Newsflash: You really can't trust Fox 'News', ever

Anyone who was cynical or dismissive about Fox 'News' Channel before now has suddenly learned that they weren't cynical or dismissive enough. Astounding evidence emerging this week from the defamation lawsuit brought by Dominion Voting Systems against Fox, Rupert Murdoch, his son Lachlan and others shows, in excruciating detail, how the "fair and balanced" network actively lied to its viewers about purported "fraud" in the 2020 presidential election.
In their 192-page motion for summary judgment against Fox, the Dominion attorneys cite dozens of instances of Fox hacks and 'news' executives consciously broadcasting truly outlandish falsehoods manufactured by the Tangerine Turd's theft of the election team. Nobody with any sense could possibly have believed the nonsense claims of Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell, and nobody at Fox 'News' did — as the internal messages and testimony cited by Dominion prove.
If it was ever possible to believe anything on Fox 'News', it isn't anymore. What these documents demonstrate beyond question is that from Murdoch down, the Fox apparatus prizes ratings above all else, and in their greed will readily trash the truth night after night. They know that they're lying, and they just don't care.
Actually, that's not entirely fair: The evidence shows that the Fox knaves knew they were lying and cared a little bit, because they realize how bad it all looks. But they lied anyway, over and over, because that's what hypnotizes the Turd cult.
