1) Fox News is for real not showing stock-market ticker during this week's collapse.
2) Its economic news is "strong jobs report."
3) Every time I've checked in today, the coverage has been "illegal immigrants committing new crimes."
This is state propaganda, on a par with North Korea or PRC.

For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity.
