bighairymike: Today... Here's Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer on CNN...
Perhaps that's making the rounds in the nuttersphere today in the wake of the firing of Tuckums but that quote is from March 2... and it's taken out of context. <surprise>
Schumer was telling John Berman that in light of the damage that Fox has done to democracy by lying every night that people have a right, an obligation to urge Fox to stop lying:
'Well, you know, it's hardly the first time that people have said Channel 4 should have done this, The New York Times should have done that. That's not unusual, but what has happened here is, John, very unusual. This is not simply telling them what to do. This is telling them, showing them that they have hurt our democracy probably the way no other actor, maybe with the exception of Donald Trump who used them, has done. And so, when it's that vital, I think we not only have a right to tell Rupert Murdoch and Fox what to do, but an obligation. And I hope people from one end of the country to the other will call up Fox and say, do what Leader Hakeem Jeffries and I asked for, which is stop the lies, say they were wrong and report the news. You may have a different way of reporting the news than someone else, fine. But lying is not part of that different way and cannot be.'
The discovery in the Dominion case revealed pretty much everyone at Fox is a lying liar who lies instead of reporting the news.
