The public should be curious - especially if they rely on Fox as being actual news. My MIL believes what they say. She's a very smart person, but has watched her particular news channel for decades, and when Fox bought them out, she stayed with them and trusts them to tell her the truth, in general - for major issues. She'll call us and tell us the wackiest news (especially fearmongering about California as that's where we live). She believes it as truth, at least some of it, and it's hard to say, hey, that's not what's happening here - as she'll say, but I just saw it on the news! Ugh!!! And, lying about voting issues, holy crap. That's horrendous! That's a whole new level of deceit, of which every voting American should know. The public should be very, very curious - and informed!! We are not a democracy if we are not an informed democracy. They absolutely need to continue to be held accountable for peddling fake news. And, not just them, all fake news. And we need to know about it!
