    Fox news already admitted (multiple times) that their programs are not news, and that no sane person would consider it news.

    I think we need a law that says if a media organization is guilty of intentionally spreading fake news, that they need to spend an equal amount of time and effort on correcting the story.

    So if fox spent 4 years spreading disinfo about the 2020 election, then they need to spend 4 years, on the same timeslots, broadcasts, and webpages, reporting that they intentionally spread disinfo.

    Also, they should have to run a “surgeon general anti-smoking” style banner on all their programming that says “FOX INSISTS THAT THEIR CONENT IS NOT NEWS AND DOES NOT ACCURATELY REPORT FACTS AND CONTEXT.”
