I have not done a scientific study but I think this is probably correct. They have not reported extensively on the Russian attacks on our electoral process and whether anyone on the Trump campaign assisted them? They have reported on it as mostly a trivial, non-important story.
For example, they do not report on any financial stories about Trump or his affiliations with different Russian oligarchs. They saw nothing newsworthy with Trump meeting with the Russians in the White House with only the Russian media. They seldom mention the meeting at Trump Tower between Paul Manafort, Don Jr, and Jared Kushner with several Russians in an attempt to reportedly "get dirt" on Hillary Clinton. They do not report on Wilbur Ross, the Cyprus Bank, or the money-laundering thru that bank. Just as they seldom report on the Deutsche Bank being mostly the sole lender for Trump projects around the world.
If you were looking to FOX News to get the facts about what might have happened with the Russians and the Trump campaign during the last election, you would be a non-informed citizen. The chances are that most FOX viewers have never heard about the stories mentioned above.
And they call themselves a "news" station.

Fox isn't, and has never been a ligitimate news source. It was when they began to be treated as one that all this crazy shit got real.

(111,094 posts)When they began, they never put news people in the field. They chose to sit behind the cameras and editorialize about how they were "fair and balanced" because they would give a different view than those news people in the mainstream.

(685 posts)and foxbusiness not sure if it's the same as fox news did report on Wilbur Ross and Cyprus banks
I didn't read them as I'm sure they are slanted but I did want to check to see if they reported on it
for your correction.
but unnecessary I was just googling to see if they had reported. it's called too much time on ones hands today Like I said I didn't read what Fox said just wanted to see if they did report on it. I'm sure it is slanted

(111,094 posts)but not as if it were as important as Ben Ghazi or Hillary's emails.... They have not taken this story seriously.
