Does Fox News lead or follow its audience? During the 2015-’16 presidential campaign, Fox tried to take out Donald Trump, as when then-Fox host Megyn Kelly confronted Trump with his misogynistic remarks at the first Republican debate. Then, after Joe Biden defeated Trump in 2020, Fox tried to play it straight, more or less. Stelter, who’s written a new book about Fox called “Network of Lies,” tells Jones that most Fox employees don’t much care about politics. I wouldn’t expect to see Stelter return to his old job, which is being ably filled by Oliver Darcy.
