Fox News is Fake News

Even that I am a old white male, Fox News depressives me to the point I get upset. Everything boils down to money when a news story is talked about. If a news story is about a high school teacher teaching about George Washington owning slaves. Fox News would spin it that George Washington gave slaves gainful employment and the left would place a tax on owning slaves making his wealth over regulated by the government. Talking about every story being about being taxed or government waste with a free rider only produces fake news.

So, you do not think CNN and MSNBC are not biased and motivated by profits?

This may come as a surprise to you, but Fox News is part of Mainstream Media and is part of the multimedia echo chamber. Finding fake news from them is as common as finding fake news from any other Mainstream Media outlet.

That being said, I don't necessarily characterize a news report that is created from a particular point of view to be "fake news". It may be biased news...but it's not necessarily fake.

But tell me...since I don't watch any news programs...does Fox News cite unnamed sources for their news stories? If they do, then I consider them just as bad as those other networks who are doing nothing more than rumor mongering. In my opinion, that isn't as bad as reporting fake news, but it's worse that biased reporting.

So you are attacking the MSM/press as "fake news" in agreement with President Trump. How interesting.

CNN is to middle of the road. With MSNBC, they question there own news. The best news source, is BBC World News.

Kind of interesting that you have to make up an example instead of citing an actual broadcast.

When you talk about money, and you want to inform about money in your point of view -- that is fake news.
