So would Hannity, for the second time in two weeks, cop to an error? Would his colleagues in Fox’s popular prime-time lineup address the abrupt change in the story they had been promoting?"<br />LOL. You know the answer to that. Fox News desperately covered anything BUT the exposure of the lies they had been promoting. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/02/16/fox-conspiracy-theory-upended/Dan Hagenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16577238849397958248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4650928693565504625.post-47621441816068842632023-09-26T08:27:16.086-07:002023-09-26T08:27:16.086-07:00We've already seen the way to destroy Fox News...We've already seen the way to destroy Fox News.
