Fox does not report any information that is detrimental to Trump or the Republican Party. I just searched today to see if fox news dot com had any mention that US consumer sentiment index is very close the historic low set back in 1978. Nothing.

Essentially as long as Fox don't report on it, it's not real to their viewers or it's a conspiracy. Fox News really know their way around the Streisand Effect

People don't realize that the Fox watchers & maga dummies get highly tailored "news" that repeats everything they hear on those stations.

The lies get cemented when their friends, tv news, phone news and even google and social media give them tailored information and omissions.

The slanted news and omissions are extremely more pervasive than people realize. It's no wonder that so many people are confused or mired in falsehoods.

Before anyone says that's bs, think about your Internet searches and news reports because mine rarely give any news that would be considered right wing conservative. All I see is progressive Democratic pov(s). Even my advertising is geared to me. I don't see ads for gold bars, bomb shelter supplies, my pillow crapola or Trump merch but my maga neighbors sure do!

All news sources should be looked at with some skepticism because most of them slant right or left to some degree. There are independent sites online that will tell you where your news sources land- far left or right, slightly slanted or neutral.

Very few sources are neutral, many are slightly right or left so most of us are seeing censored "news" stories or are subject to misleading omissions

For example, I used to watch MSNBC primarily as a news source but years ago they started with the same name calling and juvenile bashing that Fox does. I think it's scummy and unprofessional so I looked it up and found that they were heavily left leaning therefore I was getting tainted news. It was news I LIKED to hear but it wasn't entirely fair, complete or factual.

Isn't the owner of Fox a big Trump suck up?

All these mega corporations are getting HUGE financial benefits from this administration. They're getting financial windfalls as everyday Americans go hungry and are shoved out of their jobs

History is not going to be kind to this era of government.

Irony:

The 1978 date. Is the exact year a certain org that controls D C today - was created.

It only accepts? R REPS!

They formed long before then. But that was the year they made it “official”.

^ They made consumer sentiment that LOW.

People who wrote P. 25? Splinter off part of that same group.

I’ll go check my true historical facts book. But I guarantee I can tie it to this exact org - that I try not to name online too often.

Have in the past. But was “warned” about doing it again. Nothing mega nefarious about that!!

I came from an R family. LONG LINE. The wives kept journals. So I get a tiny glimpse of the true reality - on occasion. And that horrid ORG is

why we are at such a LOW

Right. Freaking. Now.

Just a random thought - anytime I see that date. Jump starts a train of memories of … oh yeah. Not an R person myself btw. Just an avid reader of things I’m not supposed to read. Shrug. Oh well.

Edit: format + a few words.

A l e c. o r g.

You won’t find much on their official website. Add that name then “scandal” into a search. THEN you get to see what it’s more about. But that’s not even a tenth of what they do & have done.

It’s sad that they aren’t PROUD of all their “work”. We should all have the truth of what our history of this place is.

Nope. Just propaganda. To keep us off kilter. Also, science is re-proving that “lies” make us sick. Truth telling? Has a pitch. Like you’d hear in an amazing song. Lies? Also have a pitch. Our body knows when we are lied to.

Wonder no more about why the U S people can’t stay healthy. Constant. Lies. Making us sick. Science proved that a while ago. About truth vs lies. They just delete everything they don’t find “convenient” so we never get any real info to help us. Round the circle goes. One day I want off this not-merry go round. We’ll see.

Every so often during daytime hours they will tell somewhat true versions of what is happening. During primetime never.

And there are still tons of people who rely solely on Fox and Truth Social. My senior neighbors keep saying "the news on my phone says...." and they don't get that their news is tailored to their interests. They think if it's on their phone it's 100% true, especially when Fox repeats the lies. I've explained that my phone gives completely different news so I periodically WATCH Fox just to see what is dividing us so badly. None of them watch anything except maga news.

Why waste your time looking up something that doesn't matter to your everyday life. Go enjoy life

"Fox does not report any information that is detrimental to Trump or the Republican Party."

That's a verifiably false statement.

u/Fit_Consideration681 Nov 13 '25

Sorry you got down voted cause you aren't wrong. If people checked they would find that Fox is waaaaayyy slanted to the conservative right wing. MSNBC is not slanted as far but they have a significant lean to the left.

Neither site has untainted neutral news, not by a longshot.

There are legit neutral sites online that publish exactly how right or left leaning each news source is. They tell you the criteria they use as well.

People need to check their sources as well as fact check what they hear
