Fox Dominion lawsuit
« on: February 28, 2023, 10:14:53 AM »
We now are seeing the behind the scenes at Fox. None of their on air personalities believe what they were saying, mocked the idiots they were putting on air, and tried to get Fox reporters that fact checked them fired. I know the hard core fox viewers will never know what they admitted under oath and in private text messages. But its hard to see how anyone can look at what they are saying to each other in private and trust a single word coming out of their mouths.

I doubt that the majority of fox viewers are paying attention to this let alone will hold those lying to them, let alone openly laughing at thier gullibility, accountable

The question is will they try and settle out of court and would Dominion accept an out of court settlement.

Personally I'd like to see Dominion take Fox down. Then again If Fox goes down no telling which head of the Hydra will take its place.... Maybe better the devil you know than the devil you don't

How could Fox viewers not be paying close attention, considering the coverage Fox News has been giving it.  ;D

So no comment from the Trumpist on the site about how Fox has admitted that its largest names lied about their being election fraud?  No omments on how in places like AZ where there have been audit after audit, even ones by those Trump leaning, that have found no fraud. In AZ where the Republican AG at the time spent 10,000+ hours investigating all of the claims of fraud and found basically  nothing? All of the time where Trump and his cronies have said they would hand over the evidence and not done so.

It is looking worse and worse for Fox.

They had the tiger by the tail and profits, not truth, were their leading  goal.

Murdoch said that their is Red, Blue and Green and he is a businessman only interested in Green. What can you say about such a... view point. (I was going to say man but I'm not sure he qualifies)

I'm not sure that is true either. Fox is a propaganda arm of the Republican party. Just take a look at Tucker's deal to get exclusive access to all the security cameras on the capital. So while "green" might be a big motivator, "red" is high up the list in Fox's priorities. The two are intertwined at this point but its not like Murdoch has interests in media that isn't right wing.

I think what Murdoch discovered is that thier is more money made by playing to the right then their is playing to the left or being balanced right AND left. Unlike the Democrats the Republican tend to be loyal ot the tribe regardless of what the tribe does so I think the data proves Murdoch right. That might change with more and further right 'news' media competing for a piece of the pie, which is what Tucker is worried about. But Murdoc was first in. 

My point was that Murdoc doesn't care about politics except for how to make money off of it and such people in my opinion qualify for the label as 'evil'.

Well the judge has tossed out motions from both sides for summary judgement.

Looks like it is going to trial.

You state the most important point, that they are intertwined. But what's the reason? Murdoch saw a niche for red swill, where he could make a lot of green, and he went all in. It worked. So now, his business plan is how to most effectively spread red swill. Which will, de facto, make them an arm of the Republican Party.

None of that detracts from the fact that if, in the beginning, Murdoch thought he could make money off of libs he'd be trying to convince people abortion should be legal one year after birth.
