Fox News—which unironically once used the slogan "Fair and Balanced" to describe their network—is rarely accused of sharing accurate, unvarnished truth.
Their own defense in a lawsuit over former host Tucker Carlson's on-air lies was to claim any reasonable person would know Carlson lied all the time—throwing a bit of shade at their own audience that didn't seem to draw that conclusion.
So now that MAGA Republican President Donald Trump is tanking the strong economy he was handed by Democratic President Joe Biden less than three months after taking office, Fox News is, of course, covering the most important issue facing the United States.
Comedy Central's The Daily Show highlighted Fox's stellar coverage in a post on X—where most Fox viewers lurk.
A screenshot from Fox News is captioned:
"CNN: Stock market plummets"
"MSNBC: Stock market craters"
"Highlights for Children: Stock market down big"
"FOX News:"
The chyron on the screenshot shows:
"NEW INFO ABOUT ALLEGED COVER-UP OF BIDEN'S DECLINE"
People had suggestions—and feedback—for Fox.
Fox has been working hard to distract from the economy.
Back in March, Fox mouthpiece Laura Ingraham openly told her viewers to ignore the stock market because "Trump is good for business." Ingraham stated, "Just ignore the sky is falling reports and the regime press," but made no mention of Trump's six bankruptcy filings or his convictions for business fraud or his grifting of his family's charitable organizations.
Then on Thursday, people noted Fox News removed its stock ticker from their network broadcasts.

It must be completely unrelated, of course.
