Fox news personalities frequently allow Trump and his allies airtime where they lie about losing the election to Biden. I don't know how you get any less truthful than that

They allow the previous president airtime!? Quick, someone call the cops.

We should refund the police, and then call them!
What are you arguing about?
1. Someone mentions Fox being bad for bias in story selection.
2. I ask: why are we singling out Fox specifically? Others do it too?
3. You say: "They give Trump airtime!"
Ok? That is a difference I guess? Not got much to do with what we're talking about though?

It's an example of how Fox is less honest than other news companies, exactly what you asked for. They let people on air spout obvious lies all the time. Find a mainstream channel that does the same. I'll wait

Is it less honest or is it just a narrative you don't like.

MSNBC just like the other outrage opinion info-tainments has a lack of nuance (what you call lies) in many of its narratives.

I am not from US. And could not care less who won.
I think there is no less honest. It is simple, you lie or don't. In my eyes they are all bad, and it is up to me to inform myself.
