Your post is sheer propaganda. If one actually watches the entire segment, a completely different interpretation will probably be taken. (Eddie Perez gets about 3 minutes at the end of a 34-minute segment. Some people may simply call offering a different viewpoint ‘being fair and balanced’.):

How was that other freeper's original post "sheer propaganda?" I watched the video of Lou Dobbs' show that you helpfully linked. And I came away agreeing far more with the original poster's view than with your "interpretation." That wasn't Fox News being "fair and balanced" as you claim. Instead, it was Fox News washing Smartmatic's hands of any involvement whatsoever in any kind of election fraud or voter fraud in the 2020 U.S. elections. Basically, Fox News's 3-minute segment at the end of Dobbs' show says: Smartmatic did absolutely nothing wrong (and was barely even involved in the 2020 U.S. elections, except in Los Angeles).
You are certainly entitled to your opinions. You can call it “fair and balanced” reporting if you wish but it appears more like “passing the buck” or “dodging the issue” to me. Go back and check the several reports that Lou Dobbs made about Smartmatic since the election because they directly contradict the information the guy was spouting at the tail end of the show. It appears (at least to me) that Lou got his tail caught in a crack and is now trying to play it down the middle, “There are lots of opinions out there about Smartmatic.” No kidding...there a lots of opinions about almost anything you can think of. If he had as much integrity as he professes, he would have called out this guy being interviewed...but he didn’t. Rather, he gave Smartmatic a headline that probably undermines the credibility of the Trump’s claims regarding Smartmatic;s role in stealing the election. Maybe he will address this very soon (I hope he does...I’d like to think differently about him), but if he ignores the issue or pulls his punches when he reports on it, we can rest assured that someone has pulled his leash. I’d hoped that he was made of better stuff. Propaganda? Whatever....
