There are posters here on lemmy who see what’s popular on here and then rehash the same shit on their site and submit it to multiple communities across multiple instances.

This sounds so obvious but I’ve seen “news” articles on Lemmy with titles that are on par with Fox news when it comes to playing into what people want to hear.

I’ve seen people actually share the New York Post unironically because they happen to like a headline.
(The New York Post is a tabloid on par with Fox, in fact they’re owned by the same company as Fox News).

Rupert Murdoch owns the New York Post, Fox News and the Wall Street Journal. In Britain, he owns The Sun. In Australia, he owns 90% of newspapers.

The amount of damage that man had sinyce to the world is incalculable, and yet he has faced no consequences beyond an occasional fine.
That said, if it wasn’t him, I’m not sure some other ghoul wouldn’t have done the same thing. He’s a product of our fucked up system, not the cause of it.

Also the “glorious” Daily Mail.

They’re both horrible but the NY Post is far more tabloid-y than Fox News proper.

Depends what you mean. Fox opinion and the TV is on par with NYPost, perhaps even worse.
Foxnews.com general online news articles is better than NYPost.
