Ravens Ring of Honor
As a journalist, who believes in objectivity and facts and all that jazz, this bolded part made me vomit blood. Every journalist I know, young and old, including those who are registered Republican, consider Fox News to be a vile joke. Their ethics are poor. Their standards are low. They contribute nothing to society but fear mongering and pot-stirring. Fox News represents everything wrong with this country. Controversy for the sake of controversy. Hyper-polarized. Lacking substance. That network is a significant part of why this country is so divided. They routinely tell one side of the story, and it's oftentimes, not even factual. Case in point: when Comey got fired, their headline said that he resigned. What a joke. Not even the WH tried to say that Comey resigned. I can't remember a single time Fox News actually made headlines for breaking news instead of being a rabble rouser. At least CNN can say they actually break real news. At least Jake Tapper, Wolf Blitzer, and Anderson Cooper actually hold both parties accountable in interviews.
Fox's viewership is huge because they pander to half of the country's ideology, and old people -- that was Roger Ailes's entire business plan. To pander. It makes for cheap ratings. The rest of the news outlets share the rest of the population. Their content is a joke. When Bill O'Reilly got fired, I laughed. When Roger Ailes died last week, I threw a party. That man was the anti-Christ.
If you're going to tell me that CNN has an agenda, you're going to have to give me examples, because as someone who actually does this for a living, I'm here to tell you authoritatively that CNN and Fox aren't even comparable.
Show me that headline!!!
