@ProPublica@newsie.social  ·  activity timestamp 4 days ago

ProPublica examined months of Fox News’ coverage and reviewed over 700 videos posted on social media.

The network used five-year-old footage, mislabeled other dates and implied footage from elsewhere was in Portland.

@ProPublica Republicans lie. That isn't new. Americans tolerate it. That's not new either. At this point, it's hard to imagine what Trump and his gang of thugs could do for the people to make them knock this shit off. Because waiting for the goddamned Democrats to do anything effectively been futile.

@ProPublica Sinclair, local stations and Fox affiliates in Seattle broadcast and promoted the same disingenuous contentions here, especially during 2020 Protests, though they had practiced for many years. Chiefly they created the mythology of the antifa conspiracy in Seattle and jailed progressive activists using images from Minneapolis and international cities. Seattle, like other cities, has a politically engaged population and repressive police union.

@ProPublica Another case of TV overdose. Rather foxic, eh, toxic, as it seems.

@ProPublica Back in 2020 we had a MAGA running for local office who, thanks to misinfo spreading on Twitter, was sure the Target in town was forced closed by protests. I sent her a video of it open for business and looking as it always does. It never occurred to her that she could leave her house and see for herself.

Misleading editing and false attribution? Portland should sue Fox 'News' for a quadzillion gazillion dollars!

@ProPublica Repeatedly point this out to conservatives and more than half will continue to believe FoxNews reporting about Portland. A decade after the U.S. invaded Iraq, more than half of Republicans polled still believed Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction.

@ProPublica this is super valuable but is really just the tip of the iceberg on how protests are grossly mischaracterized in mainstream media
