But a Fox viewer would.



Reasonable people do not expect CNN to report the news in an unbiased way as well.


Except the case is not about bias, but actual facts.

I assume your response means that you agree with me then.

I'll watch Chris Wallace on Fox. He's conservative but still has integrity. Bias is flip of CNN. But I won't watch anything on the opinion side. Waste of time and I'm an old duffer. Don't need what watching them would do to my blood pressure.

I'll happily watch John Oliver.

Opinion, yes. But factually solid and damn funny.

Whereas Sam B and Trevor Noah's tend to be a little stronger in opinion.

If you can find it, "Planet America" from Australia is fantastic too. Again opinion with solid facts.

Recently, Ghislaine Maxwell was indicted on several charges related to her work as a sex trafficker together with Jeffrey Epstein.

Because the new american aristocracy is so spectacularly insular, there exist a number of pictures showing her, with or without Epstein, at any number of parties and functions together with pretty much anyone you care to name, including, of course, the Trumpet in chief.

Now, here's where the curious part comes in. Look at this photo:

We see Maxwell, we see Epstein, and Melania Trump. The image does seem cropped even on a casual viewing; it is clearly a staged photo where the photographer did set up properly before taking the shot.

Now, I wonder who was cropped out? (Actually I don't, it would be fucking obvious)

Image

Hmm.

I wonder what happened here. So obviously, Fox wanted to have a picture showing Epstein and Maxwell. Why, I wonder, did they choose that one? Why did they choose to crop out the Trumpet and leave Melania in there?

Hey, smr, what's your opinion on Fox clearly running a smear campaign against Melania here?

a very interesting question... I had focused on them cutting out the liar-in-chief and not really concentrated on who they had left in.
