Fox News has a bad rap on sites like Lemmy and Reddit for being "fake" and "too conservative." However, they're always reporting stuff that's actually happening, that other news outlets seem to ignore. Like this article for example, which talks about criminals being arrested at the border, yet ignored by other news outlets. I never see news like this anywhere else, when in fact it's actually happening. Why is that? Do news stations like CNN and MSNBC just think it's not a big deal? Or, do they only pander to the Left, which seems to think there's no border issues?

Criminals arrested at the border happens hundreds of times per week, every week. Fox "news" reports about those with racial stereotypes fitting whichever agenda they are currently pushing.

There's nothing newsworthy about a bunch of arrests other than simping to a deadbeat audience.
