I just spent 15 minutes watching Fox "News" at the top of the hour.

Holy shit! How do people not understand this is not a news channel?

If you want to understand why people still support this president, tune at the top of the hour and listen to the spin.

My question is: How do we counter this? How do people wake up?

1. Yup it is a completely different world in fox town.

Yesterday every news agency on the planet except fox had the intelligence leak as it's headline. Fox had Hillary's emails...

2. Fox News is one of the main reasons

Why we have President Trump and why we are so divided.

4. Yes, indeed! Old man Murdoch is *supposedly* a pal of tRump*s....

...disgusting thought that it is. Even after all the evidence shows tRump* is a liar, thief, cheat and a TRAITOR, Faux will still carry tRump*s vile, disgusting water.

5. One thing I hate about Fox News

Is the false equivalency "yeah fox is conservative, but MSNBC is liberal"

6. most of them believe it because they WANT to believe it

If Fox they have access to other sources also .

7. Buy a Cable News Network...If you just happen to be rich!

The way Fox did it. Be a rich, non-USA citizen and buy a cable news network. It should be against the law.
This is why the rich stay rich. Control. Think of it...where's the money to buy pro_American working-class channel?
But, maybe Warren Buffett can help.

9. I would if I could. Welcome to DU!

11. I have way too many family and friends who ONLY watch Fox "News."

You can't counter it. I talked to one of my in-laws and gave the names of books and articles about the history of Fox "News," and how it was not an actual news station. How they have have no actual news division, it's pure partisan entertainment. They wanted none of it. I was just the hippie liberal puke, Bill O'Reilly speaks the truth when others lie. I think it's impossible to break through this. It's pretty frightening.
