    Ah, I see. Like I’m referring to my old bicycle as “my Harley” even though I know it isn’t one, it does not legally fulfill any of the criteria to legally count as a motorcycle, and nobody in their right mind would take me seriously when I say that, but it’s my little in-joke that I’m calling it that on the web. Got it.

      Cool story. Haven’t changed my mind. Lots of people disagree with you, they are called Fox News, and regardless of what you think, I’ll keep posting. If you don’t like, you can leave, block me, and/or block this community! Thanks, comrade!

        Oh, you misunderstand, I have no interest in you or me leaving or not posting anymore. I’m just pointing out that agreeing or disagreeing with me has absolutely no effect on the fact that Fox News does not, in objectively discernible reality, meet the bar for being counted as a news outlet. Fox News and I agree on that, but the agreeing is not what makes it true. And you’re gonna be really disappointed when you find out that Jeff Bezos’ company may be called Amazon, but it isn’t actually a river in South America.

          And I’m just pointing out that agreeing or disagreeing with me has absolutely no effect on the fact that Fox News is deemed a news outlet by other news outlets and most of the public.

          So be as mad as you want. And feel free to update the Wikipedia page, which lists it as a news organization. Thanks, comrade!

            What makes you think I’m mad at anyone? You have every right to be wrong and even contradict Fox News themselves. I’m just giving you enough information know whether your opinion stands up to scrutiny.

              Friend, I don’t care. I’ll keep using fox news if they have an article i think is interesting. But thanks for your opinion. We just have different opinions.

                I don’t really have an opinion on that issue. I’m just the messenger here to put into perspective why Fox News publish what they publish and that it is not accurately factually informing people (at least according to Fox News). And I really have no problem with you liking Fox. I frequent The Onion too for entertainment purposes (fun fact: not an actual onion). We’re very much alike in that regard.

                  Cool. But the other news orgs call Fox News and Wikipedia calls them a news org. So bring it up with them. I’ll keep using them. Thank you!
