My advice, and I'm sure you already follow it...

Don't watch TV news!

It is all biased.

If you do watch, be VERY selective.

Here on this thread, we've been exposing media bias for 25 years. In some ways, it is much more subtle. In the earlier years of Fox News, the other networks had a narrative that was pretty simple in its leftness.

The benefit of the Fox News early days was it not only exposed this, but told the conservative side of things, not to promote conservatism, but to at least show both sides of the day-to-day issues.

After twenty years, everyone knew this. Fox thinks it can change and be more mainstream.

I doubt this will work, because the Left simply hates them, and will not allow that. You might see the mighty Fox News empire go belly up before it can become just another Leftist source of talking heads and bloviating faces.

There is new media out there, video sites, blogs, forums like this one, etc.

Above all, the last 7 years or so have really, truly schooled us. First, there was the 2016 election. So many lies but the surprise at the end that Hillary! was NOT inevitable. That's when Obama started "Operation Trump-Russia".

THEN "journalists" decided to not only oppose Trump, but to lie even, in an effort to destroy him and us.

Because if you believe all of those things, you have to throw out the textbook American journalism has been using for the better part of the past half-century, if not longer, and approach it in a way you’ve never approached anything in your career. If you view a Trump presidency as something that’s potentially dangerous, then your reporting is going to reflect that. You would move closer than you’ve ever been to being oppositional. That’s uncomfortable and uncharted territory for every mainstream, nonopinion journalist I’ve ever known, and by normal standards, untenable. But the question that everyone is grappling with is: Do normal standards apply? And if they don’t, what should take their place?

That's one of those times that modern journalism died, except it never really lived, but at least we could quote how they REALY felt about objectivity.

Then the Dossier, Comey Firing, the Jeff Sessions recusal, Flynn firing, Mueller, democrats wining 2018 House--immediately Pelosi became the Anti-Trump go to gal, along with an impeachment about a perfect phone call about the biggest corruption in USA history--the Biden Family Syndicate.

But still, didn't Trump look strong and stay strong throughout? Every poisoned arrow the Left/DNCMedia shot at him bounced off. You could smell their fustration.

And then the Weapon of the Century: Covid.

It was used to stop Trump. Period. Full stop.

All in all, it was a really bad flu. It was not a death sentence for more than 1% of the planet's human beings. Seriously. Think about that, then think about the total hysteria drummed up by the Global Media and how they forced reluctant governments to overreact and complicit governments to pull out all stops in the name of medical necessity.

All the mail in ballots, because voting in public would get you sick and dead! Such a blessing to the cheaters! Many people do not vote--they don't care or have reasons. But a total mail out of ballots means party operatives can collect from known non-voters (there are rolls of voters published) and vote FOR them. That's how they got 81 million votes.

Fox News decided they day Biden "Won" to dump Trump. Those who tried to point out election irregularities and actual proof of cheating were muzzled.

The Supremes said no one had standing, and we were still in the middle of Covid hysteria--no one could protest a la TEA Party and the Theft was accomplished.

Since then, the world slowly woke up from the Covid Fever Dream and found the planet in tatters--inflation, ruined economies, war, gender dysphoria, borders without walls, and a completely political and lying medical establishment; all which led to disbelief in millions of people, who now have simply lost their trust in every insitution, all to get Trump out of office. Those who won't wake up still watch TV News.

I don't know what will happen to Fox. Still, I doubt they'll make it as just another press organ for the Left/Government.

If they die, good riddance. We lost Rush. We can lose Fox News without a single tear.
