Fox News’ Eric Shawn devoted a segment on Sunday afternoon debunking a number of claims made by President Donald Trump and his allies about a “rigged” election.
Shawn told viewers, “Rigged election? Well, your own government, election officials across the country, and voting experts say T not true. It’s not true. Baseless claims that are inflammatory, designed to undermine your faith in American democracy.”
He showed video from U.S. election security official Ben Hovland saying, “The reality is this was the most secure election we’ve ever had, and it was one of the most well-run elections we’ve ever had… And this is about facts, this is about truth, this is about respecting our democracy.”
So the videos showing election workers taping up black garbage bags and paper on the windows to the counting areas were fake?
So, FNC has alienated conservatives across the country with their recent shift to the left and decide to DOUBLE DOWN on stupid?
Great business plan.
Hope they enjoy being “CNN light” with less than 50% of their former audience.
They joined the rest of Media (Praetorian Guard) Infotainment, big tech, Academia, Big corporations, etc in the Governmentality of the US Citizen.
Regardless of the election outcome, however, repressive and propagandistic governmentalities—including academia, cultural institutions, culture industries, information and intelligence technologies, mass media, political movements, social media, woke corporations, and more—are combining to effect a totalitarian creep under which its subjects are complicit in their own subjugation and hellbent to impose it on others.

Whether Trump or not-Trump is finally declared the winner of the 2020 US presidential election, we are in for the battle of our lives. A constellation of state and state-extended apparatuses has openly declared war on liberty, on us. We are all thought criminals now. Risk aversion will not do. What we risk by being risk averse is everything that makes human life worth living. In the face of an enemy that brazenly revels in its totalitarian character, it is time to put everything on the line for liberty.
Very interesting that Fox “News” is doubling down on their big F.U. to their viewers. I guess they really believe that they can win over enough MSNBC and CNN viewers to stay afloat. I watched Judge Jeanine’s show as a sign of support when she is under siege from her own bosses apparently, but who do they expect to watch the shows that push DNC propaganda? From what I understand they’ve made no efforts at all to look at the other side, except to try to debunk mostly straw man arguments or rumors and pretend that the actual evidence doesn’t exist.
Shawn is doing the same thing that the NYT did: ask the people accused of rigging the election whether they committed fraud and set things up beforehand to ensure the outcome they wanted. It was obvious beforehand what the all too convenient answer was going to be. If that’s what proof means nowadays, I’m sure a lot of thieves, murderers, rapists, etc. will insist they are innocent and now should be let out of prison.
It’s extraordinary that Shawn uses one RINO to make the outrageous claim that Republican observers were allowed meaningful access to the ballots, when we literally have hundreds of sworn affidavits and videos that show that is a lie. And, hey, Dominion says everything’s fine with their software, so no questioning of it is allowed. The propagandists and the bureaucracy seem to be deliberately trying to do all they can to tell Republicans: “Sit down, shut up! We really don’t want to make any effort at all of looking legitimate. We have all the power now, so we view you as our subjects, not our fellow citizens. We want to do nothing to convince you, only offend you and suppress you, so we can show our superiority over you.”
He’s a New York City guy....
CNN, MSNBC and networks news never betrayed conservatives. They were always blatantly leftist. Fox News on the other hand has betrayed conservatives. There’s nothing worse than a traitor. Fox News needs needs to whither away as an example to other news outlets.
“He’s a New York City guy....”
New York City? Get a rope.
“The good news is few of us are watching Fox.”
Unfortunately Fox News is still broadcasting here on Free Republic.
Why anyone should believe a damned thing Anyone on FoxNews has to say especially after the crap they pulled on and after election day is beyond me. Fox News is History.Like in the past.
I hope they enjoy being below MSNBC.
Is he new?
Fox has the lefties like Chris Wallace, Juan and several others. But they are still home of the best conservative commentators like Lou, Tucker, Hannity - the entire weekday evening line up. Fox and Friends is conservative both the weekday and weekend crews. Mark Levin is about as good as it gets for our side on weekend evenings, along with three or four other conservative shows. To close these great conservative voices would be a huge blow to POTUS and to conservatism.
Maybe CNN is getting ready to purchase Fox and expand their low life operation. Fox does not appear to have a business plan to stay in business.
I truly don’t understand what the heck they’re doing.
