Jesus, this is just about as blatant as you can get. I honestly can’t imagine how people can eat up such clearly dehumanizing politics and not get a bad taste in their mouth…
Here’s how you can tell if you’re the baddy: Do you support policies to spite or “own” others? Do you think, “fuck ‘em, I don’t care,” “they’re disgusting,” or “they’ve gotta be taught a lesson?”
Then you’re probably the baddy, stop it! Dehumanization, even casually, is the root of all evil.
It doesn’t necessarily mean you’re wrong, obviously — you might’ve stumbled into being right for the wrong reasons — but wow, is it a huge red flag!
I think this why it became so important for people in this camp to establish the whole grooming whatnot. To their listeners/readers, they are not dehumanizing, they are saving 😐
I can't speak to the legality, but it sure sounds like they violated the terms and agreement in place with AP repeatedly. I wonder what recourse AP has and if they could choose to disallow their content entirely on Fox? It seems like most news organizations get a majority of reporting from AP. I can only imagine the detrimental impact to Fox News if that came to pass.
They're not a "news" organization. They're corporate media, entertainment. They even lost one of their certifications as a "trusted news source" for blatantly lying and regurgitating internet memes without checking their sources.
That's great and all, but their behavior and actions are that of a news agency regardless, so wouldn't they have to face the same scrutiny as a news agency?
They shared a meme/photoshopped image of the judge that blessed off on the raid of Trump's home, supposedly hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein's partner in crime. The problem however is that the image was faked and even had a small watermark for the author of the image. Other people noticed the watermark and called them out on it, but they apparently didn't bother to check it themsevles.
I was partly incorrect, it wasn't a "certification" that they lost, but rather their rating on "NewsGuard" was downgraded as a result of their shitty coverage.
