How many people read this headline and think that some white house aide is now getting millions of dollars for something he or she is doing for Fox right now? Does no-one see the problem here? https://www.yahoo.com/news/white-house-deputy-chief-receiving-millions-fox-203310545--politics.html
Seems like real news with a semi sensationalistic headline. Fox news is the propoganda division of the Trump administration though. This is just another story connecting the two.
Misleading at best. Guy leaves fox in 2017 and joins Trump in 2018. Is there an AP story on CNN being the resistance?
He's is getting paid a total of $15 million for Seems like a real quality individual that probably has not ties or connections in fox news still?
the story is that a trump aid has been receiving and will continue to receive monies totaling $7 million dollars since joining the white house staff through may of next year. seems to be a fact that isn't being reputed. as chief of staff for white house communications, his income sources must be disclosed and a news agency is reporting it. don't see the fake news at all. repudiated edit
Yes and the title makes it seem to anyone that he's getting the money for something he's doing for Trump. Hence the term "fake news"
I think that's your interpretation of the title and your reading a lot into it yourself. I don't find anything about the title or the article being fake news. How would you word the title better?
Considering that Fox News publicly came out in support of Jim Acosta and his loss of press credentials there does not appear to be a conflict of interest with Fox News and their former employee.
How about, "Ex fox news millionaire and co-president is white house aide, despite resigning from fox news in scandal. Still receives severance payments from former employer."? Personally I don't think the story here is that he is getting severance pay by Fox News still, I think its that Trump continues to hire the worst and most nefarious people for every position possible. In this case its a high level fox news executive who most likely still has connections with his old company and has experience in dealing with scandals, which is why Trump probably hired him. Some of that is speculation though, but given Trumps track record its not off base speculation. Either way its not fake news and its not a big story to get all upset over the media with, imo.
most "fake news" allegations are in connection with sourced articles that are unverifiable to most individuals. https://www.cnbc.com/2018/11/23/tru...15-million-in-bonuses-severance-from-fox.html link to cnbc article with copies of dis closer documents. AP just piggybacking on this the original.
i reread it, but only saw the possible implication of whether or not it is ethical for the chief white house communications officer to be receiving payments from any news network, severance or otherwise.
You asked specifically about the headline, so we replied about the headline. Now you want to know about the word choice "often fawning" in the article. I'd say that description is completely factual. Would you like to provide an argument to the contrary? barfo
