Admit it: Fox News has been right all along (WAPO!)

WAPO ^ | 4/15/2019 | Gary Abernathy

Throughout most of southern Ohio, residents who watch cable news are predominantly glued to one channel: Fox News.

People there don’t watch Fox News to know what to think; they already know what they think, and they avoid news channels that insult their intelligence and core beliefs. Yes, Fox News is an echo chamber for the right, but no more than CNN and MSNBC are for the left, as far as conservatives are concerned. To be fair, when a Democrat is in the White House, the networks switch places, with Fox News criticizing every move, and MSNBC and CNN defending the Oval Office fortress.

But for now, while partisans on the left may quibble, the fact remains that on the subject of collusion with Russia by President Trump or his campaign, Fox News was right and the others were wrong. For at least two years, MSNBC and CNN devoted hour upon hour, day after day, to promoting the narrative that Trump colluded with the Russians, and that special counsel Robert S. Mueller III was going to prove it. That turned out to be wrong.

I don’t trust WaPo....for anything.

Do they think they have another shoe to drop?

[Jack Hammer]

This appeared in The Washington Post????

[Rastus]

I’ll quibble with one point: Fox News is hardly an echo chamber for the right. The hard news segments are just about as biased as the rest of the MSM and in the same direction. The opinion people are conservative. Shep, Bret, Napolitano, Cavuto et. al? They are just as sad as CNN that the president won’t be railroaded out of office.

Oh, that’s gonna leave a mark.

Can we start the arrests now? And you know, some people in the media need to be arrested too. This conspiracy is that big.

Nailed it!

Fox News hasn’t been Conservative in years.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

They’re not admitting anything. They’re just making a moral equivalency excuse.

[technically right]

This is satire, right.

Did hell just freeze over?

[Jane Long]

👍🏼 Bingo.

[Mr. K]

Mueller spent 2 years on a Russian Collusion investigation that HE KNEW TO BE FAKE.

I gave the Washington Post website a hit. It was worth it, even if the article strikes me as partially insincere.

“The opinion people are conservative. Shep, Bret, Napolitano, Cavuto et. al? They are just as sad as CNN that the president won’t be railroaded out of office.”

I agree and was going to post the same thing. Laura, Sean etc are the ones who have been right.

I’d love to see some of the comments on this piece at the WAPO website.

“I agree and was going to post the same thing. Laura, Sean etc are the ones who have been right.”

You actually get better information and you don’t have the ‘fair and balanced” BS to deal with over at Fox Business. Lou Dobbs doesn’t waste time like Tucker Carlson, who feeds his ego battling it out with that bald-headed RAT turd Chris Hahn.
Then there’s Stuart Varney and even Trish Reagan has a good show, although she has the “Hannity Curse” in that she talks over her guests quite often. You can forget Kennedy, she doesn’t have two brain cells to rub together.

#FakeNews scrambling to cover its butt.

[Telepathic Intruder]

They still go on to say that Fox News is an echo chamber for people on the right. Doesn't Fox News have liberal as well as conservative journalist? How many conservatives does CNN have? If they call themselves that, they're still Trump haters. But I'll give them credit where credit is due:

"There’s enough evidence in the public record to raise valid suspicions that the FBI’s investigation of the Trump campaign was motivated not by real concerns about national security, but rather by a loathing of the candidate".

That's something I wouldn't expect them to actually say.
