Heather Nauert Doesn’t Want To Reveal Fox’s Ratio Of Liberal To Conservative Pundits
Bill O’Reilly was so sure Fox truly is fair and balanced that he asked Fox host Heather Nauert how many liberal pundits are employed by Fox vs. how many conservatives. While Nauert proudly announced that 19 liberals are on the Fox payroll, she did not want to compare that with the number of conservatives.

Yesterday, Steve Moore, chief economist for the Heritage Foundation wildly inflated the cost of educating 50,000 undocumented children this upcoming school year. Even though Moore's own employer found otherwise, host Neil Cavuto did not set the record straight.
Read moreHannity Prods Prime Minister Netanyahu To Attack President Obama As Too Muslim Friendly
Sean Hannity spent almost a full hour on a lapdog interview with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu last night. The whole thing served as little more than an infomercial for Israel’s attacks on Gaza. Hannity’s slobbering admiration for Netanyahu was bad enough when you contrast that with his blatant hostility toward President Obama. But Hannity deliberately baited the foreign prime minister to smear our American president for giving foreign aid to Egypt and Palestine. Can you just imagine the Hannity hissy fit if an MSNBC host went to any foreign country and tried to get its leader to malign President George W. Bush?
Read moreFox’s Stirewalt Uses Iraqi Airstrikes As An Excuse To Swipe At Obama
As we waited for President Obama’s announcement tonight that he has authorized limited airstrikes on ISIS in Iraq, The Kelly File called on Fox’s digital politics editor, Chris Stirewalt, to chat about the difficult choices facing President Obama. But Stirewalt deflected and used his airtime to take swipes at Obama over Russia, Gaza, Libya, Syria, his approval ratings, his rhetorical habits and more. Substitute host Shannon Bream never objected.
Read moreThe Five's Catholics Diss Catholic Teaching On Immigration?!
The Five's Catholics support Catholic positions which correspond to right wing ideology, such as reproductive rights and the ACA birth control mandate. Eric Bolling and Kimberly Guilfoyle frequently allude to their faith. But they don't have the same zealotry when it comes to immigration, an issue on which their Church is quite liberal. Last week (7/30), The Five attacked Rep. Nancy Pelosi for her commentary on immigration which referenced the National Conference of Catholic Bishops. Rather than examine what the Pope and Catholic leaders have said about the issue, the crew used her statement to push anti-immigration talking points and defend themselves against charges that they hate immigrant children and are bad Christians. Oh, nooo.....
Read moreBill O'Reilly Promotes Now Discontinued 'Prayer Discount'
Although Bill O'Reilly has no breaking the commandments about bearing false witness and telling lies, he does consider himself a man of faith. So, in the spirit of Christian fellowship, he used his Tuesday "tip of the day" to encourage his viewers to stop by a diner, in North Carolina, for a discount if they say "grace" before their meal. But sadly, for Bill, this practice (about which Bill wasn't totally accurate) has been discontinued due to - wait for it - those nasty atheists at the Freedom From Religion Foundation so odds are that we'll hear more about this on Fox!
Read moreColbert Takes A Hilarious Dig At Hannity
Stephen Colbert took up the subject of the viral "apparently boy" video with a hilarious twist last night. Let's just say that Sean Hannity is probably one of the few people who wasn't laughing.
Read moreFox’s Payne Attacks Walgreens' ‘Shameful’ Decision To Stay In The U.S.A.
Fox Business’ Charles Payne took Fox’s cheerleading for corporations leaving the U.S. one step further yesterday: by attacking Walgreens for deciding to stay.
Read moreHannity Ignores Deaths Of Gaza Children, Complains Israeli Children Can’t Play Outside
Sean Hannity has been in Israel this week giving Fox News viewers all the pro-Israel perspective he can squeeze into a one-hour show. Frankly, much of it has been interesting. And as a Jew, myself, I can sympathize with what the Israelis are going through. But when nearly 400 children have been killed in Gaza, it seems heartless and out of touch to spend a segment lamenting how Israeli children are suffering by being forced to play indoors while completely ignoring the children suffering much worse in Gaza.
