You are drifting, Salty.
What we are looking at here is FOX news and their beloved hosts saying one thing on air, and not believing it privately. Can we say FOX has "credibility" as a news organization ?
Food for thought below. After reading it, I suppose, as you say, you could let us know...
On January 5, 2021, Murdoch emailed Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott: "It's been suggested our prime time three should independently or together say something like 'the election is over, and Joe Biden won.'"
He said that such a statement "would go a long way to stop the Trump myth that the election was stolen."
Scott then forwarded Murdoch's suggestion to Meade Cooper, the primetime programming SVP. He wrote: "I told Rupert that privately they are all there — we need to be careful about using the shows and pissing off the viewers but they know how to navigate."
Rupert Murdoch suggested Fox News hosts Carlson, Hannity and Ingraham go on air and say Joe Biden had won 2020 election, court filing says
Hannity's support for Trump, on one level, was understandable. The Fox News audience were fervent supporters of Trump.
When the network declared on November 5 that Biden won the crucial swing state of Arizona, its viewers rebelled. "Those fuckers are destroying our credibility. It enrages me,"
Tucker Carlson wrote in a text message to his producer Alex Pfeiffer. Carlson worried Trump would "destroy" the network.
"What [Trump]'s good at is destroying things," he told Pfeiffer. "He's the undisputed world champion of that. He could easily destroy us if we play it wrong."
