If you are ensconced in Fox “News,” I implore you to check out some other sources to see what Fox isn’t telling you right now. They have been sued for their lies, and the evidence against them was so overwhelming that they settled for more than half a billion dollars. They didn’t want their dirty laundry aired out in court.

All the commentators, including Sean Hannity and the recently departed Tucker Carlson, would have been on the stand under oath, admitting that they have been deliberately lying to their audience. There are tapes of them saying one thing on the air and the opposite off the air, like text messages from Carlson saying that he “hates Trump passionately.” I’ll bet that’s not what you’ve been hearing from him on the air! Check it out. You’ve been lied to. You’ve been fed a steady diet of lies, crackpot conspiracy theories and “alternative facts,” as literally confessed by Kellyanne Conway.

Fox “news” isn’t news at all. It is owned by Rupert Murdoch, who is very rich and wants to be richer. For that he needs Republicans in office, who will lower their taxes, driving up the national debt.

But the debt is for tomorrow. These greedy Republicans care only about getting rich today, to hell with our kids who will have to pay off the debt.

Conversely, CNN is a world-respected purveyor of what’s actually going on. It only looks left wing to you because Fox told you so.
