Biden's approval rating today is 38%

Trump's approval rating when he left office was 38%

The November 2020 email from an anguished Fox News news producer to colleagues sent up a flare amid a fusillade of false claims.

The producer warned: Fox cannot let host Jeanine Pirro back on the air. She is pulling conspiracy theories from dark corners of the Web to justify then-President Donald Trump's lies that the election had been stolen from him. The existence of the email, confirmed by two people with direct knowledge of it, is first publicly disclosed by NPR in this story. Fox News declined comment.

Pirro was far from alone in broadcasting such false claims. In the weeks that followed Election Day 2020, other prominent Fox stars, commentators and their guests heavily promoted them...

This is why Steve Bannon's "just pump as much shit down the pipe" philosophy works. At some point, people get more sick of hearing about the investigations into all of the illegal, immoral, repulsive behavior than they do in the actual behavior.

Our government would crawl to a complete halt if it investigated all of the abuses of power performed by Trump. The volume of it is simply too much to handle.

Trump did tell one truth. He ran our country just like he runs all of his businesses.

I have no issue with investigations if they are needed. It's the wild goose chase ones that I grow tired of.

I don't know the solution to the problem. It's hard to know which anonymous sources to believe. Or which allegations made in books are true.

Why didn't the parties involved bring this to the attention of the authorities? Why is it only coming out in a book a handful of years later?

The fact top Fox executives gave these sorts of warnings only bolsters the plaintiff's arguments.

What I'm curious about is, how top leadership seemed to be against the crazies, yet the Fox News crazy train kept chugging right along just the same

or perhaps in some bigger picture, it makes me curious about whether big corporations even need things like CEOs.
