HipKat Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 As more and more emails and text exchanges between Fox News on-air talent, producers and management become public, one thing seems clear: Fox News knows Trump supporters are idiots who believe shit that is not real. We know this because they chose not to tell Trump supporters the truth because they knew Trump supporters could not handle the truth. This is a classic example of what normal people call " an idiot". An idiot needs to be lied to because they're not mentally strong enough, or intelligent enough, to understand or accept the truth. Fox News knows this. In the article I'm about to post, their CEO, or chief scumbag as I like to call her, was very worried that simply fact-checking Trump would be so detrimental to the mental health of Trump supporters, she discouraged the practice. She actually preferred that Fox News, which is supposed to be a news source, not fact-check Donald Trump because she understood his supporters were too stupid to handle the truth. I'm just wondering how you feel about that? I know you guys like to mock the left and, in particular, trans people, because they're too emotionally unstable to handle the truth as you lecture them that "facts don't care about your feelings" and claim they can't accept reality. Well, an entire news organization was lying to you because they believe you're too emotional and too weak to handle the truth. Perhaps, instead of shit-talking other people, you might take a close look in the mirror and ask why do news organizations feel they have to lie to you. That's what I would be asking if I found out people were lying to me because my sorry ass couldn't handle the truth. Fox News CEO said correspondent’s fact-check of Trump’s election lies was ‘bad for business,’ new emails show Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott sounded the alarm inside the company about the financial fallout that the right-wing network would suffer if it continued fact-checking then-President Donald Trump’s lies after the 2020 election, according to messages that became public Wednesday. In one instance, Scott emailed Meade Cooper, executive vice president of prime time programming, and laced into correspondent Eric Shawn for fact-checking Trump. “This has to stop now,” Scott said in a December 2, 2020, message. “This is bad for business and there is a lack of understanding what is happening in these shows,” Scott added. “The audience is furious and we are just feeding them material. Bad for business.” The email to Cooper was revealed as part of Dominion Voting Systems’ $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against Fox News. Like several documents made public Wednesday, the email had previously been redacted in earlier court filings. The new emails were included in a presentation that Dominion showed at a hearing last week in Wilmington, Delaware. The voting technology company publicly released the full slideshow Wednesday, per a court order.Fox News, which denies any wrongdoing, has accused Dominion of cherry-picking emails to present a self-serving narrative about what the right-wing network did after the 2020 election. “These documents once again demonstrate Dominion’s continued reliance on cherry-picked quotes without context to generate headlines in order to distract from the facts of this case,” a Fox spokesperson said in a statement. “The foundational right to a free press is at stake and we will continue to fiercely advocate for the First Amendment in protecting the role of news organizations to cover the news.” In another email written by Scott, zinging host Dana Perino for her “dismissive tone” in November 2020 after the presidential contest, the Fox News chief disclosed that the company had “lost 25k subs from FOX NATION,” its streaming service. Dominion Voting Systems In earlier court filings, the data about the Fox Nation subscriptions had been redacted. The messages underscore the panic that gripped Fox News in the wake of the 2020 election when its viewers rebelled against the channel for accurately calling the election for President Joe Biden. Other newly released emails showed network producers discussing how putting Trump lawyers Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell on the air inflated ratings. At the time, Powell, Giuliani and host Lou Dobbs were promoting debunked conspiracy theories that Dominion had rigged the 2020 election by flipping millions of votes. fox dominion email Dominion Voting Systems “Any day with Rudy and Sidney is guaranteed gold!” the Dobbs producer wrote. In another email, another Dobbs producer wrote, “to keep this alive, we really need Rudy or Sidney.” The full email chains are not publicly available. 1 Quote “There he goes.
