I also think regular journalists should decry Fox as journalism and call it Fake upon introduction of any reference to it. I am preaching to the choir here and heard Keith speak of Rupert Murdock and Roger Ailes many times but Keith never gave their backgrounds.
It is important to know exactly who you are dealing with that controls the minds of the weak and vunerable and gullible.
This is what I find and you should do your own bit of research and the next time someone mentions Fox as a source
of info, you will be armed with the truth. The man in control of the programming and hatred coming from Fox news, as you well know is Roger Ailes. Roger is not only a right winger but has been employed and has been a political advisor for Republican presidents, everywhere !!!! His last big buddy that he advised, was George W Bush.
To ensure the maximum audience for this right-wing propaganda, Rupert Murdoch actually paid cable operators $10 per subscriber to carry Fox News. During the first two years the station lost $150 million. However, Murdoch's policy enabled Fox News to broadcast to over 55 countries and by August, 2003, had over 80 million subscribers throughout the United States.
Here we go. Rupert Murdock joined up to create FNC..The Fox News Channel in 1996. Roger Ailes was already teamed up with Rushie boy. Roger Ailes had an idol, and his name
was Lee Atwater. Rove of course is a want a be Atwater.
A sleazeball dirt machine that throws everything and anything at anyone who claims to not hold the right winged idealogy.
Murdock holds a knighthood in the UK. He owns so much of the media, it is sickening.
Murdock, Australian born and son of journalists of the UK as to which his Mother is referred to by the Queen as Dame
Murdock. Monarchy and money and idealogy. Definately a good mix for propoganda.
