OT Even the AP is fake news

I don't really have to prove it. It's obvious to any unbiased observer, except maybe those who are desperately looking to have an argument, not that I'd ever suggest you'd be in that category.

But still.

Do they provide fawning coverage? Clearly. Hannity is exhibit A. Do you want to claim Hannity is not fawning?

Do they 'often' provide fawning coverage?

Often: frequently, many times, many a time, on many/numerous occasions, a lot, as often as not, repeatedly, again and again, time and (time) again

Hannity's show is on repeatedly, isn't it?

You are hung up on the word 'news'. The article was talking about the Fox News Channel, not the news. Hannity is on the Fox News Channel.

I'm not sure that a person can fawn over themselves? If Trump had a show it would probably be better described as delusional egotism rather than fawning.

Why do I assume what is factual? That Hannity is on Fox News? That he's on for an hour a night?

An hour a night is 'often', even if none of the other coverage on Fox was fawning (which of course, much of it is).

I already said the 99% isn't to be taken literally, and that I don't know the exact percentage. Nor does it matter for this argument, since the benchmark is often, not a specific percentage.

Except that it is an opinion piece, not news. Nice try.

Well, but I know that most news organizations also publish opinion pieces, so I don't automatically assume that anything on their site is news.

And you know that too.
