How much damage has Fox News caused this country ? Starting with Fox News announcing George Bush winning the election over Al Gore. Fox News giving the Tea Party their unlimited time and money to turn an AstroTurf movement into what actually put some very scary and radical people into elected offices. Fox News has convinced middle class workers to vote against their own interests. Fox News has convinced people that health care does not need to be improved. Fox News has convinced people that our President was not born in this country, and should not be President. Fox News decided who the GOP will run in the primaries. Fox News has convinced millions of Americans that global warming isn't a real problem, and that we have not done anything to contribute to it. Fox News has really done a job on this country. My 80 year old father in law might be like your dad, or father in law. He is a victim of Fox News. He is positive President Obama was born in another Country, Global Warming is a lie, Taxing the wealthy will hurt jobs, and all Democrats are a threat to our way of life. Fox News really did a job on him.
One of the problems with the Republican election is the lack of support from the Latino voter. They have about 2% support from this group. The GOP propaganda machine is about to roll out their new baby. This is to target Latino voters.
MundoFox, a new Spanish-language free-to-air television network catering to the U.S. Hispanic market.
The network is scheduled to launch during the autumn season of 2012 in Hispanic homes nationwide and will offer a range of programming that will be analogous to the English FOX Network.
The company wants to provide an alternative for the 50+ million Latino viewers.
I think we should fear this. Fox News has used false information, lies, and incorrect stats for the past 10 plus years to achieve what ever is on their agenda, and they are very good at it. They are about to start working on the Hispanic / Latino voters.
I hope they fail, and are rejected by Latino viewers. What if they turn that 2% into
12% ? Is that enough to change a D to an R ?
Fox News has caused so much damage to our country, and they plan on expanding the hate, and the lies, and the false information, and the incorrect stats.
Too bad we don't have something like a Federal Communications Commission. If we did they could do something like put a limit on how many channels one person or company could operate. Or revoke a license to broadcast "News" if they are caught intentionally spreading false information or lies . That would have been really helpful these past 10 years or so.
The FCC currently has no jurisdiction over cable or satellite. So get ready, Fox News is about to launch their new propaganda wing Mundo Fox Just in time for the 2012 election.
