Megyn Kelly Endorses Racist Comments Captured By Xenophobic Filmmaker Dennis Lynch
Screw poor women and babies that need food through a WIC program that has been curtailed as a result of the government "slim down." In the alternate reality of the right wing, the most egregious result of the shut down of government services was the closing off of a veteran's monument - a closing that allowed members of the GOP crazy caucus to have a great photo-op with the vets who broke through the barricades. And because immigration activists were allowed to have a rally on National Mall, right wing veterans are mad as hell. Their righteous wrath was documented by wingnut "filmmaker" Dennis Lynch whose oeuvre consists of xenophobic pieces of paranoia, pimped on Fox, about how those "illegals" are sneaking into America to slit your throat. So are we surprised that he would be warmly welcomed by new opinion show host Megyn Kelly who was muy sympatico with the white, racist veteran featured in Lynch's video....
Read moreFox News Mailbag - 10/13/2013 Edition
We gathered quite a collection of emails for Fox last week. We've got complaints that Fox was off the air in the Shenandoah Valley, a decent suggestion for how to solve our budget crisis (really), someone who did not enjoy Megyn Kelly's interview with Ted Cruz and more. Check 'em out, after the jump!
Read moreFox's Ed Henry Walks Out Of White House Press Briefing After Snub
Fox News' White House Correspondent Ed Henry was, apparently, miffed that he was not going to be able to ask one of his gotcha questions. So, with the same good sportsmanship we've seen so much of from his Republican home team, he walked out.
Read moreElisabeth Hasselbeck Pimps Ken Cucccinelli's Candidacy For VA Governor
One of the top GOP right wing/Fox News memes is that there is no war on women and that all the anti-choice bills and attempts to defund Planned Parenthood are righteous attempts to save us women from our silly and slutty selves. The reality, however, is that there is a concerted effort to deprive women of the reproductive rights and chief among those who are trying to do this is Virginia gubernatorial candidate Ken Cuccinelli. His numbers, understandably, are abysmal among women. So given that Fox News is the first stop for on any Republican rehab tour, it wasn't surprising to see him on Fox & Friends where he was interviewed by new friend, Elisabeth let-the-poor-die-of-heat-exhaustion Hasselbeck who, in effect, provided him with his very own Fox News campaign ad.
Read moreMegyn Kelly Slobbers Over Extremist ‘Truckers For The Constitution’ Protesters
Not surprisingly, that big trucker protest designed to “shutdown Obamacare and corruption in D.C.” was a bust. But it wasn’t for lack of favorable publicity on Fox News, especially from Megyn Kelly. She was wasn’t just friendly to one of the extremist protesters last night, she sounded as though she thought he was the best thing to happen to our country since Paul Revere.
Read moreElisabeth Hasselbeck: Air Conditioning And Cell Phones Are The ‘Ugly Side’ Of Welfare
I posted earlier about how Elisabeth Hasselbeck cast truth aside in order to attack President Obama and fear monger about Obamacare last night. The day before, she went after her fellow Americans who aren't as fortunate as she to make the big bucks lying and smearing on television. Hasselbeck “asked," “Do these folks really need to be on welfare?” Then, after a clip of a few welfare recipients telling Fox’s John Stossel that they have air conditioning and cable TV, she praised his reporting for “exposing the ugly side of entitlements.”
Read moreFr. Jonathan Morris Says Screw U, God Hating Atheist And Jew?
While America is religiously very diverse, Fox News is, like its news staff, mostly monochromatic when it comes to religion. Unlike Fox News, MSBNC doesn't pretend to be "fair & balanced." Yet, on "Morning Joe," the "faith on Friday's" segment features representatives of all faiths while the "fair & balanced" Fox features, almost exclusively, a Catholic priest for its Sunday religion segment. Fr. Jonathan Morris is a reliable mouthpiece for the talking points of the GOP, religious right, and the Catholic bishops' views on reproductive issues - immigration and poverty, not so much. Not surprisingly, Morris supports those Christians who are praying that the Supreme Court will overturn a 2nd Circuit Court decision regarding prayer before public meetings. Fresh from a Florida Catholic Charities fund raiser and before his jaunt to Rome with Cardinal Dolan's entourage, Fr. Morris explained it all for us and in so doing was able to engage in standard Fox atheist bashing with a dash of thinly veiled anti-Semtism. Bless you father, for you have propagandized!
Read moreElisabeth Hasselbeck Blames Obama For GOP-Coined ‘Obamacare’ Name
Was Elisabeth Hasselbeck shockingly ignorant or dishonest when she announced on Fox News that the nickname for the Affordable Care Act, “Obamacare,” was a conceit of vanity by the Democrats? In fact, it was a term cooked up by Republicans to mock the ACA – and then adopted by President Obama. I have the same question about her baseless fear mongering that alleged Obamacare "will topple our entire society financially."

Yes, it’s time for Fox News to play the Christmas victims again – and this year, Megyn Kelly has suited up and is ready to join the crusade in prime time.
Read moreBill O'Reilly, Jesse Watters Mentally Masturbate Over So Called 'Nudity Week' At Brown University
Whenever Bill O'Reilly needs to remind his audience of the debauchery in higher education, he sends out his stalker, Jesse Watters, to provide video which not only documents the degeneracy but provides some nice "traditional" titillation for O'Reilly who, being a single Catholic, can't have sinful sex. Watters recently stalked Brown University for some material to take back to Bill for more shits and giggles. Watters, no stranger to Brown, asked students about a college event, "Nudity in the Upspace," an event that features lectures and events which "explore nudity in all its forms." As Bill and his aging fan base associate nudity with sex, Watters was sent to Brown to do his trademark smirking while asking salacious and judgmental questions. And in so doing, Watters underscored why Brown students, after his last Brown escapade, was described as a "creepy, ambushing, stalker lunatic."
