    I haven't watched cable news for "news" since Election Night 2016. I still miss Red Eye on FNC very much and occasionally watch Gutfeld's show off DVR.

    Thoughts?

    You don't think Trump built his whole platform on the premise that the media is the enemy of the state? That's been the Conservative chant since Rush in the 90s carried through to Fox news.
    Trump, and Rush, are wrong about that. But the media have fucked so many things up in the last 24 months that they are playing into that narrative. And that's a completely unforced error. With all the preposterous shit Trump says, a simple recitation of in print moves copies. He makes it easy. Instead, well, refer to that Russiagate essay from a couple days ago.
    I'll concede that the media is shit. Agreed?

    Ok, here's a serious question. Fox news screamed for years about Obamacare will crater the economy, death panels, so many other lies. Hell they even blasted Obama for killing bin ladin. And they are the most watched cable news Network. I always wonder why the side that listens to that, never questions those lies but blasts CNN and such.

    To be fair, that's why I generally read both sides. Not that the internet news is any better, but you can see both sides and make your decision from there.
    You always use Fox v. CNN/MSNBC in your arguments about journalistic bias. I know it makes it easier. But you shouldn't. Cable news is a poor source for much of anything. AP/Reuters and the major newspapers do most of the real work and set the agenda. Not always, but usually.

    Fuck it, I don't want to write anything more about this.
    This.

    LowIQCirrho is almost as quiet as he was for weeks or months after his mental dominatrix lost in 2016.
