It's not being broadcast in Spanish; so I'm guessing it's directed to the more educated, top tier of population. It definitely reaches the few fox-trolls that have ventured outside the iron curtain of the USA, but it's playing to the audience at a tremendous financial loss, as there are NO commercials...it's stead fox-BS pumping-time.

There are enough people tuning in to this twisted reality to influence thinking around the globe. I'm not saying it's the major news source, just like it isn't even here in the US, but it's a voice that "looks authentic", and it weighs in the debate of what is reality.

Same legs, cleavage and sensationalism, 24/7. It works all around the world.
