Conservatives are overwhelmingly inclined to choose to watch Fox. At the same time, they’re also disinclined to watch anything else. Fox churns out falsehoods that conservatives readily accept because conservatives maintain their beliefs against challenges by limiting their experiences and surrounding themselves with sources of information that will tell them they are right. Fox takes advantage of this mindset to program stories that feed into it.
Fox keeps constantly in their minds the idea that the rest of the media are “biased” against them, and conservatives duly respond by saying other media aren’t worth watching—it’s just a pack of lies.

THAT my friend is horsefeathers. My own family member is employed by Fox National News and our family watches all three major cable news networks. And by the way, that family member votes Democrat.

This makes me think you don't watch Fox at all or very infrequently. They do a good job. Catherine Herridge is my favorite journalist of all times.

Let's make sure we are speaking of conservatives.

Donald Trump is not a conservative, but an alt right extremist.

Fox News is not even close to conservative. They used to be, but Trump now "owns" them philosophically and they are the master at conspiracy theories.

Earlier today, a Trump supporter kept pushing (in a nice way) and ias researching and reading up. Found this quote from a fellow who used to work at Breitbart, Ben Shapiro.

He made a great case about conservatives...the real and the extreme alt right.


"Constitutional conservatives can’t stand the alt-right. Conservatives — real conservatives — believe that only a philosophy of limited government, God-given rights and personal responsibility can save the country. And that creed is not bound to race or ethnicity.

Broad swaths of the alt-right, by contrast, believe in a creed-free, race-based nationalism, insisting, among other things, that birth on American soil confers superiority. The alt-right sees limited-government constitutionalism as passé; it holds that only nationalist populism on the basis of shared tribal identity can save the country. It’s a movement shot through with racism and anti-Semitism."

Fox did at one time represent the conservative movement, but,....well evidenced the last few days has been Wall to wall coverage of the Weinstein story, which has NO significance to anyone but extreme alt right bloggers.

Fox now stands with the Trump/extremist group. Fact is, the conspiracy theories that are now aired on there are embarrassing.

This used to be my go to network, but it is pretty much controlled by the ?..well, the Hannity/Trump crew.

Of course she is, given both of your obsessions...with Hillary Clinton.

She has covered Hillary Clinton almost exclusively,

Not much of a spark in you there 'ol sparky...eh?

FOX did NOT invent fake news...fake news has been around as long as people had language and began manipulating others with it.

FOX is the yang to the liberal ying...it's sole purpose is manipulation, to divide the population. There used to be LOTS of "conservatives"...that's why the media was liberal...to counter the conservativeness of the white population. The population is changing and conservative whites weren't the majority any more...they were being edged out by the women/minorities. So, FOX came along to "boost" the conservative presence to "equalize" the two political sides. It has to be kept in balance to keep us adequately divided. Too many on either side causes them problems. That's why presidencies go back and forth...you don't get 24 years straight of democrats.

It's all fixed. The political system is fixed, controlled.

EVERY time you "vote"...if you vote D or R, you're voting for someone who has been vetted by the party and will work for the party, work with the party. That's just the way it is. The D or R party doesn't put a "rogue" on their ticket. They won't run ANYONE if they don't have a corrupt guy to run.

Running as an independent is almost impossible...because the system is fixed. Even legitimate 3rd parties CAN'T get on the ballot in some states because of the rules.

You don't have a choice when you vote. They own BOTH the candidates.

More about Trump vs. Reagan.

Under no conditions would Reagan have engaged in the sort of cultural warfare that has consumed Trump America. If he were around today, Reagan would feel that Trump is practicing bad politics. Even worse, it is lousy showbiz.

Democrats and liberals are definitely less inclined to choose Fox than other sources, but spread their interest across the other outlets when it came to news. But Republicans and conservatives overwhelmingly chose Fox for hard news and even for soft news, and ignore other sources.

I have been watching FOX for many many years, and the changes there are startling.

Not one commentary show, and most are that goes 15 minutes without blasrpting what they refer to as leftists. I never have heard, or certainly not much of blasting Fox simply because they are on the right.

Their choice of coverage has dramatically changed. This week, almost exclusively, they headline the Weinberg story with a picture of he and a Clinton. That is fair...see it in all networks, but on Fox, it is headlined, followed by sub stories on it.

Maybe he has changed, but Shep Smith was the only news show I have found on Fox. They are very open about pursuit of any conspiracy theory.

They are no longer conservative. They are radical extreme alt right

You are correct in that Democrats and liberals are less inclined to choose Fox, but wrong in thinking that moderates and conservatives don't watch all news. You keep choosing biased to the left sources. Use Reuters or Vox. They are more credible. You are being an example of a biased news watcher. Watch Fox some and see. It won't make you into a Republican but you can see that you are prejudging something that you know little about first hand.

Herridge on Clinton. Do you find this incorrect?
