Consider the Trumpers’ Fox News source – Santa Cruz Sentinel

I saw a letter printed recently responding to my letter where I wondered how people could still support Trump, despite his criminal conviction (and with more possibly to come).

I thought I would read that letter to try get an understanding of the opposite sides’ perspective, but that letter writer lost me when he said that the only truthful source for news is from Fox News.

This is the same Fox News that paid out over $700 million to Dominion in their defamation case for knowingly reporting election lies, and they are currently being sued for nearly $3 billion in another case for false election reporting that defamed Smartmatic.

So much for the letter writer’s source for receiving truthful news. Now I have a better understanding of why people still support Trump: consider their source for getting “news.”
