If you get your news from Fox the big stories of the day are...

"Clinton takes heat off Harvey"
and
Greedy North Korean dictator builds opulent palace as his people starve
and
New York Times imposes new policy to hide reporters’ liberal bias
and
Kentucky motel welcomes mare as guest

Way down the page under many other stories is:

Trump decertifies Iran nuclear deal, slaps sanctions on IRGC in broadside at ‘radical regime’
and
President cuts payments to ‘pet insurance companies,’ triggers war with Dems

---

The fact Trump is actively destroying medical care for millions and is moving towards allowing Iran to make nuclear weapons again just isn't that big a deal.

when the truth comes out, BLOTUS is exposed and their hero is exposed for the treasonous rat-bastard he is.

You could watch CNN or the Big Three (when their evening news still mattered), then turn to Fox and they're talking about some tempest in a teapot or a Republican fever dream that makes news nowhere else.

Just one example: I never thought undocumented immigration would ever rise to be a national issue, and it never would have if conservative radio and television hadn't screamed about it every single day for a decade.
