In other words, Fox is, by your own admition, a propaganda organ that consistently hypes GOP talking points -- often creating them from whole cloth when the need arises. In short, they are not a news organization. They have more in common with the work of Leni Riefenstahl than Edward R Murrow.
I owe you an apology. I made a big mistake. A few days ago, I said that I thought that you were capable of actual thought, and I was completely wrong about that. I apologize for the misjudgment.
In this case, you quote one sentence of mine, but you either didn't read or were incapable of comprehending the previous paragraph in the same post. I was making the point that the mainstream media blindly and mindlessly covers for Biden, and never criticizes Biden's policiies, no matter how stupid and destructive they are. Only Fox News provides balanced and accurate coverage, either supporting or criticizing Biden, depending on the situation.
Fox never supports the left, center or even the center right. It's full-right full-time. Nothing is balanced ... ever! Note how effectivel;y they've managed to kill many of their own supporters by shilling for nonsense COVID policies and against vaccines. In foreign affaris, they have no philosophy, or they wouldn't have switched from hard neocon in the pre-Trump days to ... I don't even know anymore. They've even played XOXO with the Taliban, so God only knows what they believe -- probably nothing based on the evidence.
If your "news" is sourced on the hard-right media, no wonder you have a twisted idea of what's true.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
