Fox News isn't even news at this point, I'm pretty sure they even made that exact argument in court in some of their many many lawsuits.
The fact that you chose that as the example is laughable, makes you seem crazy.
That was entirely the reason I used it and I'm surprised you can't digest what I'm saying.
It's not news yet it's the most popular "news" network on television. Despite poling showing people that watch it are less informed than people that watch no news at all, nothing has been done specifically because it's serving it's intended role: misinforming the gullible and setting a lower bar for MSNBC and CNN to be seen as real news instead of telling you how to feel about what you're told about.
Imagine putting up a rotten disgusting left out poorly gutted fish and using it as evidence that no fish has ever been safe to eat.
