Fox knowingly lied to its millions of viewers

Last night, Stephen Colbert took up our cause! He said: "Fox News doesn’t believe a word they say, and neither should you -- and neither should the White House Correspondents' Association."

Watch here. Then, join thousands who have signed our petition to the White House Correspondents' Association: Ban Fox from the White House press pool and stop giving it cover. (After you take action, you can contact the WHCA directly.)

WATCH: Stephen Colbert takes up our call to the White House Correspondents' Association.

Rupert Murdoch admitted under oath that prominent Fox hosts knowingly spread false information and narratives about election fraud in 2020. Murdoch also admitted that he colluded with Jared Kushner to provide the Trump campaign with confidential information about Biden campaign ads and debate strategy.

Fox knowingly lied to its viewers and should be held accountable -- under the law and by their peers in actual news organizations. That’s why we’re calling on the White House Correspondents' Association to remove Fox from the press pool.

Being part of the press pool means that for many events, every other outlet is reliant on Fox because they have the only reporter or camera in the room where news is being made. That should no longer be true.

An avalanche of court documents now show that Rupert Murdoch, some of Fox’s biggest media stars, and many top executives knew Biden won the election -- but they continued to lie to millions of viewers anyway. In fact, they were frustrated they hadn't lied more.

When Murdoch was asked if he could have stopped Fox News from putting on the air Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, and others promoting Trump's Big Lie, Murdoch said under oath "I could have. But I did not."

Every day that the White House Correspondents’ Association allows Fox to participate in the White House press pool, they give legitimacy to a right-wing propaganda outlet -- and are complicit in Fox continuing to misinform millions of people.

Sign the petition to the White House Correspondents’ Association: Fox is an outlet that knowingly lies to viewers and spreads misinformation that has led to violence. An outlet peddling misinformation should not be recognized as legitimate by the White House Correspondents Association. Fox must be removed from the press pool immediately.

Thanks for being a bold progressive.
