I knew Faux news was well known around the U.S but I was pretty shocked to find out that 4.7 billion people worldwide had to succumb to their conservative garbage. This documentary was made 8 years ago so the number is probably higher now too. Faux news is a great example of why big corporations shouldn't be involved in television news.

So I assume you'd rather have your news from the liberal garbage put out by the other 100 channels (each of which is owned by big corporations)?

You're such a douchebag. Thanks for giving me a lame ass trick question that will make me look like a hypocrite no matter how I answer it.
Yeah I would rather have my news from the liberal garbage that super rich corporations put out there cause at least they give the middle class some show of support, its not much but its something.

I just can't seem to stomach a conservative news station that drives to work places to catch and chastise poor people getting stoned on their lunch break while they're at work.

I prefer to get my news from people I know aren't lying to me.

So no Fox News, no CNN, no ABC or CBS... No main stream news.

Reese over a dozen of the spokespeople in the documentary were ex-fox employees. How f*cking bad does a company like Faux News have to be when its ex employees (some who asked to remain anonymous) voluntarily spill their guts in a movie.
They said Faux news hardly spends any money on any of the stories they cover so they just give out cheap news(surprise surprise) and would rather bullsh*t people with fluff. Like who the f*ck didn't know that already?
