As Europeans look upon what is happening in the USA and think "that could not happen here..."

Please be aware that what happened in the USA was largely a product of Fox News (News Corp.)

While still in their nascent forms, the EU equivalents are Axel Springer [0] and Euronews [1]. If what happened in the USA is to be avoided in the EU, then these extremely ideological news publishers must be tarred and feathered as soon as possible. Avoiding the path of the "post-truth" USA [2] is the greatest task of our time.
