As biased as Fox News is, it would be completely ridiculous to call it state-affiliated media.

  How much more “state affiliated” can you get than when Trump was in office he spent most of his day watching FoxNews and called it when he didn’t like the coverage and they acquiesced? This is not some conspiracy theory. It was very much out in the open. Even more recently, the house speaker gave Fox preferred access to the Jan 6th video.

      Tons. See https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/politics/wp/2017/11/29/here-are-all-the-times-were-pretty-sure-that-trump-was-watching-fox-news-as-president/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/politics/wp/2017/11/29/h... among others. He literally live tweeted about the something related to FOX News segment as it was happening.

    I don’t even doubt you, I just don’t think it’s the same thing as consistently-affiliated state media. If anything it’s party biased, but it’s not because they’re afraid the party will jail them, kill them, or forcibly take over their business.
