Sarah Palin Gives Ted Nugent A Big Thumbs Up
While even Fox News is now condemning Ted Nugent’s abhorrent attack on President Obama, there’s at least one of their contributors enthusiastically standing behind The Nuge: Sarah Palin.
Read moreGot Irony? Bill O'Reilly Attacks 'Salon' Because Writer 'Smeared' Him!!
Bill O'Reilly has perfected the fine art of the Fox News fatwa which includes a relentless personal attack on Dr. George Tiller, a safe and legal abortion provider, even after Tiller's assassination. America's pastor (or is it mullah?) in chief has absolutely no qualms about attacking anybody with whom he doesn't agree. Frequently, in order to make these folks' lives miserable, he sends out his stalker/producer to harass them. On occasion, these folks get death threats. O'Reilly can give it; but he certainly can't take it as evidenced by his admonition to ignore "guttersnipes" and his seemingly paranoid screed about "enemies." So ya gotta laugh uproariously out loud over O'Reilly's latest bit of umbrage over how a "Salon" writer lampooned his commentary on the Jimmy Kimmel show. It appears that while O'Reilly can talk the talk about critics, he can't walk the walk!
Read moreDennis Miller's Smear Of Sandra Fluke Wins Our Most Outrageous Quote Of The Week Poll
Dennis Miller had some stiff competition last week but his sexist smear of Sandra Fluke handily won our Fox News Outrageous Quote of the Week poll. I think we can all agree it was a well deserved distinction for Miller.
Read moreMegyn Kelly Helps Legitimize Discredited Koch Brothers’ ObamaCare Ad
Even Megyn Kelly had to acknowledge last night that there are credibility problems with the ObamaCare-victim ad paid for by the Koch-funded Americans for Prosperity. But that didn’t stop Kelly from reaching into her arsenal of disingenuousness to help use the victim, leukemia patient Julie Boonstra, as a weapon against President Obama and ObamaCare.
Read moreColbert Hits Back At O'Reilly With His Dueling Auction
Stephen Colbert comedically hit back at Bill O'Reilly last night (with a bonus swipe at Sean Hannity). You could call it a matter of dueling charity auctions: O'Reilly's Super Bowl interview notes vs. Colbert's stolen microwave. Regardless of the outcome, we're the winners, at least comedically speaking.
Read moreFox Ignores Greg Abbott Campaigning With Ted Nugent
Greg Abbott’s invitation to Ted Nugent to campaign with him has raised quite a few eyebrows. But not on Fox News. They didn’t even bother to report it.
Read moreHannity Blames Obama For Violence in Ukraine, Venezuela And Syria
The Hannity show covered the violence in Ukraine by – how else? – using it to smear President Obama. That’s not too surprising. But then Sean Hannity took it a few steps further and suggested that Obama is to blame for violence in Syria, Venezuela and elsewhere, too.
Read moreMegyn Kelly Gushes Over Heavenly Day Tripper
More than soul saving, televangelism is a form of entertainment for profit. And nobody knows entertainment for profit than Roger Ailes who, according to Gabriel Sherman's Ailes biography, "The Loudest Voice in the Room," sees Fox News as an entertainment as well as a real news venue. So despite his deep Christian faith (!), it's not beyond the realm of probability that Ailes, whose background includes theater, sees Fox's abundant Christian programming as entertainment as well as a shout out to Fox's evangelical audience. How else to explain Fox's seeming pre-occupation with after death experiences which are a staple of Fox & Friends. But it's just not America's morning celebration of vacuity that validates celestial voyagers. Last night, in featuring another traveler, Megyn Kelly told her audience that "sometimes you get a sign."
Read moreO’Reilly Lectures Girl Scouts About ‘Homosexual Overtones’ Of Their Former Spokesperson
Bill O’Reilly followed up on his Girls Scouts “controversy” with an interview last night with a spokeswoman for Girl Scouts of the USA. The discussion began with spokeswoman Kelly Parisi explaining the innocuous tweet that caused pro-lifers to stage a “buycott” of Girl Scout cookies. But before long, O’Reilly was reprimanding the organization about the “homosexual overtones” of their former spokesperson.
