Right wing media complain about Hunter Biden trial. Or something. [View all]

OK. This is from Fox News. I had to provide a link because you wouldn't believe me if I simply described how they are complaining about a trial and verdict that went completely their way. There is no point, of course, at least no point I can detect. It's just more of their "everything is wrong" viewpoint, which they trot out even when everything goes right, or what they consider right. It's part of the larger pattern of trying to convince people that everything is broken, so broken that there is no good news about anything. They understand that finding some satisfaction in the verdict would be an admission that the justice system works, or at least couldn't be corrupted in this case, and that would mean that the justice system is not weaponized against them. But everybody knows it is. It just has to be. Because. It's a blunt technique, not at all subtle, but Fox doesn't do subtle. It's the "Atlas Shrugged" of infotainment.
