It's no longer controversial to claim that #BigTech is a parasite on the #news business. But there's still a raging controversy over the nature of the parasitism, and, much more importantly, *what to do about it*.

#RupertMurdoch, propriétaire de #Foxnews, a admis sous serment qu'il jugeait l'obsession de #Trump comme "folie" mais continuait à donner une plateforme à celui-ci et ses acolytes pour "rester rentable". Et ceci malgré sa conviction que "c'était dangereux pour tous".

Hoax,” the new book by the CNN journalist Brian Stelter provides a damning examination of the incestuous relationship between Trump & his favorite channel & of Fox’s democracy-decaying role as a White House propaganda organ masquerading as conservative journalism.
“Hoax”'s basic thesis: that Fox is powerful & toxic, is widely acknowledged, thanks to last year’s NYTimes exposé of Rupert Murdoch, whose company owns Fox. Even so, Stelter’s cataloging of the power and toxicity of Fox is an important addition to the growing library of books
documenting this strange period in American history.
Stelter tells how spurious attacks by Fox hosts led Trump to fire cabinet secretaries & shut down the federal government. It is the type of old-school media muscle-flexing that would be impossible under a stronger president.
