For the past three years, Fox News has been obsessed with “wokeness.” Since the aftermath of GeorgeFloyd’s murder by police in May 2020, Fox News personalities and guests have applied the label “woke” toa staggeringly wide array of topics. Few entities have escaped the network's demonization, from themilitary to M&M’s, New York prep schools to NASCAR, social media to mall Santas.The progression of “woke” from its origins in the Black community to its eventual status as a conservativedog whistle has been well-documented, yet right-wing media — including Fox News — can’t seem to settleon a definition. However, the lack of a clear definition hasn’t stopped Fox from indiscriminately throwing“woke” at hundreds of things.The problem is a two-way street: Fox personalities struggle to define “woke” because they have attributedthe term to nearly everything under the sun, stripping it of any meaningful definition and surrendering itto right-wing dog whistles. In doing so, Fox News has solidified the word’s status as a derisive catch-all foranything involving marginalized groups or progressive policies, arguably increasing its effectiveness as ameans of inspiring outrage among its audience.Here is a list of over 200 things Fox News personalities, guests, and writers have called “woke.”

Title: Fox News producer files explosive lawsuits against the network, alleging she was coerced into providing misleading Dominion testimony
// - This is an example of how big media corporations can deceive the public and compromise the truth - It helps create a nation of misinformed people which destabilizes political governance - the workspace sounds toxic - the undertone of this story: the pathological transformation of media brought about by capitalism - it is the need for ratings, which is the indicator for profit in the marketing world, that has corrupted the responsibility to report truthfully - making money becomes the consumerist dream at the expense of all else of intrinsic value within a culture - knowledge is what enables culture to exist, modernity is based on cumulative cultural evolution - this is an example of NON-conscious cumulative cultural evolution or pathological cumulaitve cultural evolution

Along with the proliferation of newsletters and paid journalism spaces, is this another in the litany of sites that do news analysis while chasing eyeballs? Is it following in the tradition of the move from hard news (or tiny amounts of it) to loud news analysis a la Fox News?
Will we see the volume and partisanship increase in this newsletter/paywall space over the next decade until the next thing arrives?

Tillman, who was killed in Afghanistan in 2004 by friendly fire
Even though Fox News repeatedly repeated the Govt's claim that Tillman was killed fighting the Taliban.
In interviews with The Washington Post, the Army Ranger's mother and father said they believe the military and the government created a heroic tale about how their son died to foster a patriotic response across the country.
U.S. military spokesman Lt. Col. Matthew Beevers said Saturday that Tillman was killed Thursday night in a firefight at about 7 p.m. on a road near Sperah, about 25 miles southwest of a U.S. base at Khost.
After coming under fire, Tillman’s patrol got out of their vehicles and gave chase, moving toward the spot of the ambush. Beevers said the fighting was “sustained” and lasted 15-20 minutes. Pat Tillman turned down a $3.6 million contract in 2002 to join the Army in the wake of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. Beevers said Tillman was killed by enemy fire, but he had no information about what type of weapons were involved in the assault, or whether he died instantly.
