Fox giving “news” while legally not being news has led to crimes, that’s a fact. Maybe prosecutor Kamala could go for a bite but damn it’d be nice to have the news be true again
Watergate is why we have fox news and right wing reality fabrication news. Roger Ailes had said (paraphrasing) “if we had a friendly media outlet Nixon would have never had to resign.” He then made it his mission to make a right wing media outlet.
It’s so infuriating seeing magoos talk about Truth™, Fake News, and BiAsEd MeDiA while consuming literal propaganda aimed specifically at conservatives to keep them voting R no matter what. (This is the part where the magoos head explodes with anger because MsNbC! yOu HaVe ThE sAmE MeDiA BiAS LiBTaRd!)
I swear the #1 issue in America, and most of the world that has to suffer Murdock owned media IS PROPAGANDA RUNNING RAMPANT!
I am so glad that you and others are aware of this. Media is our new religion, I don’t mean that sarcastically or dismissively. The part of our brains that wanted to listen to stories of gods and monsters is what makes us susceptible to carefully crafted media propaganda campaigns.
The “fairness doctrine” didn’t prevent news from being crazy entertainment. Watch the 1975 movie “Network”. Faye Dunaway runs part of a TV network that tries (among other things) to present videos from a terrorist organization as a weekly program. It was ridiculous, but plausible at the time.
FAIRNESS DOCTRINE!!!
