    I remember that as far back as early aughts. Why isn’t there a counter? Granted, we’ve known about Fox News being propaganda but nobody seems to do anything about that, either.

      because the counter is an actually competent news media free from the control of private interests who would actually push back against the bullshit when it’s being peddled, but Americans didn’t want to support that. They want news to be feckless entertainment, and so it is.
