It’s becoming common knowledge that FOX (the [faux news network](https://www.mediamatters.org/cable-news/fox-news-largely-ignored-appeals-court-ruling-trump-not-immune-criminal-prosecution)) is a one-sided dedicated political operation and not a news outlet. This story deserves much more attention as we get deeper into election season. America is still being played by this Right Wing Extremist’s network and it’s going to get worse before it gets better.
Remember recognizing of the problem is the first step to working towards remedies.

But Fox’s executives are either unchastened or can’t control their hosts, who have already begun laying the groundwork to delegitimize the results of the 2024 election.
