Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

    Fox has always had its own spin. But has there been a time when its coverage was as far removed from that of other mainstream outlets as now?

        In the 2000s, it felt like Fox was the propaganda organ of the Bush administration. Now, it feels more like the Trump White House is the propaganda organ of the Fox administration.

        Don't recall any stories on MSNBC/CNN debating the legality of droning US civilians or the illegality of a Syrian invasion

        60 Minutes / CBS just aired an entire segment on Yemen discussing the famine, blockade, and disease. Did not mention how the US is facilitating the war and helping to create the crisis.

        Key difference. In 2000s, Fox carried water for Bush administration talking points. Today, Fox News uses a TV-obsessed President to craft narratives, and vice versa.

        I can't think of one no. Some of the Iraq stuff was very disconnected from reality but they are wayyyyy out in space now.
