Fox News is going after COURIER’s award-winning journalism

 

Courier

That’s right, John: Fox News, the most powerful right-wing propaganda outlet in the history of America, just attacked COURIER and our mission to expose right-wing misinformation and provide left-leaning local news to those who live in communities where misinformation spreads.

We’ll get into Fox’s attacks on our CEO and our newsrooms in a second, but if you’re ready to help us stand up to Fox News and protect our democracy, please chip in $10 today.

In their “First on Fox” political blog, Fox News published a “report” about COURIER. The article is full of the kind of wild conspiracy theories, boogie men, and insinuations that define Fox News’ paranoid, divisive style. To give you a sense of what we mean, here’s the image they posted along with the article (the woman in the center is our CEO and founder Tara McGowan):

Seriously, John, that’s the real graphic they used. Subtle, eh? 🙄 

Of course, this is all just Fox’s effort to undermine our mission. They’re afraid of us because we fearlessly call them and any media outlet out for using misinformation, lies, and propaganda to generate profits and push an anti-democratic agenda. 

John, when COURIER talks about our journalism being “values-driven,” that’s not just some Orwellian marketing slogan like Fox’s “Fair and Balanced,” we really mean it. 

Unlike Fox News, COURIER will never spread the lies and hate that’s dividing our communities and causing the kind of political violence we saw on January 6th. We value protecting democracy above all else and believe that trustworthy local journalism is essential to that mission. 

Right now, Fox News is attacking that mission, John. Can you help us fight back so we can hold right-wing misinformation factories like Fox News accountable in this critical election year?
