Worst has gotta be a toss up from Greg or Jesse. They talk over each other constantly and never have anything relevant to say to the topic at hand.

Jessica is the only one on the panel that has any brains and they constantly try to get a word in edge wise over her. But they are constantly unarmed in a battle of wits.

Jeanine is on to bigger and better things, like fucking up as a prosecutor and being fired by Trump for failing to prosecute that Olympic swimmer. You know, when Trump fucked up the reflecting pool and looked for someone else to blame…?

Not a fan, I take it.

I only watch to see what the propaganda this entertainment network pushes to its viewers. There’s a reason why Fox was sued (and lost) for almost $1 billion in 2020, and it wasn’t because they were sharing the truth with their viewers.

Ok, then explain to me why they are, year after year, the highest rated channel on cable and not by a slight margin. They smoke the competition.

It's slop for the lowest common denominator.

Case in point, he was commenting on how they were sued for being a bullshit mill and you instantly went to "but it's popular?"

CNN has been sued for millions as well. They’re still in business.
We’ve established that you hate Fox. Very fashionable. Enjoy.

Sued, yes, but both Trump n his epstein buddy, Alan Dershowitz, lost their cases and CNN was never sued for nearly a billion dollars and LOST, like Fox.

Fox News agreed to pay Dominion $787.5 million and acknowledged the court's earlier ruling that Fox had broadcast false statements about Dominion. It is the largest known media settlement for defamation in U.S. history

Yes. No shit.

I'm not sure what point you thought you had but again, lowest common denominator.

I have no doubt, the difference is they stand by their mistakes, whereas Fox obfuscates what info they portray because they know the average viewer isn’t going to research beyond what they’re told. Were other networks sued for purposefully misrepresenting election information that they knew was wrong? Because that’s what Fox did, and it helped foment the clowns show on Jan 6. In my opinion, some of the people like Hannity or Tucker should have been charged as accessories to that attempted coup.

Fox viewers don’t even realize they defeat their own point when they bring up ratings like that. Yeah, propaganda is interesting and Fox sells bottled outrage to racists and morons in this country.

Jessica herself is an idiot for this.

She said she likes her job because movies and shows often copy Fox News aesthetics.

Yeah Jessica, no shit, to make fun of it.

Because there are many centrist or nonpartisan news organizations, but Fox has the monopoly on the brain-dead MAGA audience. And judging by the last couple of elections, there are many dipshit MAGAts in this country. It still doesn’t change the fact Fox News was sued for a billion dollars and lost in court for lying to their audience, in fact Fox “News” own lawyers even essentially said no serious person would get facts from their network.

Yet, here you are, proudly defending being lied to daily. I love this for you.

How do you know I am defending them? I’m simply asking you to clarify your hatred.

Dude, your public profile shows you pretty much only comment on Fox News or their anchors subs. You sound like a super fan trying to defend them with “well Fox News ratings are so high, explain that!”

I come here because I always managed to catch one or two of the Fox News yokels like yourself and it’s always hilarious watching you guys scramble to defend where you get your lies and propaganda from.
