There is another article her now that gives a totally different view of this incident. It looks like the boys were wearing MAGA hats, and that is probably why the news is slanted against them. But FOX?

FOX is actually about as bad as any of the other compromised media.

but fox?


I don’t know about all other Fox local news stations in the country but in “Detroit” (they actually are in the next county, Oakland,but say “Detroit”—too dangerous to actually have the stations in the deadly city itself.) the Fox attitude is to pretend to be really caring about the African Americans and others. They also hire a quota of blacks to be talking heads.

They have mostly black violent crime and child neglect stories, babies left in a trash dumpster by the mother,carjacking victims interviewed and so on.

I’ve always thought the kissing up was silly because a huge majority of viewers do not live in the city of Detroit, which has had an enormous decline in population. 1.8 million in 1950, 700,000 in 2010.
All the growth in housing and businesses has been in the areas outside Detroit.

About 1% of actual black Detroit residents make up the attendance at Detroit Tiger or Lions games, for instance.
Sometimes the camera crew finds 2-3 black couples or families during 2-3 hours of coverage (I started counting them as a pastime during lulls in the “action”.

Funny slipup by Detroit Tigers front office a few years ago: one guy said “We are disappointed with so many Latin players on the Tigers so few of the thousands of Mexican Americans living in the city ever go to our games.” Like, why don’t those idiots reward us financially for kissing up to them?He had to apologize and try to retract it.So why act like the ad money is going to bear fruit pretending to care about them?

All local TV news here including Fox will jump at the chance to feature “global warming caused by humans says local high school teacher who wants to raise awareness” or “local women set to go to Women’s March-— hear them sound off at 11.”

This was a local Fox affiliate, not the Fox News Channel. I’m not sure to what extent the parent company directs editorial policy.
