Hannity Uses Ex-LAPD Cop Killer To Dishonestly Smear Liberals
Didn’t you just know that Sean Hannity would use the ex-LAPD alleged cop killer to attack the left? Like clockwork, he found a way: by deceptively highlighting suspect Christopher Dorner’s praise for Democrats and liberals – and “forgetting” all about his support for Republicans. This, during the same week that Hannity has been whining incessantly about deception elsewhere in the media. Then, for a crowning bit of hypocrisy, he and his “media watchdog” buddy, Brent Bozell, spent the next several minutes mewling about the “double standard” in the so-called liberal media.

Earlier this week, newly-minted Fox pundit Erick Erickson offered a jaw-dropping Tweet of support for a Dollar General employee who was charged with aggravated assault for hitting a child with her belt at least 25 times after the boy threw a cookie at her.
Read moreNo Questioning Jim DeMint’s Dubious Record On ‘Historically High Tax Revenues”
On the February 5 Your World, former Senator Jim DeMint, now President-elect of the Heritage Foundation, spoke about the President seeking more tax revenue. He said, “The federal government will receive record, historically high tax revenues this year, yet we’ve doubled spending over the last 10 years. It’s a spending problem. The President is not willing to cut spending at this point.” Sound familiar? DeMint made a similar claim the year before and it was rated “false” by PolitiFact. But guest host Stuart Varney offered no challenge.
Read moreMichelle Malkin Thinks Chris Rock, Jamie Foxx, Sandra Fluke Are Crazy? Really?
In addition to doing Sundays with Fr. Jonathan Morris, Fox & Friends features Thursdays with Michelle Malkin, a segment during which Ms. Malkin treats the viewers to her patented eye popping, lip curling, and toxic commentary. She hates those, especially the president, who don't conform to her radical right wing world view. We get it. This morning, she droned (badaboom) on about what she feels is Obama's and the mainstream media's hypocrisy regarding drone policy. After that little rant she moved on to smear Chris Rock, Jamie Foxx, and Sandra Fluke for what she perceives is delusional Obama worship. While her criticisms of Rock and Foxx (scary black men who admire the president!) were based on actual quotes, her statement about Fluke appears to be fabricated out of nothing more than Michelle's unhinged mind. Ah, don't ya love the smell of crazy in the morning!
Read moreFox Distorts Its Own Guest’s Comments In Order To Deny Climate Change
This morning, Fox & Friends hosted author Zac Unger, who moved to the Canadian Arctic to research the supposedly dwindling, on-its-way-to-extinction polar bears, only to find out their numbers are increasing. But while Unger made it clear that the reason for the increase is a ban on hunting and that the bears still face problems from global warming, Fox News did its best to turn the segment into an “inconvenient truth for environmentalists.”
Read moreO'Reilly And Miller Joke About Sending A Drone To 'Get Rid' Of 'Gangnam Style' Psy
"Funnyman" Dennis Miller joined Bill O'Reilly last night to discuss a North Korean YouTube film showing New York blowing up (which has subsequently been removed from YouTube because of a copyright infringement). Ever the tough-talking chickenhawks, they responded by saying a drone should be sent to "get rid of" South Korean pop star Psy.
Read moreDick Morris Tries To Present Himself as a Pundit in Piers Morgan Interview
Ex-Fox pollster Dick Morris' confident prediction of a Romney landslide last election is something he’ll probably never live down, but he’s trying. Last night he was with Piers Morgan on CNN, giving his first interview since leaving Fox (compete video is at this Mediaite link). While admitting he had been “wrong at the top of my lungs,” he spent the interview either blaming a hurricane, saying everyone else had got it wrong too, or telling the Republican party how it should reposition itself (in case anyone's listening).
Read moreDoocy Claims His Hillary Clinton 'Facelift' Question Referred To Her Website
On Fox & Friends this morning, Steve Doocy made what appeared to be a sexist dig at Hillary Clinton - by saying, "Face lift, perhaps?" about the "glamorous" new photo of her on a website. But later, after being criticized by "lefty blogs," Doocy tweeted that he was referring to the site getting a facelift.
Read moreSean Hannity Helps Plug George Zimmerman’s Defense Fund
Sean Hannity hasn’t forgotten his pal George Zimmerman, victim of reverse racial prejudice. Yesterday, a Florida judge denied Zimmerman’s request to delay his trial for the murder of the unarmed teenager Trayvon Martin – and Hannity didn’t need defense attorney Mark O’Mara to know that a miscarriage of racial justice had taken place! So before bringing on O’Mara to talk about how badly Zimmerman needs donations – and to let viewers know where to go to donate – Hannity did his best to whip up his viewers into some racially righteous indignation at Zimmerman’s racial victimhood.
Read moreFr. Jonathan Morris Says No Free Birth Control For You!
"Fair & Balanced" Fox News provided extensive coverage for religious opposition to the HHS birth control mandate. Last week, the Obama administration proposed a compromise and the bishops are cautiously optimistic. Not so the religious right, the anti-choice lobby, and certain conservative Catholics who feel that the religious exemptions should include employers who believe that birth control is a big, ole mortal sin. So it's not surprising that as the mouthpiece for the religious right, Fox "News" has their back with the same kind of support and validation that was provided for the Catholic Bishops. And who better to provide support for employers who hate women object to paying for birth control than Fox's resident priest, Fr. Jonathan Morris who, in the past, has used his Fox pulpit to say that the mandate is "offensive" and that he is willing to die while fighting it. On Sunday, Fox & Friends provided validation for the views of those who still oppose the mandate - views articulated by Fox's one true priest, Fr. Morris!
