Some of their content (Fox Nation) requires a subscription.

I’m a liberal who checks Fox and the NY Post daily. I will always love the Post for its headlines!

Today, there is only one headline on Fox relating to tariffs: an article saying China will impose retaliatory tariffs on US goods. Absolutely nothing about the stock market tanking because of the Trump announcement. How do they get away with calling themselves a news organization?

Ah, Hollywood

Ah DC…
*See cover of any media or news outlet today

Sometimes in Hollywood they’ll randomly shot a director. The stakes in DC are higher but it’s still reckless fun!

This week, or going back

Just where Fox chooses not to cover news stories at all. (Keeping viewers in a bubble)

I’m having a conversation with a family member …

In every conversation with that family member from now until the end of time, all you have to say is that Fox News, for the first time ever, took the stock market ticker off the corner of their screen on the day after Trump declared his trade war.

I used to work in a federal building until I was let go recently.

The Tuesday after inauguration, every single TV in the hallway had Fox News blaring

The monitors used to be turned off prior to that late January date

I took photos. Send texts . I was so unusual I had to

Every time I've flipped to Fox News this morning they've been talking to professional golfers at Trump Doral. Clearly covering the issues that matter.

I am a Democrat/independent. I am a huge advocate of checking multiple sources for news. I watch CNN, NBC, CBS, ABC and Fox News. I read the Washington Post, New York Times, the New York Post and twitter.

I have found that every single news organization has a bias, will cover or not cover, downplay, or play up stories, depending on their bias.

I have posted about this before, but Fox News had been reporting about Joe Biden’s mental decline. I did not believe them because my trusted news NBC and CNN were not reporting on this. Imagine my surprise and yet non-surprise when the debate came along.

If there is an issue of particular interest to me, I will check multiple, if not all of the sources. I think this day and age it’s irresponsible to rely on only one new source for information.

I agree completely with this approach and it's what we have to do given the difficulty of finding truly nonbiased reporting. That said, no mention of the stock market on Fox today feels like an egregious violation of news reporting.

The day after the election in Wisconsin, where a Dem won, I checked foxnews.com and there was nothing on the main page about the story. I had to search for it using their search function and it took me to the story but it was not on the main page. Interestingly, as I scrolled down the very long main page looking for the story, I spotted a human interest story I was familiar with about an event that had happened over two weeks ago. The human interest story (basically click bait) was on the main page, but not the story about the election in Wisconsin, which Musk had said would “decide the fate of Western civilization.”

OP, the markets are in free fall right now and it's the first news everywhere. except on Fox.

see https://www.foxnews.com/, as of now, nowhere in sight news about the market crash, but prominently news of the fencer who refused to fight against a trans fencer, an aid to a democrat who allegedly tried to prevent a question from a Fox journalist, the rescued astronauts "saved" by Musk saying how terribly bad is the Boeing shuttle. only mention of tariffs is not that China retaliated, but that Trump commented on China's retaliation and says everything is good

Yup, sounds familiar. This is their formula:

1) a single prominent political story at top of page, always told from a MAGA perspective
2) a handful of additional political stories that also have a clear MAGA slant
3) the rest of the stories are all human interest/click bait-type stories, usually about crime

If someone reads foxnews.com daily and just focuses on the headlines, they get the sense that: everything related to the MAGA administration is going great, Dems are crazy, and there is a ton of crime out there in the world.

By contrast, another Murdoch product, the Wall Street Journal, has a more balanced approach. The news is centrist while the opinion pieces skew conservative. No trashy clickbait stories like on Fox or the NYP.

I liked watching Fox news when Trump got relected because they highlighted liberal whining and tears
