It's about providing validation and reassurance.
Which doesn't always require telling people what they want to hear, but it certainly helps.
Rush and Fox and Breitbart exist because there is a need -- millions of people who are seeking emotional validation that their worldviews are correct.
It's the same reason left-leaning publications exist. Emotional validation disguised as news.
