This is why Fox news has such a hold on viewers - it tells them what an angry part of them hopes to hear, true or not.


It isn't just Fox News. CNN and all the others are equally as bad.


There recently has been a race to the bottom, but Fox has been false-outrage-baiting for decades before any of the other outlets did so. Rush Limbaugh, Alex Jones, et al. too.

And really nasty too, at least until Fox and Alex Jones lost their respective lawsuits.

No one is innocent here, but they aren’t equal (as in the same).
