Fox Nation Ascribes Bogus Quote To Black Gang In Order To Smear Obama?
Despite its claim to be devoted to "those who oppose intolerance," Fox Nation specializes in race baiting. It frequently posts threads which show minorities in less than flattering and often times criminal situations - white criminals, not so much. But Fox Nation knows exactly what it's doing as these threads invariably elicit ugly comments about how having an African-American president has given rise to black thuggery which will result in an impending race war for which the "nation" is arming itself. The comments frequently invoke crude stereotypes of black women and, on occasion, homicidal ideation. Such is the case with the thread titled, "Teen Mob Hijacks Gas Station, "We Own This!"
Read more‘Psychologist’ Newt Gingrich Analyzes Obama’s Handling Of Middle East Tensions
Newt Gingrich was yet another in the line of phony Middle East experts trotted out by Sean Hannity under cover of discussing the situation in the Middle East – who just happens to spend more time attacking the Obama administration than talking about anything else. But Gingrich reached a new low when he offered up a pop-psychology analysis of Obama, saying he has “almost a psychological need to be totally blind to the realities of Islamic extremism.”

Hannity Hearts Trump's Racial Attacks On Obama
Birther Boy Donald Trump got a full hour on a Hannity special last night to offer up his gas bag of punditry. Naturally, Sean Hannity drooled over every attack. But Hannity – who decries the race card when it’s played by black people – seems to think it’s a fine tool to use against President Obama.
Read moreFox & Friends Disses Healthy School Lunches With Salt Institute President Posing As "Mom"
While the reality based community is concerned about the fact that a third of this country's children are obese, the magical world of Fox & Friends thinks that this is no big whoop and attempts to curtail this problem are an infringement, by the Obama administration and Michelle Obama, on personal freedom. As such, Fox & Friends provides happy validation (War on Health) for those who oppose new guidelines for health school meals - even to the point of praising the nutritional value of sugar laden chocolate milk. In attempting to allay concerns about the dangers of too much salt, they brought in a representative from - wait for it - "The Salt Institute." And now that the kids in Kansas are upset about healthier school lunches, Fox & Friends is on their side and to reinforce the message that unhealthy eating is good for your kids is - wait for it - the aforementioned representative, Lori Roman, from the Salt Institute. Only in the Orwellian world of Fox is school nutrition part of "the trouble with schools."
Read moreDavid Carr Demolishes 'Liberal Media Bias' Excuse For Romney's Fall - But Overlooks Its Winning Ways
You can barely turn on Fox News these days without hearing someone whine how the "liberal media bias" is to blame for Mitt Romney's falling poll numbers. David Carr, the New York Times' media critic, rightly demolishes that myth today in an editorial. But what he didn't contemplate is how the myth nonetheless serves some very useful Republican purposes regardless of its absurdity.
Read moreGot Irony? Brian Kilmeade Discusses Media Bias With Right Wing Partisan!
The talking heads on the so "fair & balanced" Fox News are always whining about media bias. So it was rather amusing to see Fox & Friends advance their narrative, that the mainstream media is "in the tank" for President Obama, with right wing columnist Mona Charen. And we know that she's not biased because her two books ("Useful Idiots: How Liberals Got it Wrong in the Cold War and Still Blame America First" and "Do-Gooders: How Liberals Harm Those They Claim to Help — and the Rest of Us") demonstrate some real journalistic objectivity. Just kidding.

On yesterday’s Cashin’ In, the topic was allowing students to finish high school in two years instead of four. Although the subject was couched as a benefit to students, it became pretty apparent that the panelists' real interest in the subject was to cut back on spending for education.
Read moreMegyn Kelly Pimps Limbaugh Conspiracy Theory?
In the alternate reality of GOP "boss" Rush Limbaugh, the man behind the infamous anti-Islamic You Tube video is being persecuted by the Obama administration. While there's no organized "Free Nakoula" movement, it appears that alleged Fox "news" host, Megyn Kelly, is very concerned about his fate and as such, seems to be attempting to generate some sympathy for him. During her interview with the crazed and inchoate professional Islamophobe, David Horowitz, the underlying theme of her presentation was that poor Nakoula was "dragged" from his home "in the middle of the night" by nefarious fascist forces of the LA police. On Friday, she went even further in what she seems to be characterizing as a miscarriage of justice while Fox's Peter Johnson Jr. suggested that it could be connected to the Obama administration. And Fox News says the librul media is biased? Really?
