Members phkrause Posted September 1, 2023 Author Members Posted September 1, 2023 Another day, another outright hoax promoted on Fox News Fox "News" is a propaganda outfit intended to manipulate public opinion by bending the "news" to preferentially be whatever the Republican hard right would most like it to be. Sometimes this means reporting real news with a conservative edge to it; sometimes it means peddling hoaxes, often in tacit coordination with the Republicans who invented them to begin with. We're supposed to believe that if Fox only promotes a certain percentage of fake stories, they still retain legitimacy as a "real" news outlet, but there's never a number put to that. Can a legitimate news outlet run one completely made-up story a day and retain legitimacy? Is it fine if the hoaxes run mostly during prime-time hours? Can a network promote $790 million worth of fake news, but not $795 million? https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2023/8/29/2190173/-Fox-News-boosts-anti-Biden-hoax-because-it-s-not-a-real-news-outlet?
