John,
For a while now, mainstream media outlets have pushed the idea that there’s a so-called “rift” between Fox News and Donald Trump.
We’ve already told you why that narrative is totally bogus. But here’s more evidence in case you're not convinced:
Tonight, Fox News is counter-programming the final GOP debate before the Iowa Caucus with an exclusive town hall starring (you guessed it!) Donald J. Trump.
Skipping the debates may be a shrewd political move. After all, Trump’s lead over his Republican rivals has only grown in recent months.
But shrewd politics aren't always good for democracy. By refusing to debate, Trump is ignoring yet another important democratic norm. And troublingly, he’s telegraphing exactly the dictator President he’s promising to be on the campaign trail.
John, by giving Donald Trump an infomercial just five days before the Iowa Caucus, Fox News is putting all its cards on the table. They will do and say anything to ensure ratings stay high and Trump becomes President again.
Our mission of providing high-quality local news to communities vulnerable to Fox News’ lies and propaganda is informed by our belief that good information is the best antidote to bad information.
As the 2024 cycle picks up, we’re looking to continue to expand into more key battleground states to serve as a xxxxxx against Fox News and other right-wing misinformation. But we can only continue to grow with your support.
Please chip in what you can today to power Democracy's Newsroom.
