That's simply not true, though you may think so if all you know about
are Tucker and Hannity.
But the 6 pm ET "Fox Report" is totally balanced, or at most
center-right. Bret Baier's reporting is almost totally non-partisan,
and the panels always contain a Democrat Party strategist who is given
plenty of time to present the Democrat Party position.
However, even the analysts aren't monolithic. For example, some of
them hate Trump. The Covid policies are a good example, because it
shows how stupid the Democrats are. Yes, there are a variety of
opinions expressed on Fox about Covid policies, mostly opposing forced
masking or lockdowns. But remember that 18 months ago Trump was
talking about a Covid lab leak, and the Democrat idiots were calling
that a "conspiracy theory." Then a few months ago, the Democrats were
humiliated by having to admit that a lab leak was possible. I recall
ABC's Jonathan Karl saying, "Just because Trump said something doesn't
mean it wasn't true." But there are lots of things like that, where
the Democrats called them conspiracy theories, and had to make
humiliating retreats.
But you're obviously missing the whole point. You listen to the sewer
channels like CNN, where you only get the news approved the Democrat
Party censors, and that's wrong most of the time. Fox News has people
that state lots of different opinions. Occasionally, some of them
turn out to be wrong, but most of them turn out to be right. That's a
GOOD thing. That's why the Fox slogan is: "We report, you decide."
The CNN slogan is: "We report, and we decide for you." CNN is perfect
for someone incapable of actual thought.
You should watch Fox's 6 PM ET newscast. You may discover you like it
much better than whatever garbage you currently listen to.
By the way, I'm curious to know what you mean by, "They've even played
XOXO with the Taliban." I don't know what that means, and I didn't
even know that you watched Fox News.
Once again, simply not true. I also get my news from MSNBC, the BBC,
al-Jazeera, C-Span, and other broadcast sources, as well as dozens of
online sources. In the last few days, I've watched a lot of MSNBC's
coverage of Afghanistan. All in all, I believe that I am better
informed than you or 99.9% of the rest of the world. I have to be, in
view of the huge number of people like yourself that constantly attack
me.
