Fox News Reported Election Lies for Ratings (American Issues Take One)
Fox's Host Texts in Court Docs Prove it. The hosts for this show are Tim Apicella and Jay Fidell. The guests are Cynthia Lee Sinclair and Jeff Portnoy.

\nWe know many of Fox's prime time line-up of hosts--Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham, Lou Dobbs, Jeanine Pirro--and they all have one thing in common. They all knew Trump's cries of a stolen 2020 election was false, and court records of their multiple texts prove that. In a $1.6B case against Fox News, a trove of documents filed by Dominion attorneys not only shine a light on these hosts' texts, but also communications from Rupert Murdoch and Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott. The messages were clear: there was a deep concern that Fox viewers were heading for the doors to Newsmax because Fox was not playing into Trump's 'Big Lie' claims. Ratings and profits won out, and the false stolen election lies Fox News reported on is now journalistic, or the total lack of it, history. The panel explores what Fox did and impacts to future news reporting.
