If they get away with this (and Trump wins in 2024) they'll have established a precedent where they can legally spread any lie as long as they use Trump to launder it. Truly chilling.
Chilling.
I think I also heard that Fox also said they were just reporting what those people (the various liars) were saying. But their on air employees spouted the same lies.

They are still in denial. Many of them already defected to Newsmax and OANN because they thought FOX News was "too liberal" for them and are probably now validating their beliefs based on the Dominion filings where FOX execs mocked Trump, Guiliani and others behind closed doors and talked about how the "eLEcTiON wUz StOLeN" crap was bogus right from the start.
Even so, it means Fox suffers because of poor ratings.
Yet FOX ratings are much better than those of Newsmax and OAN. You'd think a smart person would want to go in the opposite direction of Newsmax or OAN rather than trying to follow them down the gutter of conspiracy theories and propaganda.
FOX would be better off ditching the extremism and focusing on better things.
As the evidence said, they’re afraid of their audience. Just like so many Republicans are afraid of their voters. It’s "there go the people. I must follow them, for I am their leader."
FOX News helped create the far right wing monster that is their audience, by feeding them a steady diet of hype, hate and propaganda to radicalize them. And now they are afraid of the Frankenstein monster they created.
Just unreal.
