Good, it’s time that the general press treats Fox News the same way it treats Breitbart, as a conservative outlet that doesn’t care about doing factually honest news. There are a few reporters there that do, maybe even a lot, but they basically get swept under by the leadership and people like Carlson. Until Fox can manage to report facts honestly, it’s time to give them the boot as any kind of respectable news source.

“… and have been recognized in the industry for our advancement in this area”

"… most notably with our multimedia reporter program. We are proud of our inclusive team and their achievements in journalism.”

Seriously? I’m old enough to remember Roger Ailes, Bill O’Reilly, Charles Payne, Eric Bolling, among others. This doesn’t pass the laugh test.

'It is unfortunate that the country’s main news organizations have chosen to include FauxNews as an (alleged) “news network”:
