Classic whataboutism
Well, "Kind off" but again if Democratic Party state's isn't bad mess since after 2016 election. Than I wouldn't hate them.
And second. I hate equally to Republicans (Trump, duh) as well.
Don't get me wrong, I never watch MSNBC anymore. My father was a career journalist - I have standards for journalistic integrity. But I don't think MSNBC and Fox are even close to comparable.
"Eh, it's a paycheck"
Eventually replaced with
"Eh, the fuck is this?"
Fox News is literally Faux News. It's biased headlines, omitted facts, propaganda, and utter lies. It's not dependable as a source, it's bankrupt of integrity and morals, and it's not a viable source of information as a whole. It's shit.
He's written an op-ed for the Washington Post accusing Fox of propaganda, fake news, challenging the rule of law and all the other stuff they do

Man he seems like a passionate, patriotic person who simply wants the best for America.
No wonder he had to leave Fox.
One idea I've seen floated around is part of why people quitting propaganda always claim it's "what its become" is because that's an easier way of deprogramming cultists. Nobody likes admitting they were always a sucker, and appealing to the good old days is what conservatism is all about.
Either Corporate or Oblivious by Federal government.
Prove it: PBS.
Ok
To be fair, the Koch Bros. also donate to PBS...
Explain, Back in 2014. Some Billionare try buy PBS.

Fox affiliates are dependent on their immediate communities and serve their community, not a national cable-watching audience. It doesn't guarantee that they won't be shit, but they are likely to be decent if not full-on good stations broadcasting decent if not good news programs because their goals and their profit structures are set up to reward serving the community. They're basically just local TV stations with the Fox name attached, and that's a sort of artifact of the way the regional TV system built itself up.
On the complete opposite end of the spectrum is the propaganda mothership, set up to serve and be rewarded by corporate oligarchs who now possess the most powerful policy advisor the President listens to, Fox & Friends. It's his real daily briefing.
It's not my burden to explain your claims or evidence. It's your burden to prove that PBS is
as well as "pure propaganda".
Additionally, your evidence is 'someone tried to buy it'. Not 'successfully bought it' - which means your own evidence harms your own assertion as it shows that, since the deal didn't go through, they're at the very least 'not Corporate with a capital C'.
