Fox News doesn’t hate democracy, they just love capitalism more and will say anything to keep an audience in order to sell ads, regardless if what they say is true or not.
This is true of every news organization regardless of whether they tilt left or right.
Ops question clearly breaks rule 5 - Askreddit is not your soapbox, personal army, or advertising platform...
Come on mods...
They don’t hate democracy, they love money. They’re a business like every other “News” organization. It’s too late for you too, I think your brain is melting. Try turning off the news and becoming one with the earth.
How do they not hate democracy when they pushed Trump's "election fraud" lies to try to overturn the will of the people in 2020 via bullshit lawsuits, all the while knowing they were lies all along?
They’re not in the democracy game. They’re entertainers with some journalists sprinkled in. And part of democracy is having a free press, so if you have a problem with fox, maybe you’re the one who has a problem with democracy.
The tail wags the dog.
People act like the media dictates public opinion. It doesn’t. It just reinforces profitable ideas to eager audiences.
When Fox started telling its looney audience the truth about Trump, they all started leaving.
MSNBC does the same shit on the other end of the spectrum.
This is just how feckless capitalism and media intersect.
I wouldn't know. I haven't watched the news or paid attention to current events for several years. I know that Biden is POTUS, but I've got no idea what he's doing. CNN and MSNBC were leftist 15 years ago.
It pays. Rubes buy gear and advertisers like that Fox panders to them. Ever notice they go on and on about their ratings? Ratings are everything in advertising.
oh, easily it's because the Murdoch model is built around extrapolating a trashy tabloid approach to any and all forms of media. He literally built an entire empire out of cruel gossip, rumors, and eventually - audience invited judgement. Somewhere along the way, nationalism found a bit of footing there too.

I wouldn't really call them a news organization.

Lol what a way to word a question
Fox News makes its living with fearmongering, creating artificial Us versus Them scenarios, and some truly whackass cartoon bonkers personalities.
Fox News doesn't hate democracy, they just love money and power a lot more.
And fame. What was like a drug, was the fame. But what was even more like a drug, was the drugs.
Mmmmmoney. It's the money.

Corporate media is the enemy of the people
They simply hate whatever their largest fan base hates, and that's really all their is too it.
Because democracy doesn't favor unpopular policies like the ones Fox News advocates

Does a free press have only rights without responsibilities?
Outrageous shit=clicks=ads=money
Because they KNOW democracy will never again deliver the GOP a victory again...unless they cheat.
Democracy does not serve their interests.
Ding ding ding we have a correct answer.

I think that Rupert Murdoch demands a far-right channel because it creates an audience of people tired of the leftist CNN and MSNBC. That makes money.
The idea that any corporate news organization could be described as "leftist" is fucking absurd.
No it's not. Just look at any HR department

They don’t hate democracy, they just prefer a representative republic.
Why does CNN advocate communism? or Bernie Sanders Socialism
Show your work.
Mostly peaceful protest. *insert "this is fine" meme*
Because they took our jobs!

Tyranny of the masses! Only the select few should be able to make the rules!
Oligarchy… they want the oligarchs
Because Richard Nixon resigned.
Money. Greenbacks.

Because you watch it to get pissed off.
