More at 6:00, 8:00, and 11:00.

That's not what happened here. It should be, "crazy person goes on crazy person's show hosted on crazy man's network to imitate crazy person doing crazy thing for attention, all joyous participants in negating real struggles of people everywhere."

That's a more detailed, accurate take, yes.

There’s nothing crazy about fox news . it’s the number one news channel right now and for a valid reason. because they’re the only ones who actually do news and don’t lie constantly, so is the only place on TV a neutral political person can get the least lies and propaganda. I’m not even a Republican and I would trust them over any other news source on television - that’s not where I go to get my news but the world has flipped upside down in the last decade.

If you use the term “News” loosely enough
It’s more of a political commentary than news channel

They’re only the only one telling the truth if you assume everyone else but them is lying, often in unison.
We are the only ones telling the truth! Trust us, we swear we aren’t lying.

That’s literally all of tv though.

No fox is the only one that doesn’t lie constantly, they’re pretty judgy and plenty of times get on a high horse about some shit, but they aren’t just making shit up or manipulating something that did happen to make it look like it was something else almost every other station does that I mean literally every single other major news outlet. Try looking up lies Trump tell during his presidency, then look up lies Biden told. I’m not even a republican and that disturbed me. According to taglines of googles results Trump-30000 lies. Biden 0 Which if you follow the news regularly and try to be neutral, you know that ain’t right. I think the people who own all these networks need to be investigated because so many of them just make stuff up and people buy it that’s dangerous. I didn’t realize it was that outta control till this week.

Do we have the same Fox News?
Justbe333 t1_j4whx4s wrote
There’s only one, so yeah

We have wildly different experiences watching the same channel then. Reality is funny sometimes.

That’s why I gave them any credit in the first place is I’ve had a mental block on them for about 20 years anything they say I just don’t wanna hear it cause fuck them I’ll get my news somewhere else. Then I realized how often the other outlets were flat out lying because I pay attention. I would instantly know some of the things they were lying about look up things that would corroborate my memory to make sure and sure is hell they were lying so I started back checking them on anything that they claimed that was outrageous or damning. They mostly just lie. This has not been the case throughout my life, in fact, until about 6 months before Trump became president CNN was mostly honest. You can always trust CNN to be left leaning but fair not liars. I don’t know what the fuck happened but now it’s practically all of them. I still hate Hannity and I don’t care to watch Fox like my parents would I’ll just catch the highlights but when I check them for bullshit by digging around, I don’t find lies. Or at least I haven’t found one for quite a while and don’t think for one second that doesn’t pain me to have to admit I used to hate Tucker Carlson_he was a joke on CNN. Now, he’s one of the better journalists alive. Hate having to say it ,but fair is fair.

I kind of like Epoch, but their agenda is really clear in their coverage. Most of Fox is political commentary. When they actually do journalism, they’re not the worst, but literally no one anymore is clear on where the lines in their content are.
I respect the journey you’ve been on with them. Kudos to you for paying attention, checking sources and verifying information.
Edit: I love how pointing out things like in Capitalist America, to modern news outlets YOU are the product they are selling gets you down votes. I never understood the Cynic philosophers until Reddit. I owe you all for that, so I am grateful.
