FOX News, Do people buy this stuff ?

[Peterw42]

I flicked on Fox news this morning, I find it entertaining just how far they can push the envelope.

Oreilly with a story about Ivanka Trumps clothing line not selling and being drooped by some outlets, saying its proof of an Obama, Alt left media, democrat plot to bring down the presidency. Do people buy this rubbish ? 

Given that the presenters refer to themselves as hosts or presenters, not journalists, do people consider it a legitimate news outlet or Trumps media office ?

As opposed to Twitter, Facebook, Line, etc.?

Difference being, they dont present themselves as News outlets, and I can question and respond to social media.

In just about the same proportion as people on the left side of the apolitical spectrum buy MSNBC.... seriously.

Do yourself a favor, don't flick it on.

There's no need to be afraid of a different point of view which reflects a fair and balanced representation of newsworthy events...

The worst is Sean Hannity. Alt-right conspiracy theorist gone mad. Seems to genuinely believe the narcissistic nonsense he spouts.

Hannity is a GOD. That's why they booted his old partner and gave him sole ownership of his show.

Yes, I realise there is a left biased media etc. But The way Trump has set it up, does not take criticism or questioning from the left, its all fake. This has empowered Fox etc.

This certainly going to turn into a political discussion and those are not allowed on this forum.
