Long-term pro-democracy strategy: get on Fox News as much as possible

[steve2470]

I have no problem with "real conservatives" having their own TV network. As long as it's honest, fair, presents ALL the facts and rigorously separates the robust news department from their opinion people. I think it's fair to say that Fox does NOT do that.

Fox News is a real threat to democracy. 70% of Republicans do not view the election as fair, and most of that fault lies with Fox.

Fox News, sadly, is here to stay, at least for the foreseeable future. Therefore, we pro-democracy people and Democrats need to get our faces on Fox News as much as humanly possible. Granted, they may refuse. We can publicize that fact vigorously. We need to invade their propaganda bubble and destroy their anti-democratic message.

McConnell pushed me over the edge today. See: https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/trump-republicans-election-challenges/2020/11/09/49e2c238-22c4-11eb-952e-0c475972cfc0_story.html

The GOP and Fox News (and the rest of the RW propaganda network including most of Facebook) is now anti-democratic.

2. Buttigieg is making inroads. How about Biden or Kamala phoning fox and friends regularly!!!!!

3. "Freedom of Speech" does not mean "Freedom of Reach"

If more than 30% of your content is lies, no access to air waves, FB, or whatever platform that serves as a giant megaphone.

"Slippery slope" or whatever be damned. I'm sick of our airwaves and communication networks being abused to spread utter lies.

Let them yell at each other in venues and by means they can self-fund. No public resource use + private companies held to account.

4. I am encountering more and more Trumpists that no longer trust Fox.

The said it was owned by Disney (which they don’t like) and it’s too liberal. Trump his dissed them as well, recently. I guess they are all going to One America Network, or even more obscure media sources we’re not really even aware of.

I think a lot of them are QAnon, which is becoming mainstream for them.
