Fox News Ratings Take A Big Dive
Don't cry for Fox News just yet - because they are still the ratings juggernaut compared to the other cable news stations. But their May ratings just hit a 12-year low among those ever-desirable 25-54 year olds.
Read moreBob Beckel Tells America: Time To Stop Talking About Benghazi!
Fox’s Bob Beckel is on a roll. Yesterday, I admired his liberal mojo when he called out his colleagues’ “treasonous,” “abysmal and disgusting” treatment of President Obama. Today, he was on fire over Hillary Clinton and the phony Benghazi scandal.
Read morePhil Robertson: I’m A Republican Because ‘They’re Not Endorsing Perversion’
Duck Dynasty’s bigoted, homophobic Phil Robertson is now an official GOP hero. He was not only invited to speak at yesterday’s Republican Leadership Conference – and “brought the house down,” according to Sean Hannity – but Robertson followed that up with a double segment on the Hannity show. There he doubled down on his disgust at "perversion," which I think we can all agree is a code word for "gay."
Read moreBill O'Reilly: 'Sex Change Persons' Commit Crimes To Get Free Gender Reassignment Surgery!
Bill O'Reilly is an angry, aging conservative white guy. And while we don't know if Bill O'Reilly's audience is white, we do know that its median age is 72.1 and this would suggest that there just might be more than a few angry, white conservatives who are O'Reilly fans. Bill's Barcalounger Brigade, most likely, consists of folks who grew up in the halcyon days when women and minorities knew their place and gays led lives of quiet, closeted desperation. Transgender issues were certainly not spoken of and if they were, the terms perversion and demonic possession were probably utilized. And while some older folks might have gotten over the ignorant insularity of their upbringing, it's apparent that the Holy Ghost inspired Bill hasn't. As demonstrated by O'Reilly's (who doesn't "cast aspersions) latest attack on the transgender community, his fear and loathing render him incapable of even uttering the word "transgender."
Read moreFox Psychiatrist Ablow: Obama ‘Has It In For The American Public’
Fox’s Dr. Keith Ablow – the psychiatrist who probably could use a good shrink – was the alleged “one lucky guy” on Outnumbered yesterday. And once again, he did not let a little fact like never having examined President Obama get in the way of psychoanalyzing Obama’s decisions to “disempower” the United States.
Read morePalin: Obama Doesn’t Understand The Mission Of The Military
Sarah Palin had a new opportunity to show off her famous foreign-policy mojo tonight when she appeared on the Hannity show and lectured President Obama about the things he doesn’t understand about our military and doesn’t love enough about America. From the woman who never seems to open her mouth in public without spewing hate about our country.
Read moreO’Reilly’s Threat To Mexico Revealed!
Yesterday, I posted about Bill O’Reilly’s not-so-thinly veiled threat to Mexico if they don’t submit to his demands to release American Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi from jail. Tahmooressi, you may recall, was arrested for driving into the country – mistakenly, he says – with three guns. Last night, O’Reilly revealed how he plans to make the country submit. You know, the way he got them to bend to his will over another jailed American.
Read moreBill O'Reilly: Elliot Rodger's Rampage Had Nothing To Do With Misogyny, White Privilege And Those Who Say So Are Liberal Loons!
I think it's safe to say that if Elliot Rodger had been a Muslim, Bill O'Reilly would have described his killing spree as an act of domestic terrorism inspired by the teachings of Islam. If he had been an African-American O'Reilly (and Greg Gutfeld) would have blamed what he believes to be a lack of moral values in a thuggish black community and, of course, hip-hop music. But despite the reality that 75% of mass shooters are white, as was Rodger, O'Reilly isn't talking about deficiencies in white culture. And despite the reality that Rodgers was part of a dark, internet culture of woman-hating, O'Reilly gives Rodger a free pass on that, too. In last night's Talking Points Memo, O'Reilly advanced the notion that Rodger was just a lone, mentally unstable gunman, nothing more to see here move along. But given that Bill O'Reilly is a poster child for woman hating and white privilege, should we be surprised?
