So Fox is about to launch a new business channel. I can’t wait! It’ll be pretty interesting to see whether this new station is as decidely untethered from reality as Foxs News. Presumably, Fox News can make money simply shoveling bullshit at its viewers that tends to confirm their general worldview, without any real consequences. A business channel, however, would seem to be dicier territory for bias, deception and propoganda. Presumably there’s some market incentive to get thigs more or less right. But, then again, basically every business channel spent the last years of the 1990s shouting about Dow 30,000! so I’d say viewer beware.
