This is not new, nor exclusive to Fox. The Daily Show goes out of it's way to declare they aren't a news outlet, and Rachel Maddow also calls her program entertainment rather than news.

- gremloni 5y agoA satirical show on Comedy Central vs an entire news channel. You’re making my point.
- BitwiseFool 5y agoIs there really a difference, though? To me this is all just "a rose by any other name" and calling something news vs entertainment is a distinction without a difference.
- gremloni 5y agoOf course there’s a difference.
