Court filings rife with internal communications exposed Fox News’ post-election misinformation push. Newsmax could be next
@Odusei Good. Sue all these bastards into oblivion
Good, fuck newsmax.
Pass the popcorn, this one is going to be fantastic.
Masquerading as “news” while blatantly spewing out whatever toxic and dangerous, insurrectionary bullshit you make up day by day to a community - knowing full well it is bullshit - should and MUST have serious, or at the very least expensive, consequences.
To think where we could be if Reagan hadn’t of torn down The Fairness Doctrine.

@Ganondorf the fairness doctrine was only for broadcast media, the FCC was able to regulate it because it used public bandwidth. It wouldn’t have applied here. We’d need different regulation.
That’s a good point. I haven’t ever watched NewsMax so I’m unclear how it’s broadcast, but now that you’ve brought it up I assume it’s streamable and therefore immune from the TFD.
Newsmax staffers are understandably nervous that their texts, emails, and other correspondence may, too, become part of the public record.
I can’t help but think they might have more than one reason to be nervous.
Only one way to find out
Fuck ‘em.
Faster justice, please.
I don’t think either NewsMax nor OANN will survive these lawsuits, they don’t have FOX money.

I wish there were consequences for intentionally lying to the public in the guise of a news show, regardless of whether it damages corporate profits. I wonder if we’re going to get to read Newsmax’s internal communications and directly learn what morally bankrupt liars they are, or if they learned their lesson from Fox News.
How much do you want to bet that, unlike Fox, these idiots actually believe the things they say?
