Elections Fox News Internal Document Bashes Pro-Trump Fox Regulars

[58miles]

Fox News’ own research team has warned colleagues not to trust some of the network’s top commentators’ claims about Ukraine.

An internal Fox News research briefing book obtained by The Daily Beast openly questions Fox News contributor John Solomon’s credibility, accusing him of playing an “indispensable role” in a Ukrainian “disinformation campaign.”
The document also accuses frequent Fox News guest Rudy Giuliani of amplifying disinformation, as part of an effort to oust former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch, and blasts Fox News guests Victoria Toensing and Joe diGenova—both ardent Trump boosters—for “spreading disinformation.”

The 162-page document, entitled “Ukraine, Disinformation, & the Trump Administration,” was created by Fox News senior political affairs specialist Bryan S. Murphy, who produces research from what is known as the network’s Brain Room—a newsroom division of researchers who provide information, data, and topic guides for the network’s programming.

The research brief is especially critical of Solomon, a former opinion columnist at The Hill whose opinion pieces about Ukraine made unsubstantiated claims about its government interfering in the 2016 U.S. presidential election. Solomon’s pieces for The Hill fueled Giuliani’s efforts to dig up dirt in Ukraine, which eventually helped lead to President Donald Trump’s impeachment. Trump has also frequently cited Solomon’s questionable reporting on Twitter in his own defense

So the researchers at Trump's own PR firm Fox News knows that Solomon, Giuliani, Victoria Toensing and Joe diGenova all ardent Trump defenders about Ukraine are a bunch of lying two bit hucksters??? What's the rest of Trumptard nation excuse for not knowing?

Ah, so a brief that essentially holds about as much value as any opinion piece.

Most of Fox News is republican establishment, but it's the MAGA conservatives who bring in the most viewers. Tucker Carlson is great most of the time, and I'm glad the President listens to him. He will call Trump out when it comes to MAGA issues such as immigration, trade, and foreign interference. I'll take news from those slandered in these documents over the mainstream fake news propagandist who have been caught in lie after lie. Americans recognize, and ignore, fake news and propaganda a lot easier these days, and when they do, they stop listening. TRUMP 2020!

Never understood why Dems and their voters get so pissed off about Fox News? The Left can have every other channel on air yet they can't stand the fact Reps have one single channel, they really get their knickers in a twist with this, don't they?
Same here in Australia. All free to air tv channels are way to the Left, none at all to the Right. On cable there is one that is slightly to the Right, SkyNews Australia, yet the Left go mental about it even existing and we have their supporters regularly calling for it to be closed down. They must see how OTT they are yet they don't care, they are just so intolerant. Wankers!
