Jack, Fox News viewership has dropped more than 20 percent since Election Day. Fake news stories dropped by 70 percent since Donald Trump was deplatformed from social media. Extremist organizing app Parler has been effectively shut down by service providers.
Fake news and dangerous conspiracy theories dominated the Trump era because they were pushed constantly by right-wing media. And despite the progress that's been made to rein in these dangerous lies in the past few weeks, the simple fact remains that conservative media still dwarfs progressive media.
The left simply doesn't have anything that compares to the reach of Fox News, even given its recent ratings decline. Daily Kos is the biggest progressive news outlet in the country and we simply need to be much, much bigger if we're going to provide President Biden and Democrats in Congress with the cover they need in the months ahead to enact an agenda that will undo the damage Trump has inflicted on the country.
