Due to a lawsuit Fox News made it legal for the media to lie to you. Which is awful and will do nothing to make this world a better place.
Excerpt below:
"In February 2003, a Florida Court of Appeals unanimously agreed with an
assertion by FOX News that there is no rule against distorting or
falsifying the news in the United States.
"Fox" argued that, under the First Amendment, broadcasters have the right
to lie or deliberately distort news reports on public airwaves. Fox
attorneys did not dispute Akre's claim that they pressured her to
broadcast a false story, they simply maintained that it was their right to
do so."

The fear mongering and flat out lies makes me not want to live on this planet anymore.
