Fox News: Entertainment, Not Journalism

April 28, 2025

A reliable news source is more important than ever, especially during our current political climate. It’s paramount to understand that what you may be viewing is in fact not accurate. It’s important to form our world view on factual information and not opinion based news sources. That’s why I come to you today to discuss the harm that Fox News has done to our country and the threat that our Democracy is now under due to our current administration.

Fox News legally argued in court that their programming is NOT News, but rather ENTERTAINMENT AND OPINION. In a 2020 defamation case, their own lawyers claimed that NO REASONABLE VIEWER WOULD TAKE CARLSON’S STATEMENT AS FACTS.

Fox News is simply PROPAGANDA echoing talking points that align with RUSSIAN STATE NARRATIVES, especially around the war in Ukraine. Studies and reports from credible watchdogs have linked the network’s content to DISINFORMATION CAMPAIGNS.

In order for Democracy to stand it’s imperative that you view trustworthy news. When entertainment is disguised as journalism, it MISLEADS THE PUBLIC and POLARIZES OUR COMMUNITIES. Real news ensures fact-checking, transparent corrections, and separations of opinion and reporting.

Please visit Ad Fontes Media online and look at their media bias chart. Fox News is far-right and often times when only viewing one news source you are not getting the full picture. It’s best to select news sources that are in the center and factual, such as ABC, BBC, or Rueters to name a few. 

Our co-equal branches of government have ceased to exist for several months now and there’s too many people not aware especially if only viewing Fox News. The Republican ran majority of both the House and the Senate have allowed President Trump and Elon Musk to run our country unlawfully, cutting many of the programs our fellow neighbors rely on under the guise of “waste, fraud, and abuse.” Congress created these programs and its lawfully supposed to be Congress that dismantles them. Thankfully the Supreme Court and federal judges have held on tight, but for how much longer while so many American’s sit idly by unaware of what’s actually happening.

It’s time now for us to put our differences aside and stand up for the America we all love before the billionaires steal our money and give it to their rich friends. We the people are stronger than the people in power!
