They are a very important link in this constitutional crisis that is looming on the horizon. If you are tired of hearing about Comey and "lies" and "Russians", that is the network that you may want to tune to? They are mostly ignoring the issue that the majority of America is very concerned about.
Until FOX News changes their tune, Trump's base will remain intact and will continue to be a threat to our democracy. They have become nothing more than a propaganda arm of the Trump government. Most of their news is of the anti-left and anti-liberal variety.
In order to remove a cancer, it is necessary to know where it originates. This present cancer in our democracy is originating at FOX News and has spread throughout our body politic. We do ourselves no favors if we continue to ignore it.

(10,602 posts)The billionaires are determined to establish a total propaganda network where ALL progressive ideas are eliminated. They want the media to look just like the old Soviet Pravda. Moves by the Sinclair group and Murdoch presage an extreme "reich wing" takeover.
The loos of virtually all progressive talk the last three years is a symptom of this coop. Right now I bet if you do not show loyalty to the Trump agenda in the federal government you will be purged.
You watch Trump and the GOP will pick a radical loyalist for the FBI intent on purging the FBI and putting in place only people loyal to the GOP agenda. That means the end to anything that will challenge Trump.
Fox News is the chosen GOP propaganda machine and Fox producers will dominate the press machinery in the White House.

(111,053 posts)They have always taken odd happenstances and tried to portray them as the norm, in attempts to convince their viewers that if something happened in Podunk, Arkansas, then it must be happening all across the nation. It's all part of a liberal agenda against conservative values, blah, blah, blah...
