5. The conservatives tried very hard to get a Fox News of the North

I think it was going to be named something like Star News but people did not want it and the Liberals stopped it. They wanted it to be mandated that all cable companies put it on as a regular channel. It would not survive otherwise but that was rejected. Fox is not on the regular package but you cannot get the news package without it.
The regular Fox News is all over the world, the same version as the in the US, not like a CNN international. When I lived overseas, I noticed the dislike of Americans increased, and I think it was because people think Fox News was actually how people in the US think. It has done so much damage around the world.
