Oh, wait. They actually didn’t. When companies make mistakes, I analyze their apologies. So I headed over to Fox News to see what the network was saying about its recently settlement with Dominion Voting Systems. Fox and its on-air talent were accused of knowingly lying about the nonexistent failures and fraud in Dominion machines in…
Here are this morning’s news headlines on Fox News (in the order they appear on the site): Reckless Rhetoric: Media and Democrat attacks on Justice Kavanaugh scrutinized after assassination attempt Request Denied: Napa DA refuses to release video from Paul Pelosi’s DUI arrest ‘Feeling of Validation’: Crime victim recalls treatment he got from now-recalled liberal…
Ralph Peters, a retired army lieutenant colonel and Russia expert, left a blistering email for Fox News staff as he exited the network. His main point seems to be that the Fox News shift from conservative propaganda to nationalist propaganda is problematic. Liberals and other Fox News haters are thrilled to see a Fox News…

O’Reilly had the top-rated show on Fox News. Reporters Emily Steel and Michael S. Schmidt published a story in The New York Times that detailed five allegations of sexual…
According to The New York Times, five women have accused Bill O’Reilly of sexual harassment or similar behavior and received $13 million in settlements. Some “O’Reilly Factor” advertisers have pulled their advertising; others haven’t. But what these advertisers share is their mealy-mouthed, platitudinous statements. Here’s what they are actually thinking — and how they should permanently…
Four Americans died in Benghazi on September 11, 2012. Yesterday’s “final” 800-page report about it from the U.S. House Select Committee is biased. So are the response from House Democrats, the coverage from Fox News, the coverage from CNN, and every other article. Why? Because all stories are inherently biased. It’s the nature of the form. Here’s…
