About this episode

The episode critiques Fox News for promoting a delusional narrative about Trump and the political landscape.

Last week when Fox viewers turned on their favorite propaganda machine, they entered a magical world of delusion where Trump was still incredibly popular, the war in Iran was going smoothly and things looked rosy for Republicans in the midterm elections. The network downplayed the massive ‘No Kings’ protests that were organized all over the country reducing the demonstrations to a bunch of old people who were paid agitators wasting their time. Polls had no meaning on Fox. Even the network’s own Fox News poll showed Trump’s approval ratings plummeting on every aspect of his presidency. It even showed he is starting to lose support among Republicans. The skyrocketing cost gasoline, diesel and fertilizer caused by the war in Iran weren’t even mentioned. The network chose to focus on radical Democrats and the partial government shutdown. For this newsletter I’m just going to breakdown the entire mess into a series of delusions. Buckle up and enter the land of Republican make believe. This is a public episode.
