I’m listening to Fox 5 run a long segment praising Glenn Youngkin, saying mask mandates aren’t important, that he didn’t handle COVID poorly, and impugning schools and unions.
And Fox5 just showed a clip from Fox “News”. Fox 5 is one of the local TV stations directly owned by the Murdochs. Of course they want to keep the DC TV station — they are political actors who want to use Fox5 to persuade people to back pro-billionaire policies. It’s just garbage. Fox 5, like the Fox cable channels, are Republican media owned by a Republican billionaire, designed to lie to us to get votes for billionaires. No one should watch Fox 5. Drop it. |
| And wjla channel 7 is owned by Sinclair Broadcasting which is a right wing company that has bought local stations and makes them deliver their content and a right wing slant on local news. |
| Who still watches network television?! |
| Gross |
| Let me guess, OP - you’re the same OP of the moronic thread about swing music in Florida rest stops. JFC. |

Doesn’t seem inherently fawning to me. I can imagine the exact same headline for a smear job. Funny how that works in our current political environment. |

Yeah the segment was entirely fawning- saw it.
Youngkin is a wild eyed radical, who appointed extreme MAGA Republicans to top roles in his admin. The anti-abortion extremism is just one part of it. The institutional Republican Party billionaires that the Murdochs ally with, they desperately want to hide Republican extremism. That’s why they run these fawning segments. Their goal is to hide the extremism and surprise America with what they’re doing. |
| Not to be pedantic but the station is owned and operated by a subsidiary of Fox Corp. which is a publicly traded company. |
I think it's clear who the wild-eyed radical is ^^^. |
| If you prefer a one-party country and one-party media, perhaps you'd prefer to live in Cuba. Or North Korea. One party states |
I love how liberals arrogantly tell others what to do, what to watch, what to think. No, OP. If you're so triggered, I suggest you stay on a strict diet of MSNBC and CNN. Quit ordering others around and mind your own business. |
There is absolutely nothing "right wing" on WJLA. Are you on drugs? https://wjla.com/ |
| Lachlan Murdoch isn't right wing. I doubt Rupert is either. He just saw it as a way to make money. |
| Now do Sinclair Broadcasting, which is even worse than Fox. |
