Over a year ago Howard Stern kept joking that he was going to make the whole Fox news scandal into "Fox News the musical" for Broadway. Who doesn't like to watch a musical, movie, or play with a bunch of T&A.

Good review of the movie, which raises some of the same points I did:
https://thefederalist.com/2019/12/13...es-like-a-dud/
The movie also makes the bafflingly wrongheaded mistake of adding a completely fictional major character and a ridiculously phony minor one to what is billed as an “inspired by actual events” narrative. Margot Robbie’s wide-eyed Fox News producer Kayla Pospisil, despite never existing in this plane of reality, is literally the only character shown suffering any on-screen degradation (“lift your skirt … higher”) or discussing giving in to actual sexual demands from Ailes. She also plays an important role in joining the ranks of the victimized. And as a crucifix-wearing conservative, she naturally is so pop-culture clueless that she can’t tell Glenn Frey from Don Henley, because the Eagles aren’t a Christian rock band.
The minor but more outrageously preposterous fake character is Fox News producer Jess Carr (Kate McKinnon), a closeted lesbian liberal with posters of Hillary Clinton in her kitchen. That’s how desperate the makers of this movie apparently were to inject someone they could present as the voice of reason among what they regard as all of the automatically reprehensible right-wingers at Fox. She even manages to seduce a female Fox true believer into joining her in bed — because if you’re not real in the first place, absolutely anything can happen. Right?
Before you dismiss this review as being biased trash from right-wing site "The Federalist", read the whole review. You'll see that the author praises a TV series called "The Loudest Voice" about the same subject, which was also dramatized, but was a much more fair (albeit also unflattering) portrait of Ailes and Fox News.
Congrats on your typical liberal bullshit deflection. How about the millions in US taxpayer dollars used to pay off sexual misconduct allegations against multiple members of Congress almost all exclusively Democrats. Those of us on the right don’t deny their are scummy bastards who sexist. You dumb fucks are in chronic denial and refuse to accept the stinking pile of shit coming from your side of the political aisle be it DC or Hollywood assholes like Spacey and Weinstein. It’s like the shit with Trump. Every fucking thing he’s been accused of the Democrats did FIRST. Biden admitted to quid pro quo with Ukraine over his sons investigation and the foreign aide. Clinton sold Uranium to Russia in direct contravention and under the table of sanctions against several Oligarchs including Putin who is a significant owner of Uranium One (talk about Russian collusion). Foreign agents interfering in our election process oh shit darn that whole Steele Dossier and involvement of MI-6 a supposedly ally and yes proof Russia was involved in that Dossier. Russia didn’t want Trump to win. Anything but that you dumbasses. Obama already bent over for Putin in his “I’ll have more flexibility after the election” shit in 2012. Hell even that traitorous RINO ass McCain was seen on a Russian Oligarchs boat in 2016 when the whole Dossier shit was put in motion.
Won’t even go into the crap that happened back East where the top three Gov LTG and AG were all caught with Racist shit in their past (Gov and AG) and the LTG has hard evidence of sexual abuse against a woman and not one single fucker was forced out. The GOP would’ve taken their trash out for that crap and it would’ve been demanded by the media. Yet nothing happened as the media went silent shortly after it came out thanks to the Jussi bullshit and lies in Chicago.
My point y’all need to clean up your own shitstains on the left before you go casting stones for the same shit just because they have an R next to their name. What’s criminal or Unethical shouldn’t be determined as acceptable simply due to their political leanings otherwise it’s just fucking hypocrisy which the left is amazingly adept at
Rep got fucked up. Ok my comment was going to be fictionalizing shit and passing it off as the truth is just wrong period. Sadly too many people just accept shit at face value and yeah that doesn’t matter if it’s MSNBC or Fox doing it. Too many fucking lemmings in this country. Idiotocracy coming to a city near you at this rate.
If you were a watcher of Fox News during the Ailes time period, or just interested in this subject, this video is an easy watch and pretty devastating
