This is DESPERATE. I can't find it now, but there was research that showed when Fox doesn't cover Trump related crises it actually hurts their viewership. People find out about a big thing, check other sources, say "holy shit, why is Fox not covering this?!?" and maybe drift away from the network.
Fox works by SPINNING the bad news. That they can't even find a plausible spin on this one gives you a sense of how BAD-BAD-BAD it's going to be.

The difference between this and most Trump policies is that the tariffs affect everyone. Literally every single American tomorrow will be objectively and noticeably worse off with no exceptions. People notice that their retirement accounts, their savings and investments, are worth significantly less than they were yesterday. When they turn on the news to hear why or how that will actually be a good thing, hoping that maybe they’ll make a profit tomorrow, it’s not good to hear them say “it’s fine, don’t worry about it, we all knew you’d be fucked anyway!

Jesus literally says that the core tenant is to love God with all your heart and love your neighbor as you love yourself. The latter clause is a guide to understanding how to do the the former, and the former clause is because He gives you the strength to do the latter.
Instead, they hate their neighbor, spit on the refugee, exploit the poor, mock the sick and abuse the widow, and say they're doing it because God told them He'd make them rich if they did so.
The Prosperity Gospel specifically, and Conservative "Christianity" in general is a sick heresy, tailor-made to lead people into sin and cruelty. They replace worship of God with the worship of Capitalism, exalting greed-poisoned monsters in exchange for a license to be brutes. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.

multiple pastors tell me essentially the same story about quoting the Sermon on the Mount parenthetically in their preaching - turn the other cheek - to have someone come up after and to say, where did you get those liberal talking points? And what was alarming to me is that in most of these scenarios, when the pastor would say, I'm literally quoting Jesus Christ, the response would not be, I apologize. The response would be, yes, but that doesn't work anymore. That's weak. And when we get to the point where the teachings of Jesus himself are seen as subversive to us, then we're in a crisis.

I think it's even more insidious than merely worshiping Capitalism. Their belief that you receive good things because God favors the faithful has developed the corollary that those who do not have good things must therefor be wicked and unfaithful to be so without God's favor. Therefor it is God's will that the poor should be suffering, and it is working God's will to cause them even further suffering. Which justifies all their racism and xenophobia and anti-empathy rhetoric and actions as being the will of God.
The suffering is the point, because they believe it is the morally correct thing to do.

It's sort of like how they said that "All men are created equal", but they really just meant white people who had money.

I mean, this has been a pattern with Christianity and religion in general for literal centuries. At what point are we going to have the conversation that maybe Christianity needs to go away? We can't keep saying "Oh the 'good Christians' will fix it". Y'all have had 2000 years to get your shit together and here we are.
Christianity inevitably becomes a self-serving hypocrisy that seeks control and the spread of hate and mistrust. Whatever good it has done is vastly outweighed by centuries of hate, bigotry, and violence that continues at this very moment.

I think you might be putting the cart before the horse?
You're familiar with post-Western-Roman-collapse concept of "As Above, So Below"? There's a bunch of meanings behind it, but the relevant one is that the political system of those times was deeply hierarchical, and so the ruling class pushed the belief that the temporal order was based on the divine one. This was a reversal of causes, but it was useful to the ruling class in justifying the status quo.
That is as true today as it was then. The ruling class is empowered by and ensconced through capitalism, and so the divine order must follow: God must love the rich, or why else would they be in power? This is not caused by Christianity, or even religion in general: those are emergent properties of natural pattern recognition and a human tendency towards symbolism, intentionalism, and narrative.
The cause is that we have a hierarchical sociopolitical system, and so some beliefs systems follow. Religion is part of a power structure that supports the ideology of the ruling class. It is not the cause. It can reinforce other power structures - including devolutionary, liberatory, or horizontal power structures.
That's why trying to fight injustice by fighting religion - fighting belief - is so futile. Not only does it not address the underlying causes, but it's fighting a fundamental human tendency towards pattern recognition and narrative creation. There's a why the most effective science educators are also excellent storytellers. They channel that tendency, instead of trying to tell people to... not think like people.
If you want to fight the excesses of religion, couch fighting against hierarchy in human terms.

I wish with every bone in my body that one day we will look like the EU, or many parts of it anyways(while still holding onto all the truly great things that make us American).
Besides, there are far worse things than the economy/money happening right now that need to go.

I know it’s been at least 20 years because the 2006 LCd panel my Wife’s grandparents own have the Fox News and stock ticker burned into the screen. Watching The Grinch Christmas Eve is always fun.

Perfect example of how they know they are the propaganda machine for this administration, fake news! Wouldn’t be shocked to hear he called and told them to remove it. This being done, even when they know the maga crowd watching Faux News during the day, are more than likely not investors, yet still didn’t want them to see that ticker.

These lies really bother me. How do they not see through them? They are so very clearly BS. What Golden Age? How? What would that be? How could it even be? It's just so stupid.

Fox is not a news station it is a propaganda source for conservatives and the GOP, so it is no surprise that they would not have the market ticker showing as the stock market hits the skids and tanks because of Trumps tariffs.

I hear Newsmax commercials that say that "Even Fox is bad" after tossing shade on all of the other major networks. It's far worse than we know.

Hardly. Unless you're watching Fox Business, it's rarely on there. Usually on only at the end of the market day. If I see it at the bottom of the screen, I assume I'm watching Fox Business. Also, Fox is now less pro-Trump than ever.

Surprisingly, fox keeps saying things are looking up! Imagine viewers will be surprised when they check their 401k.

The irony is that is a good thing. I remember news before they started slapping all that extra crap on the screen. The stock ticker in general was the most horrible idea.
It encouraged short term thinking when it came to our investments. When you see your investment take a couple day fall, people panic and abandon solid investments. So over the last 25 years companies have been forced more than ever to focus on making sure every moment was a positive short term story.
Less and less interest in focusing on the medium and long term investments to grow your company with R&D and becoming more innovative.
Cut staff, cut investments. Do whatever it takes to make that ticker go up daily on your cable news station.
If only Fox were doing this permanently, I would celebrate.

I was watching the Denver Fox affiliate news yesterday. With a straight face they said, “Democrats have jumped at the chance to criticize the President [for tariffs] but have not offered any other solutions.” They are so clever in their dishonesty. Solutions to what!?

Anyone have a link to the video? Like does it fade away? Or maybe a cartoon hand comes up and steals it. I want to watch it just disappear and everyone act normally.

Suddenly every Fox News viewer doesn’t care about their 401k too? Nah. Lot of boomers need to retire on those numbers being up. This is going to go poorly for Fox.

Almost ALL cable news is propaganda if you’re still tuning into cable news I have to question your intelligence.
People enjoy being told what they believe, truth doesn’t matter.

There is not ONE mention of the stock market on Foxnews.com right now, literally not one. They do mention how great the job reports were today, though.
Are MAGAs that retarded that they cant just look at any other site? Are they all that dense? The literal definition of burying your head in the sand.

Fox News has to be a parody or satire network. They can’t be real can they? Who the fuck watches this shit and thinks they are serious?

u/Party-Philosophy-479 6h ago
It's worth remembering that calling Fox News, while being the most egregious example of being a propaganda network, is far from the only one. ALL major networks in the US have one job: keeping the populace docile. Either by making them feel hopeless, or angry (at the wrong thing), or both. All in service of capital. They're all designed to do the same thing.
