Fox News has descended to the level of "outright North Korean television" in its coverage of Donald Trump, particularly regarding his trade policies.
Nicole Hemmer, a historian at Vanderbilt University, argues that Fox News is now simply chasing after Trump's actions and providing cover for them, rather than engaging in objective journalism.
"It is fascinating to see Fox move from state TV to outright North Korean television," she said. "At this point, they’re just chasing whatever Trump does and trying to provide cover as much as possible. When the tariffs were in place, they were his manly tariffs, People were going to feel pain, but they were going to get better afterward. And now that the tariffs have been changed—not removed, but changed—it is this celebration of 'the art of the deal.'"
