Faux News is without a shadow of a doubt quite...faux.
The OP image says this is about journalists who were found to be "colluding with the Clinton campaign" though. Were there Fox journalists within Wikileaks showing similar 'colluding'?

Ket. I am all for disabling the propaganda machine and for most of my life have held that the main steam media is biased. However, I find that Ron Paul list, disingenuous. No, make that entirely disingenuous. The list itself is propaganda.
One, our OP headlines the thread calling the list Ron Pauls. Now we all know with what esteem many of us hold Ron, I voted for him in his presidential runs a number of times. But I find no mention by Paul on how he assembled this list, indeed there is no reason given by him for any of those names, just wikileaks.
Two, all those corporate logos are considered by conservatives to be liberal mouthpieces to which I reply I consider them to be 'establishment' mouthpieces. And it is fine to point them out in this manner but to have not called out the 'establishment' mouthpieces that have a conservative bent at the same time makes the whole list, rather than a list of fake news, makes it a propaganda tool itself. Where is there any mention of the phake news that Murdock pushes out on a daily basis. And you have read at least one of my rants about the Moonies propaganda rag the Washington Times. How is it that that tabloid was not on the list? How is it that any number of the 'rightwing' internet 'newsights' got no mention in this list?
My point was, if we are going to root out propaganda, then lets root out propaganda.

Is there a place where the source links on the list are actually clickable?
CtR folks do not like screen shots for source data- it's slower to confirm, but VERY hard for bots to automatically point out for them to attack- ocr takes a lot more cpu power than scraping text. Without screen shots you'd start seeing the same list with missing chunks showing up to hide certain truths.

Come on guys you can do better then this. It is just a .jpg of a list. You cant even follow up the claims made. No where on the websites linked is the original source with open links to the evidence.
