Opinion  Always be wary of Fox News - "Not only did Perino whiff on the empirical question at hand — that ABC News didn’t report on its own poll — but she bundled that false suggestion with a mention that the allegedly suppressed material was 'super bad news for the president.' With that commentary, Fox News’s cartoonish depiction of the mainstream media advanced another inch or two. 

"A couple of lessons here. One is that you should never, ever accept at face value any claim on Fox News — except when it comes from the network’s polling operation or election-night desk. 

"Two is that the crisis of trust in American media outlets won’t abate until Fox News’s sleazy commentary abates. At industry conferences each year, journalists and academics wring their hands about what media outlets can do to boost the industry’s sagging trust levels. Certainly there’s plenty of work they can and should do, though they face an implacable force in Fox News. Because somewhere out there, there are some network viewers who just heard that ABC News buried poll results unfavorable to Biden."
