Fox the broadcast TV channel is different from Fox News the cable channel. Broadcast TV is operated by one of ~100 local affiliates and shows the Simpsons and local news. Fox News Channel is the Murdoch personal project to produce 24-hour conservative propaganda to shift the national discourse. Or at least it was this way 20 years ago, haven’t seen what the TV branding looks like nowadays.
A bit delayed, but you posted in fuck cars, about why car disincentive schemes are a cash grab. It wasn’t about Fox news.
I mean, I don’t disagree with you that if you don’t use the proceeds to help the planet or infrastructure improvements for non-car users, it is just a cash grab, but you probably needs to be aware what community you’re on, and what the consensus view is. Saying that 4chan is for right wing racist kids on green text is going to get you swimming in downvotes. It doesn’t mean anything bad about you, or your view, it just means you probably weren’t fully aware of the context and probably are a little bit sensitive about downvotes. Karma does not matter here, and disagreements and downvotes mean people care about what you say, even if it’s in a disagreeable way.
I don’t agree with your take, but I appreciate you being here. :)
My last comment got downvoted for saying I have never watched Fox news 🤷🏾.
feels like an upvote worthy comment to me.
Maybe people felt if you’re on the internet it’s almost impossible not to have seen SOME news clips from them.
I mean I hate fox and I actively avoid them. but they’ve definitely floated in front of my eyes plenty of times inadvertently.
🤷♂️
Fox channel was the Simpsons channel growing up, so I caught some of it invariably. I could believe a young person might not have seen it, though.

Thanks for the breakdown. I didn’t know that
They don’t even operate outside of North America.
I’m on the internet a lot and I’ve heard of Fox News over and over, but I’m not sure I’ve actually seen anything from it.
