Murdoch Media was found guilty of Phone Hacking (UK). Found Guilty of knowingly spreading false news (USA). Found guilty of actually fabricating fake news like this. Why is News Corp allowed to continue operating freely in Australia and be our largest media company? One in fact that doesn’t even pay but avoids paying taxes here?
Fox News falsely reported last Wednesday that a car accident at the Rainbow Bridge in Niagara, New York, was an act of terrorism. Much of the network’s coverage was based on reporting from correspondent Alexis McAdams, who attributed her information — later debunked — to anonymous law enforcement sources. A close look at Fox’s treatment of this event shows how the network manufactured a terrorist event out of thin air, and then blamed it on Muslims, Arabs, Palestinians, and their supporters.
