share: December 9, 2019 Among the many possible explanations for the outcome of the 2016 election, one statistic is particularly eye-catching, according to MSNBC. It comes from a 2017 study of cable news bias, which reveals that for every ten minutes of weekly Fox News viewership in a particular region, Republican vote share increases 1.2 percent. His column appears on alternate Mondays. In an election that turned on three swing states Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan where Donald Trump won by a margin of less than one percent, this suggests that one way we could have avoided Trump's presidency would have been to reduce Fox News consumption in just three states by a mere ten minutes per week. Other studies have added to the news network's impressive accolades. I'm not a well-versed historian of propaganda, but I think it's obvious to recognize what Fox News has done as a breakthrough in the field.
