Bit of a ramble here...
I will disagree with you both. I watch Fox at work sometimes for a full 8 hours a day. The spin is there, you just have to look for the framing.
We watch mostly daytime stuff. F&F is great, Ainsley is awesome, Kilmeade has a biting commentary and i'd probably say he's the least interested in Trump in that show. His curt and specific questioning comes off as cold towards Trump imo in the morning phone calls.
Martha Maccallum is awful. She consistently attempts to frame things emotionally and uses inference. Usually tilts her head and asks rhetorical questions while squinting her eyes to drive the point home. Painfully obvious that she's trying to make a story.
Gretchen Carlson is probably the worst. She talks to the camera like the viewer is some misguided puppy dog. I find it patronizing.
Heather Nauert is great, always cheery, delivers the news without drama. Kennedy has really found a home, nice to see her on Outnumbered and holding her own. Harris Faulkner is well spoken, Sandra Smith does well hosting.
UNPOPULAR OPINION - I really like listening to Julie Roginsky. She tends to take a beating and without getting emotional, hands out honest critiques. She gets steamrolled on pretty much every show they put her on, however I think her arguments are very rational and on point.
Jenna Lee and Jon Scott are meh - but that's because they're repeating the same thing i've already seen for a few hours. They tend to just report news which is favorable.
The contributors rum the gamut. There are some good, some bad, and some you can outright tell are placed there to form the narrative. Alan Colmes comes to mind. He's utterly unlikeable and does more damage to his own side by showing up on Fox. They know this and love having him for that reason.
Last, I want to point out that it is very evident to me as someone who has watched years of Fox News, the majority of Fox has to tolerate him, but their masters do not like Trump. It is less obvious now that he has obliterated the media repeatedly and they're behaving better.
Hannity and Steve Doocy seem to be on the Trump train without reservation. Hannity is a bit too old school conservative for me, but I appreciate his honesty.
I appreciate it if you've made it this far. One of the things I hate the most is that most of the time, the people asking questions load them so heavily that a proper response in the allotted time is impossible.
"How do you feel about $$#!, when this that and the other thing happened, and last week blah blah blah, tea of price in china moved, so how did your family feel about this when at the same time earthquakes happened in peru, combined with some garlic cloves would make a great thanksgiving dish, so how do you feel about gas prices?...(5 seconds of stammering by guest)..."That's all the time we have for today."
