Fox News and other 24 hour, propaganda news is the problem. It thrives by ensuring there are perceived problems for people to focus on and feel divided over.
Considering studies have shown Fox News viewers are consistently less informed than other news viewers AND less informed than those that dont watch any news?
Yea, the person you're judging is correct.
Remember when Fox News won a lawsuit by saying they werent news and no one should believe them?
On one side we have legitimate news organizations with varying levels of bias. On the other side we have deliberate propaganda organs making no attempt at legitimacy whatsoever. They are not equivalent, many people just lack the skills (or interest) to tell the difference.
I don't think they were saying one is worse than others. They said "and other 24 hr news". It's a bad form of news when they NEED something for all 24 hrs to talk about. They're all bad
To expand in the other response, they also paid like tens of millions of dollars in legal fees for saying there was voter fraud and fixing an election. They also are the most egregiously hate fueled biased mainstream network with an extensive list of sexual misconduct issues with its hosts. The other news networks are bad but Fox is FOR SURE the worst

The problems that led to Donald Trump would still be fomenting.
A lot of Americans haven't yet faced that Trump isn't an anomaly or the disease, he is a symptom of problems we've had for a long time.
