âThere are so many unanswered questionsâŚlingering. How, for example, did Biden get 15 million more votes than his former boss Obama? Was the 2020 election a miracle? Honestly we donât know and donât expect an answer tonight.â

âWATCH: The Fox on air vs. off air comparison. To understand the depths of Foxâs hypocrisy, you really need to hear what the stars of Fox were saying on TV versus what they were telling each other behind the scenes.â @mehdirhasan

âIn the long haul, I think you and all these opinion shows [are bad for America] because youâre very good at what you do [attracting] people who are determined that ideology is more important than facts.â

@mmfa @peltzmadeline Hereâs a thread of all the advertisers who put out statements in support of the movement for Black Lives, but still advertise on Tucker Carlsonâs show where he pushes white supremacist ideas and justifies the killings of unarmed Black people.

Today the @washingtonpost released an extremely scary video that illustrates how #FoxNews downplayed the early days of the #Covid19 crisis.
Right now itâs clearer than ever that #FoxNewsLies are powerful, toxic and dangerous.
And itâs time to put a stop to it.

How did we get here? First, Fox News is a pro-Trump propaganda machine. Theyâve spent years telling viewers that the âdeep stateâ is out to get Trump, and they eagerly painted #covid19 as just the latest attack.

But #FoxNews and others like them were wrong. The #coronavirus is a deadly and highly contagious global pandemic, and their downplaying of the virus as an attempt to support Trump will quite literally cost many lives.

This is a violent & dangerous attack on a sitting Congresswoman because of who she is and what she stands for.
Itâs white nationalism in action.
@IlhanMN wonât back down. And we must loudly have her back and keep supporting the rights & leadership of immigrants in this country.

Last night, Tucker Carlson launched a racist attack on @IlhanMN saying that she âis a living fire alarm.â
Hereâs who ran ads during that segment:
@StarKistCharlie
@Nutrisystem
@WeatherTech
RT to ask them if they support this hateful rhetoric. #DropFox

Tucker Carlson and Fox News have a history of white supremacy. They peddle and give a platform to bigotry and racism.
Itâs time to hold them accountable. Advertisers should not be funding hate. #DropFox

Before people start an argument over how to win back the white working class for the 7000th time, a reminder on why @MMFA and campaigners were disappointed in candidates going on Fox News for exclusive town halls...
Every spring, Foxâlike every major networkâhas an âupfront,â where they sell up to 70% of their ad space for the coming year. This is a huge, crucial business moment for them year after year.
Thatâs happening right now.
Thatâs happening right now.
Because so many of their hosts have been embroiled in controversy over sexist and racist garbage this year, weâve been pressuring advertisers to #DropFox. It was working â a bunch of major companies were deciding to skip the controversy, and advertise instead on other networks.
When Tucker Carlson was losing advertisers & Jeanine Pirro was suspended for her anti-Muslim comments, Trump personally called Rupert Murdoch to pressure him to stand with the incendiary hosts.
Murdoch then pressured executives to the President's liking.

"While Fox's primetime shows generate the lion's share of the network's ratings & ad revenues, there have been increasing issues w/ lost advertising. Many blue-chip companies don't want to buy time on those shows because of the divisive pro-Trump content"

âExecutives are very worried Fox & Friends will be next. If advertisers start bailing on them, they're screwed.â
