This is very simple. We would never have the proof we have today if it weren't for Dominion suing Fox News over their lies about the election. So Fox had to turn over Hannity, O'Reilly's and other hosts work phones. What they found was that Fox News was knowingly lying to you idiots. They do it because if they don't, you'll tune in somewhere else. They know you don't want the news. You want confirmation that your wrong beliefs are right. And Fox gives you that.
Even as the news channel’s big names pushed election falsehoods, they were fretting over their fraudulent work behind the scenes.

Do you not know this?
The pro-Trump lawyer Sidney Powell was ‘lying’ about having evidence of election fraud, Fox personality Tucker Carlson told a producer on Nov. 16, 2020, according to an excerpt from a courtroom exhibit that remains under seal
Carlson also referred to Powell in a text as an “unguided missile,” and “dangerous as hell.” Fellow host Laura Ingraham, meanwhile, told Carlson that Powell is “a complete nut. No one will work with her. Ditto with Rudy,” referring to former New York mayor and Trump supporter Rudy Giuliani.
Sean Hannity, meanwhile, said in a deposition “that whole narrative that Sidney was pushing, I did not believe it for one second,” according to Dominion’s filing.
Despite what appeared on air, Fox News executives and hosts privately criticized the Trump camp for pushing claims of election fraud, the messages showed. Hannity even said Giuliani was “acting like an insane person” and Ingraham described him as “an idiot.” Rupert Murdoch said it was “really bad” that Giuliani was advising Trump.
Yet they continued to go on air and lie to you about a stolen election.
I know, nothings will convince or wake you up. I know.
Fox News continues to be exposed for the dishonest organization that it is — this time, with the help of its billionaire owner.
A Monday filing in Dominion Voting Systems’ $1.6 billion lawsuit against the right-wing talk channel
offered additional revelations — including the fact that Fox Corporation chair Rupert Murdoch admitted in a deposition that some of his top hosts were pushing election lies to his audience.
Murdoch rejected that Fox News, as an entity, endorsed former President Donald Trump’s election lies. But Murdoch conceded that Sean Hannity, Jeanine Pirro, Maria Bartiromo, and former host Lou Dobbs promoted falsehoods about the 2020 presidential contest being stolen.
See what they do? They want to give corporations the rights of people but they don't want us to be able to sue Fox as an entity. Just like Trump isn't responsible for anything his employees do, neither is Fox News.
Murdoch said it was “wrong” for Tucker Carlson to host conspiracy theorist Mike Lindell after the election. When asked why he continued to allow the MyPillow CEO to continue appearing on Fox News, Murdoch signaled it was a business decision. “It is not red or blue, it is green,” he said. That’s a shocking admission from Murdoch about what actually guides coverage at Fox News.
► Behind the scenes, Paul Ryan repeatedly warned the Murdochs to stop allowing the spread of election lies. The former House speaker said that Fox News should “move on from Donald Trump” and “stop spouting election lies.” Ryan told the Murdochs that many of those who thought the election had been stolen did so “because they got a diet of information telling them the election was stolen from what they believe were credible sources.” He was not wrong.
