not faux, but I reckon they were only being fair and balanced - right wings lies balanced by downright crazy
Fox TV and the Apollo Moon Hoax

What's the harm in moon landing denial?
"On Thursday, February 15th 2001 (and replayed on March 19), the Fox TV network aired a program called ``Conspiracy Theory: Did We Land on the Moon?'', hosted by X-Files actor Mitch Pileggi. The program was an hour long, and featured interviews with a series of people who believe that NASA faked the Apollo Moon landings in the 1960s and 1970s. The biggest voice in this is Bill Kaysing, who claims to have all sorts of hoax evidence, including pictures taken by the astronauts, engineering details, discussions of physics and even some testimony by astronauts themselves. The program's conclusion was that the whole thing was faked in the Nevada desert (in Area 51, of course!). According to them, NASA did not have the technical capability of going to the Moon, but pressure due to the Cold War with the Soviet Union forced them to fake it.
Sound ridiculous? Of course it does! It is. So let me get this straight right from the start: this program is an hour long piece of junk."
but it was probably well accepted by the foxie viewers

Trump: “We had the safest border in the history of our country - or at least recorded history. I guess maybe a thousand years ago it was even better.”

I remember watching part of it at the time.billy.pilgrim wrote:Fox TV and the Apollo Moon Hoax

The message wasn't just that the US was not even remotely capable of landing people on the moon. It was that the American government was lying to everyone and the American military was lying to everyone and thousands of American scientists were lying to everyone and tens of thousands of construction and launch personnel were lying to everyone and the American media was lying to everyone.
I was not in America when I watched it. They broadcast it around the world.
The impression I got was that Fox was trying to set the standard in anti-American propaganda.
