Fox News announced that it is hiring Donald Trump’s chief liar and propagandist today. There are lots of complaints but this one from a Fox News staffer says it best:
“It’s truly disgusting they fired hard-working journalists who did care about facts and news reporting only to turn around and hire a mini-Goebbels whose incessant lies from the White House helped incite an insurrection on our democracy that got five people killed, including a police officer,” a Fox News insider raged to The Daily Beast. “Post-Trump Fox is quickly becoming a very scary place and quite dangerous for our democracy. It’s not even conservative news anymore. They’ve plunged into an alternate reality where extremist propaganda is the only course on the menu.”
That’s not digby or Atrios talking. That’s a Fox news staffer.
And he or she is right. That’s exactly what it’s becoming because they are terrified they’ve lost their audience to the OAN amateur hour. Pathetic.
