Note to followers of political entertainment.

Not everything is shocking, revealing, surprising, astonishing, astounding, frightening, appalling, stunning…..or whatever word they use to get your ire. Foxnews and others like them use those words for a reason. If you see them, you’re not reading or watching news, you’re being entertained.

Probably arguing in court that they're not news

But entertainment. I don't recall other major outlets making that claim. Losing a defamation suit for $700M for lying to their audience doesn't exactly help.

They're both entertainment and not news,

but which one do you think has more influence? I still enjoy the convenient "bothways" that FOX News has more viewers than all the other networks combined (when it supports an argument), or that they're all equals (when it supports an argument, like this one).

Lulz. Please, tell me you actually believe FOX News has

enjoyed the success it has because of Brett Baier, and not because of Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, and Laura Ingraham.

Shep Smith was the best anchor that network ever had, and we all know why he walked.

The difference between Fox and MSNBC ….

May 26, 2023, 10:58 AM [ in reply to They're both entertainment and not news, ]

Both mix News with hyperbolic rhetoric for partisan entertainment.

Fox knowingly and admittedly embraced lies and mistruths, some of which damaged other private enterprises and individuals. The editors and management of MSNBC didn’t overtly cross that line. They had their entertainment hosts exercise a modicum of restraint and qualification of unproven allegations. Admittedly a fine line but worth about $787,500,000

just as Jesus demonstrated. You obviously missed that lesson. Perhaps you should change who you follow or ,gasp, cultivate some honorable traits and learn how to lead people.

Your act is stale, btw.
