Read moreCharles Krauthammer Uses Jeremiah Wright To Defend Steve Scalise!
In Fox News' pantheon of scary black men, Rev. Jeremiah Wright and Barack Obama, who accrued much of his scariness from his association with the pastor, top the chart. Ever since Obama's 2008 campaign, Fox News has used Rev. Wright, whose "God damn America" video was played 24 and 7 on Fox, to denigrate Obama at every turn. As late as 2012, Fox wall of genius Steve Doocy predicted that Wright would derail Obama's re-election. Flash forward to 2014 and Fox News is still playing the scary, black Jeremiah Wright card in order to attack the president and, as a special bonus, defend GOP Rep. Steve Scalise who palled around with white supremacists.

Read moreFox News Disses The Pope?
Fox News is facing quite the conundrum when it comes to covering Pope Francis. While Fox was in lockstep with past conservative popes, it isn't quite sure about the positions of the present Pope whose teachings don't fit the orthodoxy of the Christian right. The Pope's call for "redistribution" of wealth, an idea anathema to Christian capitalists, was met with a scolding from Sean Hannity. Official Foxpriest, Fr.
