O’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?
Read moreFox Would Rather Millions Die Than Open Up ‘Backdoor’ To Regulating Stoves
Fox & Friends didn’t just sneer at EPA-funded research into cleaner cookstove technology, they dismissed the dangers from present cookstoves and then fear mongered that the whole project was little more than a way to “just put a fist on your kitchen and what you can use” as Elisabeth Hasselbeck put it.
Read moreHannity Panel Praises The 'Common Sense' Of Cab Drivers Not Picking Up Black People
The Hannity show rounded up three white guests – each with a history of race baiting – to weigh in on Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban’s remarks about racial prejudice and crossing the street when he sees a black kid in a hoodie. Not surprisingly, all but one endorsed Cuban's views as “honest” and “based on statistics.”
Read moreFox Uses White House CIA Leak To Clear GOP In Valerie Plame Leak
As soon as the news broke that the White House had inadvertently released the name of the CIA station chief in Afghanistan, you could almost hear Fox News staffers rubbing their hands in glee in anticipation of the partisan hay they could make. The only problem? All that time they spent minimizing the seriousness of the Valerie Plame leak. But never fear, Fox dug the Plame leak out of its Bush-Scandal Memory Hole and found a way to make it a GOP twofer.
Read moreOn America's Newsroom: Dr. Mark Siegel Pimps Food Industry Propaganda To Attack Healthy School Lunches
As Media Matters reports, Fox News is leading the media charge in support of the GOP's attempt to weaken school nutrition standards which were promoted by Michelle Obama. On Tuesday, "Outnumbered" co-host Sandra Smith supported the Republican legislation with GOP talking points drawn up, in part, by the School Nutrition Association, a lobbying group which receives its money from big food suppliers such as Domino's Pizza and Coca-Cola. Today, on America's Newsrooom, Fox medical A-Team member and serial medical misinformer Dr. Marc Siegal pimped the same GOP/food industry talking points.
Read moreTodd Starnes Lies About Google Doodles
Fox News' ace culture clubber Todd Starnes has a close relationship with Jesus - the truth, not so much. In an effort to prove that all those snotty pants, liberal, West Coast types hate the military (and Jesus too) he wrote a little screed about how Google didn't do a Memorial Day "Doodle" honoring the military. He ends with this: "Google also chooses to ignore Christian holidays like Christmas. So they have a problem with G.I. Joe and Jesus? Imagine that." Once again, Toddles' pants and biscuits are on fire!!
Read moreBill O’Reilly Blackmails Mexico Over Jailed American
If you’ve been watching Fox News lately, you’ve probably seen the story of Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi who is in a Mexican jail after driving across the border – via a wrong turn, he says – with three guns. Mexican gun laws are very strict. Last night, Bill O’Reilly announced that if Tahmooressi is not released today, “we have something that Mexico is not going to like.”
Read moreO’Reilly Throws Stones At Hornaday’s Elliot Rodger Column From His Beyoncé-Obsessed Glass House
Bill O’Reilly and Bernie Goldberg ridiculed film critic Ann Hornaday’s Washington Post column tying Hollywood movies to Elliot Rodger’s horrific shooting rampage in Santa Barbara. I’d have no beef with that were it not for O’Reilly’s repeated complaints about the evil influences of Beyoncé’s music and videos lately. Which history he rewrote during this segment.
