I had someone at work try to tell me that Trump only won in 2016 because the “NewsCorp media” are so heavily biased pro-Trump.....!? I explained to her that basically the same media landscape existed when Obama won twice, and I gave her all the data about media outlets overwhelmingly endorsing Hillary & 98% of journalists’ donations going to Hillary.
But I still couldn’t change her mind. She still thinks that having one conservative news outlet - FOX - is one too many.
You can turn Fox News on every day and want to throw up listening some of the liberal shit their people spout. You can't find a conservative point of view whatsoever on any of the other networks. Fox is semi-conservative, if you stretch the meaning of the word! It only seems conservative because the MSM is so fucking far left. How many years did viewers have to suffer Alan Colmes, Shepard Smith, Bob Beckel, Susan Estrich, Kristen Powers, Megyn Kelly, and Sally Kohn, to name a few? How many more years do viewers have to suffer Geraldo Rivera, Juan Williams, Howard Kurtz, and Chris Wallace? The first real conservative network would put Fox out of business in a heartbeat. It would be the equivalent of switching from reddit to thedonld.win!
Whoops
But muh Fox News!
