Contributing sentiments towards policy:

44% : During his first term, Trump hired at least 20 officials who had previously worked at or contributed to Fox, making some of them Cabinet secretaries and high-ranking White House aides.
19% : More alarmingly, he has encouraged Trump to pardon military personnel accused of war crimes, argued against women serving in the armed forces, and expressed the merit in a "preemptive strike" against North Korea.
19% : And Fox - though it insists on calling itself a news organization - has helped to spread lies and disinformation, including about the supposedly "rigged" 2020 election that Trump still insists he won.
14% : In Hoax: Donald Trump, Fox News, and the Dangerous Distortion of Truth, Stelter reported that Hegseth - a decorated veteran who served with the Minnesota national guard in Iraq and Afghanistan - consistently played to a singularly important viewer, checking his phone during commercial breaks in case Trump had commented on the show.
