Jonah Goldberg has always been such a smarmy rightwing prick. He fit right in at a place like the Fox "news" Sewer. For him to quit, really is telling about how fascist and racist the network has become. He's a rotten person, and they are even worse.

tRump's departure the network would return to its pre-tRump levels of dishonesty and divisiveness and also become less of a GOP tool. These guys' level of conservative journalistic "integrity."

As we know, to put it mildly, that didn't happen. According to one thing I read, Fox's early call of AZ for Biden triggered a major blow-up and putsch by Tucker and other Fox stars, who immediately doubled down on their virulent loyalty to tRump and all lies tRump, and swept most of Fox off into their fascistic traitorland. Or something like that.

I'd like to suggest that there is a difference between conservative professional liars who see a wealth-serving but still functional autocracy as a good thing and those whose main complaint about a tRump dictatorship, virtually certainly, is that he might be too weak to hold it and their era of glorious power would have a tragic end.
