Fox News' War On Labor: A Year In Review
While Fox News stars such as Bill O'Reilly and Sean Hannity get Labor Day off, it would almost certainly not be a holiday for the rest of us if the "fair and balanced" network had its way.
Read moreFox News Trumpets Syria Propaganda In Order To Smear Obama
Apparently, Fox News is so eager to make President Obama look bad that they don't care who they turn to for help. A few days ago, it was Donald Rumsfeld. On Fox News Sunday this morning, host Chris Wallace validated anti-U.S. comments in Syria's state-run newspaper. Fox Nation took it a step further by making the propaganda its top story.
Read moreJoe Lieberman Tag Teams With Chris Wallace To Blast Obama Over Syria
Former Democratic (turned independent) Senator Joseph Lieberman appeared on Fox News Sunday today as part of the panel discussion segment. It’s one thing to disagree with President Obama’s actions and inactions over Syria. It’s another thing for a former Democratic vice presidential candidate and U.S. senator who caucused with the Democrats (even if he did flirt with running as a Republican) to get in bed with Fox News’ inflammatory, anti-Obama rhetoric.
Read moreBill O'Reilly Threatens To Disrupt Mass Over Immigration Reform!!!
When Bill O'Reilly speaks, people better listen up. As we know, when those whom Bill has scolded don't pay obeisance to the all powerful Bill, they suffer the consequences of his vengeance. And in threatening to wreak havoc for whoever violates his rules, Bill is even threatening the Catholic Church. While O'Reilly had no problem when Catholic bishops exhorted Catholics to contact their congressperson regarding the HHS birth control mandate, he doesn't feel the same way about immigration reform. During a discussion of the Church's position on immigration issues, O'Reilly warned that there will be consequences for Catholic clergy who urge parishioners to support immigration reform legislation. So priests at Manhasset's St. Mary's Roman Catholic Church, you've been put on notice. If you dare to articulate support for immigration reform, O'Reilly, during your homily, will raise holy, freaking, hell!!!!! But wait, didn't he once condemn gay activists who did the same?!

We had a larger than usual number of emails this week from people who thought we are Fox News. Many of them were individual requests for investigations into personal situations, which I have not included in order to protect the identity of the sender. Here, for your regular, week-end glimpse into the mind of Fox News viewers is our latest batch. Apparently, a lot of people are not happy with The Five these days!
Read moreYes, Greta Van Susteren, Tim Scott Was Invited To March On Washington Anniversary
Memo to Greta Van Susteren and Herman Cain: You owe your viewers an apology for your misbegotten comments the other night about the March on Washington’s 50th anniversary supposed snub of Senator Tim Scott. In reality, it was Scott who snubbed the event. Are you going to invite him on and grill him over it?
Read moreHannity’s And Pavlich’s Nauseating Attitudes Toward African Americans
I’ve been writing for years about Sean Hannity’s bigotry. Lately, he has been somewhat restrained as his colleague Bill O’Reilly has taken center stage in Fox’s prime time race baiting. But last night, on the same night that O’Reilly apologized for saying that no Republicans had been invited to the March On Washington anniversary – and then chastised them for declining their invitations – Hannity stepped up to the race-baiting plate. He and Fox News contributor Katie Pavlich seemed to be trying to outdo each other in attacking the March On Washington commemoration and to patronizingly berate the African American guest, Richard Fowler, who had a differing opinion. While they were at it, they attacked African American concerns about voting rights, too.
