    A lot of people confuse Fox’s talking heads/opinion content with their newsroom. The actual news stuff isn’t that bad, it’s the pundits who are just outright liars.

    It doesn’t help that they don’t do a clear job of distinguishing these, but they are distinct in quality.

      Fox News is an “entertainment network” per their own lawyers, so I will never take them seriously.

      Plus regardless of content, they played a BIG role into the whole “elections were stolen” bullshit.

        Again, I believe that argument was made regarding their opinion content. But feel free to correct me if I’m misremembering.

        The company as a whole is trash but they do some OK reporting at times. If you recall there was a major controversy in 2020 because their newsroom accurately called the election for Biden fairly early and their viewers went apeshit.
