It took Chris Wallace 18 years to realizes Fox is a sewer

[Cyrano]

So Chris Wallace is leaving Fox "news." He claims what did it was his outrage over Tucker Carlson's "documentary" (which was a rancid pile of wingnut propaganda and poison),

Took Chris quite a while to realize that he was nothing more than a fig-leaf that Murdoch was using to be a pretend "news" outlet.

What took so long, Chris? Was it the money? Was it the only place that would hire you? How did you not smell the shit in which you were submerged? Did your conscience go on vacation for 18 years?

Congratulations, Chris. You were once an actual journalist. A good one. Yet, you've helped enable wingnuts to destroy truth and reality. Perhaps you didn't "pull the trigger," but you were present and on the wrong side during Fox's deadly assault on American democracy.

1. To be fair, the sewage really started flooding the main rooms

during the TFG's administration - before that it was mostly in the basement and stank only when you opened certain doors. He should have left much sooner but I'll give him at least a little credit for finally noticing that he was getting shit on his shoes whenever he went to work.

2. It didn't take him 18 years to realize it. It took 18 years for his internal embarrassment at his

increasingly implausible self-justifications to overwhelm his preference for the next paycheck.

3. Exactly. I think he enjoyed being called the voice of reason, it made him stand out

Once again, like almost everything, it was about the $$

4. Wallace was there for Bill O'Rielly's saying Dr. Killer, "the baby killer." and he didn't say shit.

Wallace was also there when the blond on Fox and Friends said on 1/4/21 or 1/5/21 "Lots of people still have
questions about the election."

And wasn't Wallace there for Fox calling Florida 2000 for w?

6. Nah, imho, it took him five minutes but the money and exposure looked good. /nt
