    They don't trust them for good reason. Look at the lies they told about
    the number of protesters at the No Kings debacles.

    https://www.forbes.com/sites/nicholasreimann/2023/03/29/fox-news-ceo-called-trump-fact-checking-bad-for-business-email-shows/

    Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott blasted the network’s
    fact-checking of then President Donald Trump’s false
    election fraud claims as “bad for business” in an email
    shortly after the 2020 presidential election, according
    to multiple reports, citing a court presentation from
    Dominion Voting Systems, which has portrayed Fox News
    as a network in turmoil after the election as it moves
    forward with its $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit.

    Carlson – No our job is not to provide news coverage. Not even
    close. Our job is to explain what things mean

    https://www.cnn.com/2023/08/26/business/fox-news-gold-star-family-apology/index.html

    Fox News apologized Saturday to a Gold Star family for
    publishing a false story last month claiming that the
    family had to pay $60,000 to ship the remains of their
    fallen relative back from Afghanistan because the
    Pentagon refused to pay.

    “The now unpublished story has been addressed internally
    and we sincerely apologize to the Gee family,” a Fox News
    spokesperson said in a statement...

    The apology came after a Military.com report this week
    drew attention to the issue and indicated that the
    right-wing outlet’s top executives had repeatedly been
    notified by senior members of the Marine Corps that it
    was pushing a false story.



    https://www.cnn.com/2023/07/12/media/former-fox-executives-rupert-murdoch-reliable-sources/index.html

    In a joint statement published Wednesday, the executives --
    Preston Padden, Ken Solomon, and Bill Reyner -- expressed
    profound regret for their roles helping Murdoch build Fox
    in its early days. Padden was Fox's chief Washington
    lobbyist; Solomon was the vice president of network
    distribution; and Reyner was the lead outside counsel.

    "We never envisioned, and would not knowingly have enabled,
    the disinformation machine that, in our opinion, Fox has
    become," they added.
