Chris Hayes Hits Fox For 'Deluge' Of Fearmongering Over Manufactured Crisis

Fox does this every time there's an election coming up. Good for Chris Hayes for pointing out just how manipulative and cynical they are. He was spot on about why they're doing it as well.

HAYES: If you have tuned into right wing media at all over the past few months, you might have noticed that after spending years beating the drum on inflation, Fox News does not really want to talk about the economy anymore.

They sure as heck do not want to talk about abortion. So what is their new pet issue heading into the general election? So-called migrant crime. That's it. Honestly, you cannot overstate the deluge of coverage.

At any given moment all day, Fox is either reporting on crime, just finishing a segment of crime, or about to run a segment on migrant crime.

Cue the supercut of various Fox hosts doing exactly that before Hayes proceeded to debunk their talking points.

HAYES: The drumbeat of propaganda has been moving not just Republicans, but public opinion overall in a really bad direction.

A recent Pew poll found that a clear majority of Americans believe a large increase in the migrant population leads to an increase in crime. The problem is, it's not true. It is simply not true. It is a right wing invention.
