If we didn't have mass misinformation and Fox News (what's the difference there?)...

Biden's approval rating would be near the 70% mark.

I love President Obama's years, but Obama didn't face anything like Biden is right now*—and he's doing a bang up job!

I see Biden as a mix of FDR and Johnson, with a touch of Obama.

*actually, I take that back, right before Obama got into office the economy collapsed, and he did AMAZING work to keep our economy from a full collapse. And any Republican would have focused on getting more money to the rich, rather than fix the economy in that situation. So were were DAMN lucky Obama won. (I went off topic there, sorry).

1. It isn't misinformation, which is just inaccurate or mistaken info; it's disinformation,

which is intentional lies.

2. Fox News gets clobbered in the ratings by ABC News, CBS News & NBC News

respectively.

If bad stuff weren't happening and if Biden weren't creepy and senile, he'd have a higher approval rating.

Fox News is amazing! Their average daily viewership is about 1.5M people. (Less than half a percent in a country off 330+M people.) Yet they manage to "disinform" a large swath of the population. (according to DUmmies)

And they compete again with the broadcast stations which have huge audiences and just about every other cable news outlet and still manage to "disinform" the majority of the public.

If the dems didn't have mass media covering their asses and even openly coordinating with them, how low would Biden's approval rating be?

If the leftist didn't have the cover the media provides, Obama would not have been elected... Biden wouldn't have been elected, and Hillary would never have been a contender for the Presidency.

The people who pushed "Trump-Russia Collusion" for 5 years have no moral authority at all to cry about "mis-information".

They still do, and "moral" is a four-letter word to many DU-folk.
