfoyle: report

Kim Guilfoyle, the Trump campaign finance chair and romantic partner of the president's eldest son, was allegedly terminated from her previous job at Fox News in 2018 after her former assistant accused her of sexual harassment. Moreover, Guilfoyle and her network employer allegedly took significant steps to silence the accuser, according to a new report.
In 2018, the year in which Guilfoyle departed Fox News, her former assistant reportedly alleged in a 42-page draft complaint that the outgoing network host had "subjected her frequently to degrading, abusive and sexually inappropriate behavior."

Fox News reportedly hired the accuser, a woman, out of college in 2015 to work as an assistant for Guilfoyle and Eric Bolling, another former Fox News host who was fired amid allegations of sexual harassment. The New Yorker's Jane Mayer broke the story on Thursday, as told to her by "a dozen well-informed sources familiar with" the complaints.

The draft complaint alleged that Guilfoyle often spoke in inappropriate detail about her sex life and shared photographs of the genitalia of her sexual partners, according to Meyers sources. The document also reportedly alleged that Guilfoyle once demanded a thigh massage, as well as exposed herself and asked her former assistant to critique her naked body.

The draft complaint also alleged that Guilfoyle required her former assistant to spend nights at her apartment, plus share rooms on business trips. The former Fox News host urged her former assistant to have sex with powerful men and once told her to "submit to a Fox employee's demands for sexual favors," the draft complaint reportedly alleged.

Sources told The New Yorker that Guilfoyle had tried to buy the assistant's silence, allegedly offering to pay her if she lied to lawyers involved in investigations of impropriety at the network. Guilfoyle also allegedly inveigled her with a private-plane trip to Rome, a cut of future speaking fees and a chance to report for the network. The assistant reportedly claimed that Guilfoyle had personally mentioned $1 million, and "two well-informed sources" told the New Yorker that Fox News had agreed to pay the woman more than $4 million in order to head off a trial.
