Trump - America's First Fox News President

This is something I've been thinking about for a while.

Donald Trump's primary news source appears to be Fox News. Not only that, but he appears to believe virtually everything they broadcast. I think that makes him unique amongst Presidents of the United States. He's also in their target demographic - a self entitled old white conservative male, quick to jump to conclusions, who sees things only in black and white and who, because of a distinct lack of curiosity, is profoundly ignorant about the world around him.

To quote CNN in Fox News takes pro-war position as MAGA media feuds over Israel-Iran conflict:

Carlson could have been alluding to the 79-year-old president, whose Fox fixation is so well-established that CEOs and foreign leaders jockey for airtime with the hopes that Trump will see their segment. 

Trump is very much the product that Fox News sells to its advertisers. 

That's why I call him America's first Fox News President.

Anti-Intellectuals on the Left

An interesting video by Nope Brigade on how Leftists Can Be Just As Anti-Intellectual as the Right.

 

This is from the video description:

If you have a critique of academia and academics, great. Me too. What is NOT a critique are simplistic sweeping statements based in reactivity, a profound lack of critical thinking and a refusal to navigate nuance. How is this any different from what the Right does??? At least they’re honest about outright hating experts and knowledge.
