So the more important question, why do you even watch it ??? I watch it sometimes because I KNOW those are opinion shows, commentators, same on all the other networks. When I watch "news", it's a surfing night for me, my fascination is how the "same" story is not even recognizable from network to network. It's a shame really, we (the people) are really in such a dangerous time, we have no source of actual news reporting, it's all for $$$, to be as entertaining as possible and bring in the "big bucks" !

Not that anyone will pay attention, but (mostly) non-biased news sources do exist.

Check out AllSides dot com. They have a comprehensive rating system for bias and fact-checking and display news stories with center, left, and right leaning reporting together.

Unsurprisingly, Fox is far right, and CNN is sadly now far left. There is no money in centrist reporting anymore.

I’ve been a Pfizer shareholder for many years. The company’s net profit in 2021, 2 years into COVID, was about the same as it was in 2017, 2 years before COVID! Their stock price today is about what it was at the end of 2018, a year before any thought of a COVID vaccine.

So where does this impression of ‘record profits’ come from? And why does the media keep portraying Pfizer as the ‘enemy’? A lot of people would be dead if all the drug companies disappeared!

If Fox News says it you can bet it’s a lie!
