they have avoided this march to the right by getting rid of Murdoch and cronies. We should do the same. Also, they should never be referred to a a news organization. They are registered as infotainment, and that is how they get away with their BS. It should be stated every time the word fox (lower case intentional) is used (no disparagement to actual foxes). fox, the infotainment co. that pretends to be a news organization. Here to spread falsehoods and propaganda to hurt real Americans. Rant over.
