foxnews does propaganda very effectively.

they have a compelling narrative, they constantly reinforce their own themes and denigrate alternative world views and other news/media sources.

they make it very comfortable to stay in their bubble and very uncomfortable to leave it.


you can tell immediately by questioning a foxnews viewer. they are instantly very uncomfortable having a legitimate discussion and quickly fall back on highly emotional displays, clearly out of frustration because foxnews destroys their ability to carry a debate. all they have is shouting and anger.

"why are you challenging my trite catch-phrases and buzzwords? that never happens on foxnews!"

I would bet good money that Rupert Murdoch provided a back channel between Russia and the US. I think Fox News is one of the missing links in this whole investigation.
