Fox News is misinformation.
![]()
David Øybo @correlations_trilogySo this is likely going to be a very #unpopularopinion , but @cbouzy where is #foxnews on this list. Trust me, I DO NOT “ENJOY” their “REPORTING” but by excluding them upfront, aren’t you setting up @Spoutible to be another ‘echochamber’ / ‘bubble’ ???08:08 AM - Nov 14, 2023![Fox News missing from Spoutible News Sources]()

Isn’t that like asking where Pravda is on this list?

FWIW- yesterday’s March for Israel was only covered live by Fox. I’m not a fan of Fox but it was the only place I could find the event on the mall live streamed in full.

I think it was part of their defense in the Dominion case. To paraphrase: they said their reporting is fiction meant to entertain. So let’s just call it Fox Fiction. That is one of many reasons why it does not deserve to be on the list.

Propaganda machines ARE echo chambers. Including Fox News would mean catering to those toxic Echo Chambers that don't provide ANY journalistic qualifications with a certain number of credible sources. A news source needs to be credible to be considered a news source. Credibility is based on accuracy

It has been scientifically demonstrated as far back as 2012 that viewers of Fox news are literally worse-informed than people who consume ZERO news from any source
So, it's very reasonable to exclude that source

What I congratulate you on is that you have separated out the ‘news’ channel and made it an ‘opt-in’ … I honestly prefer getting news as close as possible to the ‘fact level’ and then ‘compare’ so I will just stay here for the ‘spouts’ for now ;-) - thanks so much for your hard work with @Spoutible

You wrote this, with a straight face, because you want FOX News on Spoutible?
I just can't...

As the creator of this great platform it is of course totally up to you how to select things. For me personally I do on occasion try to ‘break out’ of my own ‘bubble’ to see what kind of “reporting” millions of Americans who I share this country with rely on…. (just for my own understanding….).

If you’d like actual news from a separate viewpoint, then The Wall Street Journal would qualify. Faux Noise? Nope.

well, I suppose we could have a whole separate tab for lies, misinformation, conspiracy theories and Russian propaganda. "fauxnews" wold fit right into that one.

Agreed. We’re still missing Teen Vogue, though. Underrated source of legit journalism.

One of the better articles explaining why Trumpian antics are so dangerous was released by Esquire, of all places.
But, Esquire reaches a whole following that might not pay any attention at all to the big "serious" news sites.
Same with some of the articles coming from places like Ms or Teen Vogue.

Fox News Entertainment, it's fanfiction for the worst people you know!

Agreed. Let's stop talking about Fox like it's legitimate "news".

In all seriousness, what right-wing news sources aren't?

This is different because there are court documents in which they admitted they were just making it up. It’s objectively an admitted source of disinformation.

This is how bad actors manipulate people and it's something liberals fall for far too easily. Excluding propaganda doesn't create an "echo chamber." It creates a space where facts and reality are prioritized.

I so agree with you & liked & then "echoed" this spout, & it was the first time I thought, oh, but it's NOT an echo chamber here and yet I need to click this word echo, to share your good point w/others. 😂 Had a bit of verbal whiplash there for a minute, but still, sharing this as you are spot on!

To those replying bbbbbut! Yes, they are all slanted in the vast majority of their coverage, and we do not have plain news/facts media. However, Fox is just straight-up “alternative facts”. Just because they put “News” in their name does not in the slightest make them actual news.

How about we exclude all outlets that had to pay $787 million because they admitted to lying?

Wasn't their defense in the voting machine lawsuit that they were an entertainment show, not news?

Faux News is the very definition of disinformation.

Also didn't Fox admit it wasn't "news"? 🤔 At best; Fox is right wing conspiracy entertainment.

It's literally an entertainment channel. Not news at all.

I'd rather not see any Cable News on said list.
