Yeah I mean I’m fine with trump locking up his political opponents for no reason, I just don’t want to hear him talk about it on tv. I also really don’t understand democratic voters that care more about democracy than gas prices or inflation. Were you people not paying attention when he cut our nursing home population in half?
I don’t think /u/Telorand was suggesting that. Rather I think they’re saying that Fox news is trying to appeal to both trump supporters and non-trump supporters within their base, whatever their base counts as these days.
My pops is super conservative and he finally came around to thinking trump is a grifter and criminal. Fox went a long way (or all the way and then some) towards discrediting themselves within the journalism community, but they still have a lot of boomers that are addicted to the outrage they spew.
I don’t think they are trying to appeal to their audience that is closer to center. I think they realize they can’t support open fascism and come out the other side if it fails.
Don’t kid yourself. Smartmatic is in it for a payday. They’re not interested in justice or even revenge. Might make Fox temporarily uncomfortable, but there won’t be any pressure for journalistic reform and if they have to stop short of bankrupting them to ensure maximum payout, that’s what they’ll do.

Sure. But that doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy it vicariously. I’m not expecting Fox to get bankrupted. But they rolled the dice on some real whoppers, and since money is their lifeblood, I’m happy to see them really bleed for it for once.
Behold Fox News trying to win back some of their moderate viewers and cover their assess, so they don’t get hit with another billion dollar lawsuit.
If anyone is undecided on Trump at this point, they’re not moderates.
Just because the dude wants to rule as God on earth doesn’t mean you can’t have a nuanced, neutral view on him! /s

They still have another ongoing billion dollar lawsuit from smartmatic, the other voting machine company they slandered.
Yeah, isn’t it great? Their comeuppance is long overdue.
