I am always curious as to how they present some of the news that is current. I came away with the impression that there is a slow, very slow, turning at Fox.
There are just some things even fox cannot support that President Trump has either said or done. I get the feeling its like a slow boil. Even Fox can see which way the wind is blowing and they are adjusting, slowly turning the knob, bit by bit on the oven.

People will go to prison over Covid-19 but I'd prefer if the Con was infected.

They call CNN the Comunist News Network. I kept my mouth shut us Democrats were out numbered 10 to 2.

Frankly, I believe the people at Fox are so completely corrupt and unprincipled and so routinely betray everything they claim to support that I believe there's nothing they couldn't do, only what the upper echelons decide is in their cabal's interest. It's all about winning, growing RW power, and toward that end they will continue to feed their viewers' beliefs back to keep them on the leash.
