Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Man, those lawsuits must have really traumatized them for them to have changed their behavior this much. Love to see it though maybe Faux will be slightly less trash now.
Until he secures the GOP nomination. Then it'll go right back to All Trump, all the time.
Did it ever stop being that?
The difference will be that they'll put more effort into this. More "Wow. There is a lot to unpack there. Here is what The President is teaching us when he says this". Spin it as 4D chess where lowly peasants can't truly understand the wisdom.
If the old guy hated trump but still had corporate suck him off, why would "the new guy" matter at all?
The fox news audience wants trump. So they get trump. fox will try to lower their liability but they aren't going to give up even more market share to oan and the like.
Losing money is worse than losing a child to the ultra wealthy.
They don’t care about losing a child, they’re not worth any capital yet.
If you think the main goal of FOX News is money, you're missing the point. If FOX really cared about money, they wouldn't have folded so easily w/ Dominion.
The money is just a nice side-effect of the disinformation.
The Dominion settlement cost them a fortune, and they folded because they didn't have a case. The evidence against them was devastating.
Yes, but their viewers weren't told that and don't care to hear it. Fox is a pure propaganda outfit, and whatever the "both sides" morons say, there's no equivalent to it on the left. The settlement they reached was just the price of successfully boosting the propaganda Trump demanded from them.
They'll do it again as often as they have to.
If I recall correctly, it wiped out most of their profits for that year, it's not something they can do again and again as often as they have to. Fox News is a public company and it's illegal not to act in the fiduciary interests of the shareholders, that would open them up to more lawsuits.
It was a big enough deal that they fired their most popular right-wing mouthpiece, which seems to be pretty clear evidence that they care more about the almighty dollar. They will continue spreading Republican propaganda in the worst way that's legal instead.
FYI, the shareholder lawsuits just got started in September.
never gonna happen as long as the devil's spawn is running the show.
