I know there are bigger things, but it's insane that FOX isn't under intense scrutiny for being so

imbedded with the GOP and trump in particular, that many of their on air employees were in contact with him during the terrorist attack on January 6th.

were charged with sedition and Faux was up to their ears in it. The second sentence sounds like some kind of threat.

The 1st Am. protects their right to lie and propagandize.
