I agree with your point. But if you look beyond Fox News, the problem lies elsewhere: Why is the general public, the main stream media included, so susceptible to believing in Fox's rhetoric / narrative? Why don't people bother to fact check, or listen to both sides? Why do people believe in things that make no sense at all? These are the bigger questions that the main stream media, as well as the government, needs to tackle.
