The Trump-Fox & Friends feedback loop, explained

Vox | April 23, 2026



How the ‘dumbest news show’ on TV influences the White House

Fox & Friends has spent years being a fever swamp of conspiracy theories, right-wing propaganda, smear campaigns, and general absurdity. Now, it’s President Trump’s favorite show, with the power to hijack the news cycle for days at a time.

    I am a moderate as I have Repblican and Democratic ideas but more closer to Repblicanism. However, I never watched Fox because for no reason. I think is because I am not an American.

    it's such a same channel such good as vox apparently is a partisant. it's good that vox put a lot of journalism works towards the Republican but i never seen this channel do the same thing for Democrats. Eventually it's just another hypocrisy.

    I do really respect Vox and I think they do a great job with honesty and I would probably be a Democrat voter if I where American. I do think it’s of note that this is a major news network and are quite left leaning. So take some of the very anti republican stuff with a grain of salt lads.
