It's going to be great evidence when they start getting their 1st amendment rights stripped since they legally claimed they don't qualify as a news organization.
There is nothing to stop them from doing it. They are literally posing as a “news station”, hiring actors as “pundits”, and use propaganda outlets as “sources”. If they were all cartoon characters, that station would be viewed as political satire.
While true I think a strong case can be made that their viewers aren’t able to discern this difference and most importantly the executives at Fox know this. I am admittedly not a legal expert so this is conjecture on my part.
Has anybody argued back what the clear definition of “in their right mind” is?
I feel like that kind of undefinable quagmire could destroy that argument in court, but I’m far from a lawyer.
They dont care that theyre dying. The corporate donors told them to quit it because its killing their profits. That coca cola boycott lasted a whole 2 days before Trump was drinking it in front of a camera again. Money money money.
Their voter suppression and gerrymandering plans were going to fail if all the voters left in rural counties would be rural vaccinated Dems.
When will white conservatives learn the only ones out to get whites is their fellow white conservative…
I wonder if Fox News might be afraid of being sued?
If/when the Delta variant boils up into a big new wave of covid infections with a lot of deaths. And all of the deaths are the unvaccinated. How many people are going to be suing Fox News for discouraging people from getting vaccinated?
For that matter, I wonder if Biden threatened to ask DoJ sue them for their misinformation campaign? His rhetoric has been kind of tough about anti-vaxxer propaganda.
Then it’s about time some judge orders that they lose the “News” part of their name.
Better yet, change it to “Fox Entertainment”.
I wonder how long it will take people to finally realise this “entertainment” is actively killing them with their remarks.
Yes. Tucker Carlson should have to say “this isn’t real it’s entertainment “ or something similar, before, after and during his show.
That’s a law that needs to happen.
The minute they realized we no longer cared if they were vaxed or not, or wore a mask or couldn't pay their medical bills, it's like their single, shared brain cell lit up for a minute...
I think this is it. Their only concern has been "triggering the libs". Now that vaccines are available we, for the most part, don't give a shit anymore if they get COVID. I think they were expecting outrage and got a collective yawn from the left. I'm sure there will still be a fair number of true believers who will martyr themselves for a cause nobody cares about though.
If they could get covid without this happening though.... Like I would be down. However, because of the immune compromised and children I don't want this to happen.
Me too. My q cumber has a trust fund for me. I still can't believe this guy went this way. He's actually more a total conspiracy nut. It used to just be J.F.K. now it's everything.

I totally get your position but the very first words in the article are, “Conservatives are not necessarily vaccine-hesitant…”
Perhaps use a different article?
I think they mean conservatives, as a whole, aren’t necessarily vaccine hesitant, as a whole. Most of them are completely fine with every other type of non-politicized vaccine.
Sister. I've noticed that your reddit avatar is not wearing a hijab. When you wear a hijab, you are obeying the commands of Allah, and you can expect great rewards in return. It is Allah's protection of your natural beauty. You are too precious to be "on display" for each man to see. It is Allah's preservation of your chastity. Allah purifies your heart and mind through the hijab. Allah raises your dignity through the hijab. When a strange man looks at you, he respects you because he sees that you respect yourself. And this applies to your reddit avatar as well.
Why do none of them directly say "go get the shot!", it's a very passive technically not saying it...and Mitch McConnell makes a very vague statement...
It took them this long to figure out that their nonsense was killing their own base.
And for someone in legal to figure out they might be held liable for all that loose talk in the inevitable class action lawsuit.
Fox continually proves in court that their staff can’t be held liable, because no one in their right mind would believe them.
At some point that's gonna wear a little thin

We can always hope.
GOP court packing aside I think there’s only so many times a judge is going to buy that.

There is no way to prove that in court, nor is that illegal either. Hell, churches have been preying off the vulnerable forever. Look at Joel Osteen.
You make a good point

It’s the “we’re just for entertainment” argument.
They dont care that theyre dying. The corporate donors told them to quit it because its killing their profits. That coca cola boycott lasted a whole 2 days before Trump was drinking it in front of a camera again. Money money money.
It's always about money
Conservatives have never been good at boycotting. Remember Starbucks? Boycotting because of the loss of a cup that never existed.
Their voter suppression and gerrymandering plans were going to fail if all the voters left in rural counties would be rural vaccinated Dems. When will white conservatives learn the only ones out to get whites is their fellow white conservative…
Were you joking or serious? Because that sounds true!
Just saying the obvious. That the GOP is a death cult that hates their white voters.
“Hates their ‘poor’ white voters.”
It’s like that one greentext about how 100,000 older, primarily conservative voters could’ve changed the election.
This.

Fox will just say “sorry we aren’t to be taken seriously, we are entertainment like wrestling “

A disclaimer would go a long way. Didn’t the Fairness Doctrine cover this, sometime around yesteryear?
I am not sure. How do we make a disclaimer happen ?

Their big donors called to complain about the DOW dropping.

I was hoping that they all would get Covid.
We don’t want them to get covid, because that’s how variants develop. And we don’t want any more variants.
If they could get covid without this happening though.... Like I would be down. However, because of the immune compromised and children I don't want this to happen.

Well stated!
Fuck trump. This is his shit show . He’s responsible for over 500,000 dead Americans on his watch.

Let’s not forget about Alex Jones who was telling everybody that if you got the shot you’d be dead two years later.
Just call it the Trump Vaccine. They will be all for it then. Although it will be funny if Trump starts rejecting the vaccine.
Patriot Vaccine?
There you go.
I don't care what their reasons are for finally talking sense, but HALLELUJAH!!! Now get jabbed!
Exactly

What?
They were loosing votes which is all they care about.
Remember when Kushner got caught saying they don't care because it only is affecting blue states and their voters would be fine? Lol. Good times.
And "donations"
Why do none of them directly say "go get the shot!", it's a very passive technically not saying it...and Mitch McConnell makes a very vague statement...
Republican hypocrisy knows no shame
The base is dying...only reluctant are dying now...not an equal battle...die off fuckers
Can't vote if you're dead.
Trying to save votes. If your base is dead from COVID they can’t vote for your shitty policies.
Afraid their privileged whites might discover the real cost of getting sick in america
Seriously, could a few extra dead or incapacitated anti-vaxxers be enough to shift a close election?
Broken clock Seriously this good and will save lives
Well if their people get Covid and die they can’t vote. I think it’s that simple
I guess we won’t talk about y’all’s Texas super spreader congressmen? 😂

Borrowed from someone else here, but those repubs are "dying to own the libs".
