This article completely captures the fraught moment we're in. I would just add that the Supreme Court is arguably the one of the most dangerous institutions (along with certain media outlets) Trump created. Together they share the dubious honor of destroying our democracy.
Wonderful article. Fox, along with SCOTUS and trump, may just be the biggest threat to this country and the world since WW11. I would assume most Fox viewers are in the south and Midwest. How do we flood those areas with information about Fox misinformation? Or, lack of information? The ads should be developing now, but are they?
I completely agree with your risk assessment. The problem we face is not just Fox News but Newsmax, OAN, and about 1600 radio stations owned by the right wing. With the exception of Joyce Vance, Thom Hartmann, the bulwark, and a few others, the left is nearly empty-handed compared to the right when it comes to media control. That’s why I write these articles for free- they are now published in several venues. It’s not enough but it’s a start.
agreed. Ideally, we would legislate Fairness in reporting and return of something like the fairness doctrine, which managed to require accurate reporting without offending the first amendment for more than 50 years.

I can't even wrap my head around what SCOTUS said during yesterday's argument on immunity. Portugal, here we come!
