I wonder if this will have any impact on her ratings...
🔵
@Mismatchedhairs context for those not on @gab and cannot see the post by @a that he's quoting:
@Mismatchedhairs @gab @a funny thing is I remember when some leftie, I think it was @TImW381, was tryna tell me that Rachel Maddow is a journalist 🤣🤦🏾♂️ smh
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
She earned a degree in public policy at Stanford in 1994.[20] At graduation, she was awarded the John Gardner Fellowship.[21] She was the recipient of a Rhodes Scholarship and began her postgraduate study in 1995 at Lincoln College, Oxford. She had also been awarded a Marshall Scholarship the same year but turned it down in favour of the Rhodes.[22] This made her the first open lesbian to win an international Rhodes Scholarship.[a][24] In 2001, she earned a Doctor of Philosophy (DPhil) in politics at the University of Oxford.
Sean Hannity dropped out of college and has stated> I am not a journalist, I am a fucking talk show host. 😂

@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a I was right, it was you.
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a She has never tried to hide it.
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a She claims to be a journalist though. At least Hannity is open about the fact that, at the least, he has no rigorous journalistic standards.
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
Maddow: Highly educated.
Carlson: BA in history
Hannity: College drop out.
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a Cuz you should only get your information who have graduated college...riiiiiiight...🙄
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a Would you prefer your news from someone in the 7th grade?? Stop making stupid comments!!
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
If they're telling the truth I'm down.
You don't have to belong to a specific class to get the news right.
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a What are you talking about?? You seem to be under the impression that Fox tells the truth.
A factual search reveals several failed fact checks by news hosts.
Says John Bolton “fundamentally was a man of the left.” – PANTS OF FIRE
“The president said he’s going to bring in 250,000 (Syrian and Iraqi) refugees into this country.” – PANTS ON FIRE
“Far more children died last year drowning in their bathtubs than were killed accidentally by guns.” – PANTS ON FIRE
“NASA scientists fudged the numbers to make 1998 the hottest year to overstate the extent of global warming.” – PANTS ON FIRE
Obamacare is “one big fat VA system.” – PANTS ON FIRE
Says Marie Yovanovitch was “dishonest” when she claimed under oath that she never personally responded to an email from a Democratic staffer. But “in fact, it turns out that she did respond.” – False
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
You seem to be under the impression that MSNBC and CNN tell the truth.
MSNBC Live and Ari & Velshi, to their credit, aren't terrible, but generally speaking, MSNBC and CNN tell lies all day long.
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
"You seem to be under the impression that MSNBC and CNN tell the truth."
Quote where I said that!! You seem to like trying to put words in my mouth.

@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
Was Fox News ever fined for lying? No.
Was MSNBC ever fined for lying? Yes.
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a Cable broadcasters are not regulated by the FCC moron. And you are still in college???
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
That explains why there's no "license" for the Fox News Channel describing it as an entertainment channel, as you had claimed.
Wait for it...
They're not regulated by the FCC!
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
Oh and yeah I'm still in college.
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a Fucking amazing!!
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
This college isn't trying to brainwash me, so I'm good 😎
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a I don't know of any college that does that....despite what you think. But in your case, maybe they should!
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a And I was right....you are a moron.
Tucker Carlson attained his secondary education at St. George's School, a boarding school in Middletown, Rhode Island. He then went to Trinity College in Hartford, Connecticut, where he graduated in 1991 with a BA in history.
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a Tucker Carlson is in no way comparable to Hannity and Maddow, as both break stories, while Tucker only spouts his opinion.
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a You do realize that Fox is not a news station. It is listed as an entertainment station.
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a Where is it listed as an entertainment channel?
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a In their license....now be a good boy and go do your homework for Monday.
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
Hmm...I am not seeing any evidence of your claim; can I borrow your textbook? 😝
This page here says it's false, and while their reasoning appears legit at face value, they seem to be conservative so they might be biased:
https://1stamender.com/article.php?articlenumber=1418
Snopes marked a claim that they were classified as parody news as false, but made no mention of an actual classification:
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/fox-in-box/
The closest thing I could find to your claim is a Daily Kos article misconstruing Fox News boasting about their hosts being entertaining to mean that they view their own channel as entertainment:
https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2017/1/14/1620475/-Fox-News-Is-NOT-News-Network-s-Own-Ads-Label-Its-Programming-As-Entertainment
Multiple Quora answers claim that Fox News is * not * registered as an entertainment station, but they're not rock-solid proof in my book. (Still, it is more evidence than you have provided.)

@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
As of October 2018, Fox News has added to their terms of use that they are an entertainment company: “Company furnishes the Company Sites and the Company Services for your personal enjoyment and entertainment.”
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
That applies only to the site and apps.
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a At least Hannity is open and honest about his biases, though. Rachel Maddow, his left-wing counterpart, is not quite so transparent.
