Well, if you demonize the MSM and chalk up everything as "fake news", especially over the course of 4 years, it's going to result in people thinking that the only trustable media is unverifiable media. Seems to be the case with so many right-wingers being influenced by QAnon and Project Veritas.

I heard there's a mass exodus from Fox and instead people are moving to Newsmax.

I'd say Trump probably just heavily invested in it behind the scenes, but it doesn't have his name on it so its unlikely.

there was already a mass exodus from most MSM outlets including FOX, CNN, NYT, go down the list

Trump kept them on life support

It's over now for all of them once Biden begins his tenure

Ya its a reality check for fox im sure with just what type of audience they cultivated. If only because they're watchers are so fragile that the fox bottom line can get crushed just for reporting data state election officials send them.

I'm most disturbed by this media doesn't call elections trend. Its a strawman people really are intent on beating to a pulp. Its just pure fact reporting of data they're sent. No network im aware of called states until the data they got supported it. And I don't see a single state any network reversed as of yet. Just odd that got so much play

I think there were a few that uncalled Arizona and then recalled it for Biden, but no reversals that I'm aware of either.

They're also scared of being regulated. If there's another stunt like in 2000 where people leave the lines at the polls because a network called the election already the losing party is going to start making heads roll.

Why do i see this coming up as a source of anything in conservative discussions? If a well known serial liar with a history of fabricating evidence tried to present something i wouldn't even click on it but james o keefe is seen as a hero on the right for the type of "journalism" he does for some reason 🤔

Its 2020 and i still see him cited on this forum too.


When did they ever lie?

Or are you as bad as the telenetworks now?
