And yet...many times I have heard people say that the 'only source of the truth' is FOX. Sheesh.

In general, Fox News’ beat reporters produce low-biased fact-based news; however, the reporting on their entertainment-based news programming frequently promotes propaganda and false claims that render Fox News Questionable.
Failed Fact Checks
• Says John Bolton “fundamentally was a man of the left.” – PANTS ON FIRE
• “NASA scientists fudged the numbers to make 1998 the hottest year to overstate the extent of global warming.” – PANTS ON FIRE
• Obamacare is “one big fat VA system.” – PANTS ON FIRE
• Marie Yovanovitch is “dishonest” when she claimed she never personally responded to an email from a Democratic staffer. – FALSE
• “Biden’s climate requirements” will “cut 90% of red meat from diet” to a “max 4 lbs per year” and “one burger per month.” – PANTS ON FIRE
• “Black Lives Matter says it stands with Hamas terrorists in Israeli conflict.” – FALSE
• Clinton campaign paid to ‘infiltrate’ Trump Tower, White House servers to link Trump to Russia: Durham. – FALSE
• Natural immunity protects better than vaccination; “the mortality risk of an un-boosted person under age 30 was zero”; cloth face masks, school closures had zero benefits for children and some harm – MOSTLY FALSE
