    Agree with the point that Fox News tapped that audience, disagree that removing them wouldn’t help.

    Media literacy must be included as part of primary education. How do we know things? How do we find out things? What does it mean to “create a podcast”? etc.

      Ideally, yes, it would be better if we lived in a world where there was not a niche for Fox News to fill. But again, removing Fox News would not remove that niche. Something else would fill the vacuum created by its absence.
