    Oh, they have certainly accelerated the crazy train. The feedback loop between viewers and hosts was put on full display when the Dominion case emails were released.

    My only point is that this isn’t some anomaly; this is the original vision playing out to its logical end.

      It’s the Talk Radio problem all over again. The more extreme the voice, the more it clamors for attendance, leading to such a doom spiral.

      I am certain there are many “Shep Smith” like people at Fox back in the day who are pretty horrified at what they’ve become, and I also agree they were complicit in Fox walking down this path.
