Fox hosts and guests have spent recent weeks warning Taylor Swift not to get involved in politics, but the network has a history of enlisting D-list celebrities to do just that. Whether discussing inflation with Pauly D or asking Larry the Cable Guy for his election predictions, Fox News and Fox Business have been eager to let any vaguely famous person weigh in on politics — so long as they support a right-wing agenda.
As a democracy, everyone should be involved in politics whether that person is poor or rich or famous. They’re just further showing how they only want the “right people” to have political power.
Ironically, the main exception is news networks. Fox, not Taylor Swift, should stay out of politics. Just stick to the facts, please. Editorials should be relegated to small dedicated segments with multiple visual cues to make it clear that the current bit is an opinion.
