Without having read the article, I assume the gist of it is Fox exists, and not 100% of coverage of Trump is negative, therefore it's biased in his favor because obviously he's ultra-Hitler.

From comments of those who did read the propaganda article it's saying that because Trump, any mention of Trump, even if it's negative, even if it's incorrect, even if it's a malicious lie, in fact counts as a "win" for Trump.

It's an argument that could only possibly not indicate bias if, for instance, one's preferred candidate had dropped off the face of the Earth and decided to not generate any press by comparison. But that would be a stupid thing to do in the middle of a presidential campaign, would it not?

The results are certainly in his favor, the more they shit themselves in fury.

Only in an alternate reality would this be true

In a totally roundabout way, the media is in favor of Trump: Trump coverage gives them much-needed ratings, so his continued success is a net benefit for them.

However, to say they're biased to his benefit is a complete fantasy. They love to hate him, to cast him in a bad light, to turn every molehill into Mt. Vesuvius.

Unfortunately for them their propaganda is too overt, and a sizeable amount of people aren't buying their bullshit.
