John Stossel Upset Poor People Can’t Sell Their Kidneys And Other Organs
While Fox relentlessly attacks food stamps as some kind of evil, maybe they think the poor should make up the shortfall by selling their organs. That’s certainly what John Stossel seemed to suggest on Fox & Friends this morning when he argued for the privatization of organ donation – and ignored its disproportionate impact on the poor.
Read moreMike Huckabee's New Kids History Video Tackles War On Christmas
Just to make sure that America's conservative, Christian kids know that there is a War on Christmas, Mike Huckabee has just released the newest video in his collection of "history" DVD's for kids. The series, which allows young folks to learn the real history of this country, features a group of cartoon kids who travel back in time. In visiting the 70's, they learn that knife wielding African-American thugs, wearing "Disco" shirts, overran the country before St. Ronald Reagan restored law & order. Other DVD's teach that America is a "Christian Nation" and that George Bush captured OBL. The latest is something that Christmas warrior Bill O'Reilly would approve of - real historians, not so much.
Read moreFox Buries News That Their Latest Benghazi 'Witness' Credibility Has Been Destroyed
Considering how much Fox loves the Benghazi "scandal," you'd think it would be big news that their latest "revelation," a supposed eyewitness featured in a 60 Minutes story late last month, has completely fallen apart. But while Fox can't stop demanding President Obama provide "accountability" for his broken promise about Americans being able to keep their health insurance, the "fair and balanced" network doesn't seem to feel the need to do the same over their own false information.
Read moreBill O'Reilly Whines That Chris Christie Won't 'Submit' To A Factor Interview
File under the cry me a river category Bill O'Reilly's latest bit of umbrage over Chris Christie's refusal to appear on The Factor. Poor Bill just can't understand why Christie won't kiss Bill's ass ring. As reported by Politico, O'Reilly said, on CBS, that Christie "won’t submit to an interview with me." O'Reilly claimed that he's never seen Christie discuss policy, "under the spotlight," and cautioned Christie that "he’s going to have to get under it, whether it’s me or somebody else, but he has not come in.” Awww, poor Bill. Here's a tip for you, Bill - Christie, a man who doesn't suffer fools gladly, doesn't want to appear on your show. Man up and deal with it!
Read moreMegyn Kelly Can’t Stand Discussion About How ObamaCare Is Providing Health Insurance For The Uninsured
Recently, Megyn Kelly dismissed as “old news” the fact that millions are now able to get health insurance thanks to the Affordable Care Act (“ObamaCare”) in order to continue suggesting that President Obama should be impeached or forced out of office. Last night, Kelly sounded on the verge of hysteria as she demanded that guest Alan Colmes stop talking about the same thing – so that she could attack President Obama for having “committed a fraud to get this law passed.” Funny how talk of people getting health insurance always seems to bring out suggestions of impeachment on The Kelly File.
Read moreOn Fox & Friends: Franklin Graham Trashes 'Sinful' Gays While Lying About ENDA
If anybody is curious as to why fewer Americans are identifying as Christians, one needs only to listen to Franklin Graham, the son of Christian evangelist, Billy Graham. That opportunity presented itself, this morning, on America's morning Christian show otherwise known as Fox & Friends. Fox & Friends guest, Franklin Graham spoke about his father's mission and how that mission - surprise, surprise - will be honored in the form of a Fox News special hosted by the oh, so Christian Sean Hannity who has written, on Fox News Insider, a tribute to Graham. The pals sat in rapt attention as Franklin spoke of America's rejection of God and how support for the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (passed in the Senate today, yay) is an example of this God dumping. It got uglier. Not only did Graham describe gays as sexual sinners; but in discussing ENDA, as Jon Stewart said, in part, about Fox News, Graham "lied like a motherf**ucker."
Read moreFox News Campaigns Against Raising The Minimum Wage
On Tuesday’s Your World, Craig Smith, Chair of Swiss America, helped trash a ballot proposal in New Jersey raising the minimum wage a dollar an hour to $8.25 an hour, with cost of living adjustments yearly. Neil Cavuto made no secret of his opinion when he asked, “Do YOU have such guarantees where YOU work?”
Read moreIt's Official: Fox News' War On Christmas Season Has Begun
Although we've had a few sneak previews this year, Fox News Scrooges have finally finished unpacking their Christmas animosity from summer storage. They are ready to start the holiday season with a fresh round of attacks, divisiveness and, of course victimhood, as they go scouring the country for people who don't celebrate Christmas the way Fox thinks they should. This year, Santa's ambusher and Fox Nation editor, Jesse Watters, has provided a helpful map for Fox Hitler Youth elves to help track people he'd like to ridicule, smear, whatever. However, in a nice turnabout, a swarm of commenters have descended on the site to say this not exactly what Jesus would have wanted.
Read moreBill O'Reilly To Teens: Getting Naked 'Could Come Back To Bite You'
Despite Bill O'Reilly's belief that his "tips of the day" are sage pearls of wisdom that he so generously imparts to us mere mortal, they also serve to highlight how Bill can talk the talk but doesn't, or hasn't, walked the walk. That Bill doesn't practice what he preaches is reflected in his tip about ignoring "gutternsipes." The man who brought new meaning to the term "fuck it we'll do it live," gave us advice on venting anger. The man who specializes in personal attacks has advised us to be "magnanimous." And last week, he advised America's youth to keep their clothes on - a tip that showed us that, despite his persona as a devout Catholic traditionalist, O'Reilly is just a dirty, old man with a strange Miley Cyrus obsession. Bill's tip was also rich in irony considering that Bill O'Reilly is the man who brought new meaning to falafel and loofahs!
Read moreMegyn Kelly Validates Parents Who Oppose History Text Because - Islam!
That the "fair & balanced" Fox News plays to those who think that all you need to know about the 6,000 year old earth is in the bible was underscored, Tuesday night, when the "moderate and reasonable" Megyn Kelly actually, with a straight face, reported that -wait for it - some Florida parents want to tear out the pages, in an advanced placement history textbook, which discuss Islam! And this isn't the first time that Fox News has featured an agenda driven discussion about this text which, if certain Florida residents had their way, would be burnt in the town square because, OMG, it actually devotes a chapter to Islam and doesn't provide Christianity with the same amount of space. And now that these Christian parents, who fear creeping Sharia, are brandishing their pitchforks, Fox has their back. Kelly's "news" segment was amusing, however, as it showed that in cultivating ignorance, Fox News has some very fertile fields!
