Re: “We are proud of our 2020 election coverage ..."

To be fair, Fox *News* did a good job covering the election, including making the correct call regarding Arizona. The problem is that the channel called "Fox News" has a news arm and an "entertainment" or "opinion" arm. The entertainment arm covers topics from the news, but does so in a way to entertain the right wing audience. The company has been very clear about this, but a lot of their fans either pretend they don't know about it, or truly believe Tucker Carlson is a newsperson.

Why do both, you ask? Goebbels knew why. 24/7 propaganda isn't as effective a propaganda mixed with straight news and entertainment. That's what will limit the Fox wannabees from the same level of success.
