I watch some TV shows on Fox but not their news.

They don't have news, they are not a news channel. They don't employ newscasters. They do have some good shows on Fox, but nothing but lies on Fox News.

I agree. All the lies have caused the division in America. Besides, why would anyone want to spend hours and hours watching any of the "news" channels, its weird.

All news on TV is misinformation and opinion based anyway. No loss here. Try online for the real news.

That is simply basic journalism.

Online news? You mean the “news” that is given by unknown people based in Russia, or a guy in his basement, or other people manufacturing salacious stories just to get clicks which are regulated even less than mainstream cable networks? No thanks. I’ll stick with mainstream (but not Fox which flat out lies) which has resources inside the events, inside the disasters, inside the courts first hand. They may give their opinions, but they are the ones that also giving out facts because you can watch the event live while it’s happening and see for yourself despite what their opinion may be.

Remarkably, the ONLY NETWORK that was sued for almost 1 billion dollars for false reporting, was FOX.

I LIKE TO BROADEN MY HORIZONS and gather as many FACTS as possible, funny how that works!

You'd think a lawsuit settlement of $780,000,000 would change their thinking. The list of lies is so long from FOX it is truly remarkable. Very sad to see people duped by them.

Lottoguy 04-30-2024 08:37 AM

Online? You mean by some person deep in their basebment with their YouTube Channel.

Lottoguy 04-30-2024 08:42 AM

I can remember when FOX ran a story about a certain Illinois Senator who was not paying taxes on her house. This went on for a week. This Senator didn't pay taxes because she was 100% disable from her war injuries in the Gulf War. In that state you pay no real estate taxes on your home if you qualify. Other states also have this written into their laws. Did FOX apologize? Nope!

Remember the 'scud stud' reporter during Iraq 1? That was good stuff

I'm all about alt-facts. That's why my news comes from whoever is standing behind me in line at Publix.
