On Tuesday (6/12/12), Grover Norquist spoke to Your World’s Neil Cavuto about North Dakota’s vote to possibly eliminate property taxes (the measure was rejected). The subject switched to income taxes, which Norquist is famously against.

Reality Star Bristol Palin Just Wants People To Stop Talking About Her Family (Yeah, Right)

Posted by Ellen · June 15, 2012 12:33 AM · 4 reactions

Bristol Palin is shaping up to be every bit the attention whore her mother is. And just as dishonest. Last night, during an interview on Hannity, Palin whined that it is “definitely” hard for her to be talked about and in the public eye. This, not long after she told Fox & Friends that if she knew her upcoming reality TV show that was designed to be about her life as a single mother would be “so much” about her, she would have reconsidered. But that reticence did not prevent her from remaining open to running for political office some day.

The Daily Show Scoops On The Record On Florida Voter Roll Purge

Posted by Ellen · June 14, 2012 9:30 PM · 1 reaction

Greta Van Susteren was no lapdog during her interview with Florida Governor Rick Scott last night. She asked some hard-hitting, penetrating questions about his purging of voters from the Florida voter rolls. Interestingly, Scott could not provide a good explanation as to how he knew the people he had purged were not citizens if he didn’t have the roster of citizens he was suing the Department of Homeland Security to get. Even more interestingly, Van Susteren suddenly ran out of time before she was able to complete her tough questioning. But she never got to the points The Daily Show made perfectly clear: that the voter fraud Scott is fear mongering about is a non-existent problem and he's putting unreasonably onerous restrictions on registration.

Hannity’s Quote-In-Depth-Unquote Look at Elizabeth Warren: The Same Old Smear All Over Again

Posted by Margarita · June 14, 2012 6:13 PM · 2 reactions

“Who is Elizabeth Warren: An in-depth look” promised the Fox News web site. But Hannity’s segment last night on the Democratic candidate for the Massachusetts Senate certainly wasn’t “in-depth;” it concentrated entirely on one thing – whether or how she and Harvard exploited her claim to Cherokee ancestry.

Rush Says Nuns Are Feminazis - Where Is Fox News' Outrage?!

Posted by Priscilla · June 14, 2012 3:37 PM · 1 reaction

Fox talkers have frequently expressed outrage over Nazi references made by those on the other side of the ideological aisle. Bill O'Reilly said that "it's bad." Fox talkers have also expressed outrage over Bill Maher's (Identified as "Pig Maher" on Fox Nation) snide remarks about conservative women and Christians. Yet, Fox's beloved Rush Limbaugh says that the American nuns, who are pushing back against a Vatican reprimand regarding their lack of enthusiasm for the bishop's crusade against gay marriage and abortion, "have gone feminazi on everybody." Really?

Greg Gutfeld's Newest Abortion Joke Isn't Very Funny

Posted by Priscilla · June 14, 2012 2:20 PM · 3 reactions

Greg Gutfeld's rise to fame seems to be his comedic stylings. But what kind of joker would make jokes about abortion except to, perhaps, promote the anti-choice meme that those who have abortions are worthy of shame and scorn - a meme that Gutfeld has expressed, on several occasions, on Fox. Gutfeld, a "pro-life" Catholic, once said that teenagers who have abortions are "morally inept." He also made the bizarre comment that women who support abortions are supporting the right to abort their grandchildren. Last week Gutfeld doubled down on his criticism of abortion with what he described as a "joke" but what was, in effect, just more bizarre, pointless, pro-life propaganda from the bizarre and pointless Gufeld.

Carlson Walks Off Fox & Friends Over Kilmeade's Sexist Joke

Posted by Ellen · June 14, 2012 12:51 PM · 9 reactions

Apparently, Brian Kilmeade's little joke, "“Women are everywhere. We’re letting them play golf and tennis now. It’s out of control," didn't sit well with Gretchen Carlson. She got up, told Kilmeade he could read the headlines, and walked off the set.

More Stuff About Cardinal Dolan Not Discussed On Fox News

Posted by Priscilla · June 14, 2012 10:03 AM · 3 reactions

NY's Cardinal Dolan gets lots of face time on Fox News - a "fair & balanced" media outlet which has provided Dolan with extensive coverage that appeared to validate his animosity towards President Obama regarding the HHS contraception mandate and the ensuing lawsuits filed by Catholic entities against the administration. However, as I reported, Fox seems to be avoiding any discussion of Dolan's payouts to pedophile priests when he was archbishop of Milwaukee. And now that NY legislators are trying to relax laws governing statutes of limitations on sex abuse crimes, Fox's favorite prelate, Cardinal Dolan is lobbying against changes in the law.

Malkin Smears Juan Williams’ Professionalism

Posted by Ellen · June 14, 2012 1:45 AM · 12 reactions

Michelle Malkin was especially hateful and unprofessional last night in her debate with Juan Williams - her Fox News colleague. Although the discussion was supposed to be about the leak of national security secrets and Eric Holder, Malkin seemed more interested in maligning Williams – mocking him for saying he’s a “real reporter” as opposed to a blogger (which she took personally), making faces and in a special irony, going on to complain about “snotty condescension” from journalists like him. Apparently, our little hatriot can’t take what she makes a living at dishing out. Again.

The Eric Holder Witch Hunt Is An Opening Act For The 2012 Election

Posted by Ellen · June 13, 2012 8:20 PM · 8 reactions

It’s been almost two years since I wrote about Fox News’ witch hunt against Eric Holder. In 2010, the witch hunt was focused on a bogus accusation that he had refused to prosecute members of the New Black Panther Party for voter intimidation because they were black. I said at the time that he was being set up as a voter-fraud boogeyman – meaning that if a midterm election or elections results were close and the Republicans saw political hay to be made out of yelling “voter fraud!” or “voter intimidation!” they would have trotted out Holder as Exhibit A to racially fear monger their case. There are even more reasons to think that while Republicans – and Fox – howl about document releases in the Fast and Furious scandal and special prosecutors for national security leaks, they’ve got at least one eye on using Holder to help them yell “voter fraud!” this November, too. UPDATED.
