Fox & Friends airs images that paint a picture of border chaos to help Trump build wall support 

Melissa Joskow / Media Matters In the third week of President Donald Trump’s government shutdown over his insistence that a border wall be funded, Fox News’ Fox & Friends is filling the airwaves with seemingly chaotic images of migrant caravans to build support for the wall, which, according to co-host Steve Doocy, is just what the president wants.  On January 9, Doocy claimed that Trump is “trying to get the people in the middle, the independents, who have not taken a side yet, to look at images like that and think, ‘OK, is that a bad thing for the country?’”  Steve Doocy: President Trump is counting on the images you see on Fox News to convince you that a border wall is necessary pic.twitter.com/59CF3XRn5m — Bobby Lewis (@revrrlewis) January 9, 2019 Accordingly, the January 10 edition of Fox & Friends aired a lot of b-roll footage of what appear to be migrant caravans.
