Okay, give me an argument why setting Fox straight will help her win the election, because just saying so isn't an argument. I'd argue that time spent bickering 'with Fox about Fox' isn't time spent getting people that wouldn't otherwise vote for her, to vote for her. (and that, by the way, is how one impedes the other)
Nobody said she should hide.
And this is the main point: Yes actually. If she makes salient points about matters that are dear to them, something is going to gnaw eventually. Have you seen Bernie Sanders' appearances on the network? The audience definitely seems to be on his hand some of the time, just because he points out that what they have been told on the network isn't making sense. It can be done. A bunch of them are a lost cause for sure, but certainly she ought to be able to get some of them to vote for her, she running against Trump (for fox sake!).
Agreed 100%, those also watch Fox though. And Trump spouting his garbage freely on that channel without opposing voices will not make them vote for Harris.
You really think it's not ridiculous to point out how ridiculous it all is? There is value in calling out the elephant in the room however there's no value in validating Fox News and giving into the grift. That only benefits Fox News and Trump.
