It's not just you. 3 rating agencies that evaluate things like truth in broadcasting, accurate reporting of the news, etc---(one of them a Republican one "POLITIFACT") all three rated FOX as presenting----actual---100% truth---in ALL that they air---just 7% of their broadcast day.
The other 93% varies from "some truth" to "pants on fire lies". FOX employs ZERO actual "journalist". EVERY segment of their broadcast day is a presented by a member of the Actor's Guild---ie, a "talk show host". FOX is registered as an entertainment network. So they are not bound to truth in broadcasting standards--like actual stations are that broadcast real, factual NEWS. Being a "talk show host" format FOX is free then to inject opinions, sarcasm, outright lies...........ANYTHING that gets an audience following. Because FOX can do that with a straight face......they have found that Americans are literally so stupid they will believe anything--if it's said with a straight face--and said enough times in a row. When Roger Ailes realized that he went to the GOP and marketed a deal to literally become the right wing propaganda arm of the Republican Party. They claim "fair and balanced". But have you ever seen FOX campaign for or give equal time to a Democrat for ANY reason??? FOX is solely owned and supported by the GOP. So anything you hear on FOX---everything you hear on FOX---is only what the GOP wants you to know--in their words. If you can find honesty--or "fair and balanced" in that--good luck. The rational 2/3 of America can't.
