That story is well worth the time it takes to read it. I'm completely terrified by the Trump/FOX propaganda machine. What can be done? I never watch FOX, but clearly, plenty of people do...too many people.

Something we can do—boycott its advertisers, make Fox toxic from an economic standpoint.

Advertisers will have to be hit hard and consistently. Complaints, boycotts, and Twitterstorm level. The question is, can Americans put forth this sustainable effort, our memories are so fleeting in this distraction-age. 1/x

Even if Dems take back WH in 2020, it would be hard to prosecute Fox because of 1A and we must protect free press as a pillar of our democracy. Will have to come as a squeeze on advertisers and blackballing Fox exec's. /end

Fox is not an example of free press . They are not the voice of the people. That’s what journalism is. They are Trumps voice. News media is their to hold those in power accountable, not to jump in the jacuzzi with them at marlago

@Meditationsndz you misread my tweet. I didn't claim Fox News is free press. 280 characters r 2 short for explain. If gov't goes after any media/press for what they cover (notwithstanding provable libel violations) and is successful, all free press are at greater risk 1/x -
under future administrations (and god forbid any more autocratic fascist ones) to being silenced. /end

Trump promised publicly he wouldn't interfere in DOJ's handling of the TimeWarner AT&T deal - but in Oval Office he ordered Nat.'l Economic Council head Gary Cohn to get DOJ to block it, which would hurt CNN & help Fox. Soon after, DOJ filed suit to block it, and lost in court.

Thank God for you! We need to see more and much tougher coverage of Murdoch in the next few months

Thank you, Jodi. Fox News is State TV: “Hannity was treated in Texas like a member of the Administration because he virtually is one. The same can be said of Fox’s chairman, Rupert Murdoch.” That truly sucks. https://twitter.com/ifindkarma/status/1101349288368435201?s=21 …https://twitter.com/chunkled/status/1093380729361350657?s=21 …

Rupert Murdoch was seen entering the office of
@senatemajldr the week of Nov 2018 elections when the halls of Congress were deserted. Wonder what that was all about? Why would any member of the media be meeting with any member of Congress but particularly those two? -
And fox hasn’t tweeted since that meeting(or maybe a day or two before). If Fox has a gag order from Mueller probe shouldn’t the American people be told!?
-
It’s interesting that they haven’t tweeted in so long. I guess it’s good they’re not spreading lies, but it’s weird, for sure.

This was the start of America's decline from quality and responsibility by allowing a propaganda machine to call itself
#foxnews. The Fairness Doctrine should be reinstated.#MondayMotivation#mondaythoughts -
It is ironic that this was done by a foreigner to us. Murdoch is not even an American.
