Chris Wallace: How Much Longer Does Government Need To Keep Putting 'A Thumb On The Scale' On Behalf Of Minorities?
Fox News Sunday looked ahead to the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington and Dr. Martin Luther King's iconic "I Have a Dream" speech with Fox's typical approach to African Americans these days - by race baiting. In this case, Wallace made his animosity clear when he suggested that African Americans have received enough "special treatment" and that it was time to stop "putting a thumb on the scale" on their behalf.
Read moreFox Cherry-Picks Black Racist At DHS, Shrugs Over White Racist In Their Midst
Fox News has found itself another African American to fixate on as a racist and – for extra old, white viewer points – attach to the Obama administration. In this case, it’s a Department of Homeland Security manager who runs a website advocating a race war against whites. Terrible, yes. But Fox News’ outrage is a bit suspect given, in just one case, how it barely noticed Jack Hunter, a white, Republican racist working for Rand Paul, who contributes to Tucker Carlson’s Daily Caller and has appeared numerous times on Fox Business.

Attention Fox News interns: Here are the emails we received last week from some of your clueless viewers who can't tell us apart. As always, the names and other identifying information have been redacted to protect the ignorant. Grammar, spelling and punctuation have been left intact.
Read moreFox News' Latest Disingenuous Attack On The Poor: Welfare Pays More Than Minimum Wage
A recent FoxNews.com article called, "Study: Welfare pays more than minimum wage in most states" is little more than another not-quite-honest attempt to rile its readers and demonize the poor with suggestions that they are living high on the hog by freeloading off hard-working taxpayers.
Read moreFox News.Com Buries Story On MLK Anniversary March
The 50th anniversary of the famous MLK speech, that was given to the multitudes who marched for economic and civil rights in 1963, will be honored, today, in Washington DC. Those who are concerned about the same issues are gathering at the Lincoln Memorial to honor Dr. King and listen to speeches from Civil Rights leaders and others who share the dream. The "lamestream" media is providing considerable coverage. MSNBC ("Fifty years later, thousands rally in Washington for MLK’s dream") and CNN ("MLK taught one class his entire life") have secondary lede stories about the march. USA Today has a live feed. On of ABC's rotating ledes is a photo of MLK at the '63 march with the headline "50 years later march on Washington honors King." Meanwhile, Fox News has, buried in with the third tier "Latest News" which also features Todd Starnes, "Wis. schools teach children about masturbation," this very short headline: March on Washington to focus on Civil Rights" which links to the story of one of today's marchers.
Read moreSarah Palin Lectures Viewers About The Importance Of Hard Work
Is there anything more unintentionally hilarious than Sarah Palin lecturing TV viewers about the value of hard work? Palin - the former VP candidate who became famous for her intellectual laziness, who subsequently walked out of her job as governor of Alaska, quit the bus tour that was teased as a precursor to a 2012 presidential candidacy, quit her job at Fox News because it was supposedly important to broaden her horizons and then quit her own quitting to return to Fox, as a contributor, not a full-time employee - THAT Sarah Palin was the person Fox News host (and Palin BFF) Greta Van Susteren turned to for for her special brand of insight into remarks by Ashton Kutcher about how opportunities comes from working hard and a good work ethic.
Read moreFox & Friends Showcase Miami Dolphin Who Snubbed White House Invite
After Fox Nation hyped the “snubs” of three (out of “about three dozen”) of the 1972 Miami Dolphins who were invited to the White House, it’s no surprise that Fox & Friends should host at least one of them with the hope of getting him to thoroughly air why he objects to Barack Obama’s presidency so much. Unfortunately for the Curvy Couch Crew, their guest, Bob Kuechenberg, was unable to offer a coherent explication of his policy differences. (H/T News Hounds regular, d d)
Read moreCavuto Brings On Pediatrician To Fear Monger About Affordable Care Act
On Your World, Neil Cavuto spoke to pediatrician Dr. Arie Friedman about the Affordable Care Act. In case you didn’t have an idea in advance of how the segment would be framed, the headline of the FoxNews.com video gave you a hint: ObamaCare spiraling into ‘worse and worse situation’?
Read moreFr. Jonathan Morris Spotted At Telluride Mushroom Festival!
When doing his weekly Sunday shtick on Fox & Friends, Fr. Jonathan Morris presents as a humble parish priest. But let me tell ya, he's a playa. He was in Cardinal Dolan's entourage during the Papal Conclave. During the harsh NY winter, he maintains his youthful tan at various golf courses in sunny climes. Recently he luxuriated near Lake Tahoe at a "writer's retreat." And last week-end he was in Telluride, Colorado where he officiated at two wedding ceremonies for the same couple - one in church, the other on a mountain top. And this wasn't just an ordinary wedding. The bride, a Wall Street executive, is also the daughter of a major Wall Street tycoon. Father travels in some pretty high rolling circles. But it appears that he wasn't spending all his time, in Telluride, on his knees (but then again, he is very devout!) as he was seen, by Bill O'Reilly paid stalker, the intrepid Jesse Watters, at the Telluride Mushroom Festival. Whaaat!!!!!!!
