thought Fox News supported the Conservative viewpoint

Why would you want this anyway. Give me a network that is reporting the news straight up. Fox does lean heavily to the right, but they will call shite out when they see it. Although, I would prefer a network that just reports the news, I appreciate one that calls out something they don't agree with if they are only putting out opinion pieces.

I have no problem whatsoever with Fox having differing viewpoints, great. I do have a problem with every other network having only one viewpoint and now dropping any pretension of reporting the news and simply turning into a delirious stream of consciousness of Trump hate and sabotage

I get that technically that is true. But IMHO they are now owned the same way Nancy is property of China.

Only 4 or 5 on air personalities on fox news have carried water for trump.

Most of fox news used to treat trump neutrally. During the whole Russia hoax, they mainly just reported shite from an on the fence perspective. Because they didn't go completely in on the Russia hoax, other networks accused them of carrying trump's water.

It was a case of... if you don't take part in the howling mob, and throw stones at a woman who has been falsely accused of extramarital sex, because she was raped... then you are evil and you are a fanboy of that woman.

But yeah.. the part of fox news that was neutral had started leaning more and more left over the last couple of years. Idk what is going on behind the scenes there. The major turning point for me was the judge nap situation.

Judge nap factually stated that foreign intel agencies collected intel on trump's campaign and then sent it to our intelligence agencies.. within 2 days after saying that, judge nap was suspended from fox news because of that statement. After he was finally allowed back on air, his personality was completely different. He abandoned all of his previous opinions and stances on the Russia hoax. His new personality seemed to matchup with the mindless drones of CNN and MSNBC.

They are "fair and balanced" not Republican party press agency. If you only want to see Trump cheerleading stick with Hannity.

The absolute worst thing about every news channel is that any piece of news we receive has to be “editorialized” with right or left spin. There is no way to get the news without it being filtered some way. It’s why I can’t watch cable or the networks.

False


You are correct, at the time of the deal fox news and sports was spun off as another entity. Disney wanted the movie library of 21 century fox (now we know why with their new pay service "channel") they had no use for the news or sports because they already had ABC and ESPN.

Funny thing

I have more respect for Wallace then I do BB. Wallace is out in the wide open about his agenda but BB tries to tap dance on a razor blade while failing miserably.

Like...serving the 'Muh Russia' MSM narrative by asking questions that support such a narrative. Yeah...that's a good way to be "fair and balanced" in service to Journalistic integrity.
