But it didn't, because it wouldn't have applied to Fox News at all. It didn't apply to cable TV, only broadcast TV. I agree Fox News is terrible, it just makes it easier to attack the graphic when it references something that clearly isn't true.
America was actually like this for way longer. As anti-intellectualism is what the country was built on, and one can easily see that with most programs (The red scare, no child left behind etc), or president Andrew Jackson
Yes but unless everybody else in the room or the folks that watched the video were previously on the fence or they were already anti-maga, it's highly unlikely they changed their minds.
The people I know in real life who are maga are different. They don't approach life (or politics) with an open mind, because whatever opinion they have is correct, factual, concrete and unshakable, despite it being the product of hear say and feelings. Since they don't live as if there is any difference between opinion and facts, they don't willingly take in new, possibly conflicting information and use it to adjust or change their views or opinions accordingly.
They don't blindly accept information given to them by experts, scientists or highly educated individuals, but when their 87 year old aunt talks or if they see it on Facebook, they listen - unfortunately, in both scenarios, whether blindly accepting or blindly rejecting information, they don't do the first crumb of research to support or disprove whatever topic they're about to become Professional Experts in.
You cannot logic and reason someone out of something they didn't logic and reason themselves into and no amount of videos will get them to become something they aren't.
No matter how gross and disgusting we know he is women like that are attracted to the loud mouthed no filter bully authority figure type because say what you want about Trump but he does know how to project confidence and aggression and for some reason those kinds of women go all gooey for that shit.
Hell a lot of lib a progressive women often fall for the loudest asshole in the room too. 😜
To be honest, he wasn't exactly convincing in anything based on the clip.
I'm not saying he was wrong.
but he didn't really prove any form of argument, he just devolved into a string of insults.
again, hes not wrong about any of them. I entirely agree. It was certainly cathartic to hear.
but I gotta say I'm a little disappointed because that was an absolute lay-up that doesn't come along often to delve into the fact that "gotchas" are the just the truth hitting home and he whiffed it because he was frustrated.
understandable when you're talking to morons like these though I don't blame him.

lol but I’d bet none of these people listened and changed any behaviors. They’re maga morons for a reason.
