Martha MacCallum Validates Anti-Immigrant Filmmaker's Xenophobia
As the mouthpiece of the paranoid, nativist crowd that sees immigrants as an insidious threat to the American way, Fox News does love paranoid, nativist "filmmaker" and Cliven Bundy fanboy Dennis Michael Lynch whose oeuvre is all about how scary immigrants are a threat to the American way. And despite its claim of fairness and balance, Fox talkers, especially Megyn Kelly, actually view him as credible and, worse, validate his not so thinly veiled racism. Megyn Kelly even pimped his possible presidential candidacy! Last Friday night, Fox anchor Martha MacCallum showed Lynch more Fox love. But during her discussion with a pro-immigration guest, she got very, uh, argumentative. Go figure!
Read moreFox Drops Dr. Ben Carson - What About Huckabee?
On Friday, Fox News announced it had dropped Dr. Ben Carson from its pool of paid contributors now that he has produced a self-promoting documentary in support of a presidential run. Over the weekend, Fox's media critic Howard Kurtz praised the move and suggested, albeit ever so timidly, that host Mike Huckabee should maybe be removed from the payroll, too.
Read moreThe Kelly File Whitewashes Immigration Vigilante’s Sleazy Behavior Out Of Its Flattering Report
Fox News’ Trace Gallagher put forth such a sanitized picture of immigration vigilante Jim Gilchrist last week that it would be funny if Gilchrist didn’t pose a real threat to the safety of both the Border Patrol and others. Gallagher seemed to care nothing about that threat.
Read moreGeraldo Wants Condoleezza Rice To Run For Office To Counteract ‘The Thug Ethic’ In ‘Minority Culture’
Fox’s Geraldo Rivera has endorsed Condoleeza Rice for office, though he didn’t say which office. He just thinks she’s such a refreshing change from “the thug ethic” pervadding the rest of black America.
Read moreSantorum Suggests Those Who Oppose Voting Restrictions Are Supporters Of Voter Fraud
Rick Santorum visited Fox News on Election Day to help talk up voter ID laws and other, similar restrictions. But Santorum gave Fox a bonus by not just promoting the laws but also by smearing their opponents as voter fraud supporters. Or worse.
Read moreFr. Jonathan Morris Attacks Humanist Seeking To Be Navy Chaplain
Professional Fox News Christians are constantly whining about how Christians get no respect; yet, they have no problem denigrating atheists at every turn. Not only does Fox not want atheists to be able to erect billboards; but they really don't want them to have their own military "chaplains" which Satan's minions have been requesting for several years. In 2011, Fox propaganda priest Fr. Jonathan Morris opined that those lobbying for atheists chaplains are engaging in politicking that "degrades" the military. In May of this year, the idea of atheist chaplains was derided on Outnumbered and America's Newsroom. This morning Fr. Jonathan Morris' Sunday Fox sermon continued the derision, only this time it was directed at a specific individual.
Read moreWhat Happened To Fox News’ Obsession With Ebola?
If you’ve been watching Fox News since Election Day, you might have noticed something has suddenly gone missing: their deathly fears – which they once seemed to have felt duty-bound to instill in every single viewer – over Ebola. Coincidentally, the panic seems to have dissipated just at the time that President Obama asked for emergency funds to fight the disease.
Read moreTodd Starnes Called Out For Lying - Again!
You would think that being a super Jesus loving, homo hating Christian, Todd Starnes would make an effort to observe that Commandment which admonishes Christians to not tell tall tales. But that whole "thou shall not lie" thing doesn't seem to be a problem for either Starnes or the "fair & balanced" Fox News which provides him with a platform from which to spew his lies and personal attacks which, in one case, resulted in death threats to those whom he slandered. His latest, uh, misrepresentation is a story about how an evil public school teacher gave a nasty Nation of Islam "handout" to the students - except, of course, that's not true. Sweet mercy!
Read moreWhy Fox’s Jesse Watters Has No Business Lecturing African Americans About Race
Yesterday, I wrote about Jesse Watters’ whitesplaining scold to African Americans for raising the “old, tired” subject of race. But even a quick look through the comments at Fox Nation, the website that Watters manages, proves that racism is alive and well right under Watters’ nose.
