    It's called the 'Gish Gallop.'

    The best way for the Right to defeat the Left in an argument is to unload a torrent of lies, half truths, complete nonsense, and other disinformation. The idea is to overwhelm the other side's ability to form a coherent response, because there's too much to unpack.

    Trump knows Kennedy is an idiot, but he's a useful idiot in that he forces the Left to deal with him.

    Trump listens to Fox News on the daily. He takes advice and opinions from Fox News. Fox News influences his stances and direction.

    In this way, Fox News is even more powerful than Trump himself. Because Fox News influences like half the country, but also influences Trumps future actions.

    So it's not that Fox News covers the news. The issue is that Fox News creates news.
