Should they just make some shit up like Fox does then?
What? No! Just report shit that is of actual consequence. This stuff is so boring.
It is boring but when their entire company is based on a 24 hour News model they need to push something out every few hours regardless of how slow the news day is. Fox just fills that time with stuff that excites their viewers but has no basis at all in fact.
Eh, Fox is choosy with their facts. They are capable of reporting factual things. The thing is, this is just a big old nothingburger. Write an option piece about Olaf Scholz's eye patch. Or a day in the life of someone living in Myanmar under the military regime. This world is so full of life and experience, why waste airtime on this?
Fox isn't news...they don't report, nor do they care about facts. They are entertainment. Nothing more.
