Todd Starnes Ignores Hate Crime Shooting At Jewish Centers
Todd Starnes is always quick to tweet about black on white crime and brawls involving black youth in order to advance the white, right wing, and Fox News narrative that white America is at the mercy of vicious gangs of marauding black thugs. And when a man carrying material from the Southern Poverty Law Center shot a guard at the headquarters for the hate group, the Family Research Council, Starnes didn't waste an opportunity to tweet about it. But being a good Christian and all, you would think that Starnes would be outraged about the recent shooting deaths of Christians, outside two Kansas Jewish community centers, allegedly perpetrated by a white supremacist whose views about the Jews are as vile as those of Starnes' culture warrior soul brotha, Jerry Boykin. Yet, not a word about it on his twitter feed which is full of righteous patriotic outrage over the so called "range war" which is a cause celebre for right wing militia types and Fox News.
Read moreFox News’ Latest Excuse To Promote Rancher’s Armed Insurrection In Nevada
Sean Hannity is far from the only Fox host cheerleading a Nevada rancher’s armed conflict with the federal government. As even Fox’s Megyn Kelly has acknowledged, rancher Cliven Bundy, “doesn’t have a (legal) leg to stand on” in his beef with the Bureau of Land Management. And he has threatened the safety and well-being of law enforcement personnel. But Fox & Friends proved this morning that the “fair and balanced” network cares more about tearing down the U.S. government than it cares about the rule of law, the safety of Americans or even the truth.
Read moreFox News Outrageous Quote Of The Week – 4/6/14 - 4/12/14
Wow, have we got a lot of outrageousness for you this week! We’ve got Liz Cheney talking about torture - I mean Benghazi - Bill O’Reilly attacking “deceiver” Stephen Colbert, Sean Hannity all but calling for armed insurrection against the federal government in a Nevada range dispute and Mike Huckabee thinking that he might be freer in North Korea than he is here. That and much more. Your work is cut out for you, dear readers, as you decide which was Fox News’ most outrageous quote last week.
Read moreAllen West's Politicization Of Fort Hood Shooting Our Outrageous Quote Of The Week

Read moreHuckabee: I'm Beginning To Think North Korea Has More Freedom Than U.S.
First, it was Russia the Fox News conservatives kept slobbering over. Now, it's North Korea. That is, if recent remarks by Mike Huckabee are any indication.
Read moreHume Echoes O’Reilly: Obama And Holder Use Race As Shield And Sword To Attack
Fox News’ Brit Hume echoed colleague Bill O’Reilly – with help from Fox host Chris Wallace – when he snubbed the anniversary of the Civil Rights Act in favor of a racial attack on President Obama and Eric Holder. In this case, Hume complained, “Both Eric Holder and Barack Obama have benefited politically enormously from the fact that they are African-American.” Hume later added, “(T)o those two men race has been both a shield and a sword that they have used effectively to defend themselves and to attack others.”
Read moreFox Nation Vs. Fox News Latino: 'Illegal Immigrants' Vs. 'DREAMer Teachers'
In take taking down conservative culture clubber Brent Bozell's claim, during Megyn Kelly's show, that the Spanish language Univision is biased because they support the ACA, Jon Stewart used the opportunity to highlight the dramatic difference between how Fox Nation and Fox News Latino cover issues related to Hispanics. This difference is manifest in articles, currently on both websites, about the Denver school district's recruitment of teachers who came to this country without documentation but who now have status under "Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals." The difference in how Fox Nation and Fox News Latino is like the difference between black and white - and, in the case of Fox News, this figure of speech is quite literal!
Read more‘Freedom Fighter’ Sarah Palin Lectures President Obama On The Constitution
Sarah Palin visited Fox News’ Cashin’ In show this morning. It’s supposed to be a business show. But instead of talking business, host Eric Bolling described Palin as a “freedom fighter” and asked her which constitutional amendment is “most at risk” thanks to President Obama.
Read moreHannity Deliberately Inflames Nevada Ranch Conflict – While Professing Concern For Safety
Sean Hannity continued his irresponsible and dangerous attempts to aggravate an armed Nevada ranch conflict last night. Oh, he made a few statements about hoping the situation would be resolved peacefully. But his open sympathy for the rancher defying the federal government, his demonization of the federal government and his frequent suggestions that the Nevada rancher is or is about to be the victim of uncalled-for violence all amounted to the behavior of a civil warmonger.
Read moreMike Huckabee Isn't Homopobic But A Good Christian Unlike Our Lying President!
There's no party like a persecuted Christian party and Fox News knows how to bring it. Last night, on The Factor, professional Christian Laura Ingrham whined about how "the elites" are trying to say that "traditionalist" Christians are anti-gay. (Ya Think!) Her guest, fellow professional Christian and Fox host Mike Huckabee defended those poor Christians and explained how he isn't homophobic, but just a good bible believing Christian who, unlike our phony Christian President, will never waiver in his homophobia beliefs about "traditional marriage." Whether it's the "war on Christmas" or the "culture war," The Factor is always ready to fight.
