FOX NEWS IS A DISGRACE

[Vēritās]

So after railing against Biden for weeks over the Palestine train incident, the GOP is criticizing Democrats for trying to pass legislation that would coerce the rail companies to implement more safety measures, calling them burdensome and premature!

GOP urges no ‘burdensome regulations’ on freight rail, after derailment

Gotta love the “it’s your fault for letting the accident happen but we’ll obstruct any effort to prevent similar accidents in the future.”

You would think that the latest revelations about FOX would be damning enough, but I am just floored by the way the media is reacting to this. Mostly the clowns in social media doing podcasts who've been claiming not to be partisan at all. People like Joe Rogan. He and a number of other podcasters, even some who call themselves Progressives (Krystal Ball) are using this bombshell news story to smear MSNBC and CNN. Because you know, it is all about whataboutism. "They all do it." Hell, even Bill Maher is doing this same crap. It really does just blow my mind. He had Russell Brand on the other night who went on a long winded rant about how all media is corrupt and lies for profit and when one guy challenged him to produce examples he brought up the Ivermectin/Joe Rogan issue and then also brought up Rachel Maddow telling people the vaccine would prevent infection.

Seriously? Those are the two examples used to equate all MMM with FOX? Why do folks on the left take the bait and allow these people to completely shift the narrative as if CNN had done this?

CNN didn't "lie" about Rogan. They said he took Ivermectin which was a drug also used to deworm horses, which is just a fact. They never said he bought it at a livestock store, which is how Rogan interpreted it before going off on an unhinged rant. The vaccine reporting was never about anyone knowingly lying to their audience. Maddow reported what data the CDC had provided at the time, but then later on the virus mutated and the next thing you know we needed boosters. At which point the idiots on the Right go back in time to recreate history so they can say, "See Rachel Maddow lied to us!"

But seriously, how can Rogan claim to have no dog in this fight when all he does is whine about how the media lies to people but he never criticizes FOX? Even now he is ignoring these reports and attacking CNN again about the same dumb crap from over two years ago. Its like people don't even appreciate how significant and serious this lawsuit really is. It is typically impossible to successfully sue a media outlet for defamation because the law raised the bar so high that the prosecution has to prove intent and malice. Well, the FOX communications provide a smoking gun on that, and I think Dominion's biggest mistake was asking for only $1.6 billion. They should get that and then they should be fined another $5 billion for the damage they have caused.

This is a throwback from the Obama administration but is a clear example of FOX flat out lying on air and doing so willingly.
