    I admittedly do not watch the Fox News, but I thought that other than Tucker, who is out, Fox is not pro-Putin. Am I wrong?

      They’re pro whatever keeps them in power and keeps the money flowing. They push pro Putin angles when it suits them. When all the discussion went on about Russian interference in the election they were happy about it, saw the Russians as pro trump allies. The narrative only shifted after Russia invaded Ukraine and the American public was surprisingly unified in being against the invasion. The Fox News pundits seemingly overnight had new orders and they shifted their position to suddenly be anti Russian. Ofc the maga cultists never stopped being pro Putin and found ways to justify the invasion.
