Phil1111 1,149 #1 December 23, 2017 Fox News website beefs up and ‘goes a little Breitbart’ As competition surges on the right, Fox’s website increasingly follows the path of its prime-time hosts. A sleeping media giant may be about to wake up: Fox News’ website — known for its high traffic, but not strong identity —is staffing up and sharpening its voice in hopes of equaling the impact of its increasingly pro-Trump television partner. A website that had been more closely identified with Shepard Smith’s brand of reporting has now moved closer to the mold of Sean Hannity, Tucker Carlson and Laura Ingraham, according to former staff members. “The approach has gone much more the way the prime-time programming works,” said one, “where it feels more agenda or opinion driven, or combative.”... Yochai Benkler, a Harvard Law School professor, was part of the group with MIT that studied how readers consumed news online during the 2016 election, and said that Fox News has an incentive to move to the right. Analyzing linking and sharing patterns of 1.25 million stories, his group found that Fox News and Breitbart formed the heart of “a relatively insular and self-referential” online news ecosystem. In other words, people reading, sharing and linking to Fox News and Breitbart were, for the most part interacting only with other right-wing news sites, and not mainstream outlets like The New York Times, Washington Post, or even Wall Street Journal. That means, Benkler said, that conservatives are Fox News’ only potential audience. https://www.politico.com/story/2017/12/23/fox-news-website-breitbart-312326 Welcome to 2018 America.

Phil1111 1,149 #2 February 18, 2018 The Fox News Channel: Full Time Enablers Of Donald Trump https://www.redstate.com/jaycaruso/2016/03/16/fox-news-channel-donald-trump-enablers/ RedState is an American conservative political blog. It functions as an opinion based discussion forum and group blog for a variety of conservative activists. Annually, it organizes RedState gatherings for grassroots political activism which feature many prominent public figures in conservative politics.[2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RedState Fox News is a Threat to Democracy https://ipolitics.ca/article/fox-news-threat-democracy/ Robert Mueller And Company Should Be Locked Up, Fox News Host Jeanine Pirro Says http://www.newsweek.com/robert-mueller-and-company-should-be-locked-fox-news-host-jeanine-pirro-says-743722 A Fox News host has suggested the FBI and Department of Justice should undergo a “cleansing” that would see special counsel Robert Mueller and a number of other staffers “locked up.” Jeanine Pirro said there was corruption in the department and bureau that necessitated investigation, blaming Mueller, former FBI Director James Comey and other figures for what she described as “the stench coming out of the Justice Department and the FBI.” So Fox has instituted a new boogeyman to replace HRC as the target of hatred and as someone who should be "locked up". Soon trump, Fox, and supporters here will be chanting "lock them up". Referring to Mueller and other senior FBI officials. All as the investigation gets closer and closer to trump. As trump becomes more and more erratic. As the noose of indictments gets closer and closer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkyDekker 1,465 #7 February 22, 2018 Speaking of CNN, Rubio got absolutely destroyed by teenagers on CNN's townhall last night. I have to give him credit for being there, but he might have lost his next election on national tv last night. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
