    Downvoting.

    We can surely find a better source than Fox News, which has admitted in court that it knowingly lies to its viewers.

      What news station hasn’t lied before? Fox was being honest when the Hunter Biden laptop story came out while the others flat out lied about it

        What news station hasn’t lied before?

        There’s a gigantic difference between

        A) sometimes accidentally saying something untrue due to sloppy work and then issuing a retraction when you find out or someone finds out for you

        B) sometimes accidentally or deliberately saying something untrue due to editorial bias and then issuing a retraction

        C) Having a deliberate strategy of lying on purpose to further an agenda while constantly accusing everyone else of the same

        Almost all of the news outlets in the world do A and B, rarely in most cases.

        Faux News have been doing C all day every day since 1996.

          And don’t forget the biggest difference of all, saying in court that they aren’t News but a “News entertainment network”
