Trump&#8217;s Ministry of Disinformation (aka Fox News) is right beside him with their patented brand of propaganda buttressed by flagrant falsehoods. And that relentless blast of bullpucky has taken its toll on Fox&#8217;s feeble minded viewers. A <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mediamatters.org\/voter-fraud-and-suppression\/poll-finds-americans-accept-joe-bidens-win-2020-election-except-fox\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">new poll<\/a><\/strong> by Daily Kos\/Civiqs reveals that&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;&#8230;a large majority of Americans accept and acknowledge the outcome of the 2020 presidential election: President-elect Joe Biden\u2019s victory over President Donald Trump. But among people who watch Fox News &#8230; rejecting the election\u2019s result continues to be the norm.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>A majority of Americans overall (58%) accept that Biden clearly beat Trump. That&#8217;s a conclusion they base on Biden having received seven million more votes and a 306-232 electoral college victory. But among frequent Fox News viewers only 18% accept that Trump is a loser, versus 63% who still suffer from the delusion that he won.<\/p>\n<p>This is what can be expected when a deliberately dishonest media enterprise embarks on a campaign of lies to promote their own agenda. And the threat it poses isn&#8217;t merely a division between those who accept reality and those who cling to faith-based fantasies. Both Trump and Fox News have overtly incited potential violence on the part of disappointed Trump cultists. They have promoted fringe voices calling for <em>&#8220;a civil war.&#8221;<\/em> Just last week Fox&#8217;s Lou Dobbs attacked not only those who defend democracy, but even Trump&#8217;s own law enforcement agencies. Dobbs accused them of being&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;&#8230;a politically corrupt Justice Department in Washington, D.C. A politically corrupt FBI. And I don&#8217;t know if he is a dullard, a fool, or a liar, but the Attorney General of this country is not enforcing the law. And I don&#8217;t know what he thinks he&#8217;s presiding over, but I guarantee William Barr this, it will not be a quiet surrender of this constitutional republic.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Lou Dobbs warns there won&#39;t be a &quot;quiet surrender&quot; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/bEWUETdotv\">pic.twitter.com\/bEWUETdotv<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Jason S.
