Politico reports that Rupert Murdoch is still using Twitter to promote his advice to the Mitt Romney campaign. Although to listen to Fox News, you'd think Romney has already won the election, Murdoch seems to be getting jittery. As I've recently posted, Murdoch has been taking to Twitter to get out his advice and admonitions to the Romney campaign. Apparently, the Romney campaign doesn't appreciate it.

On yesterday’s Your World, Neil Cavuto brought back Mark Levin to attack Chief Justice Roberts comment on a report that Chief Justice John Roberts switched his vote on health care reform. Cavuto deliberately opened the floodgates by asking Levin, “You haven’t cooled down yet, have you?”

Yesterday, Eric Bolling provided a full and unopposed platform for what can only be described as a full frontal attack on Islam from filmmaker, Eric Bell, once a tolerant liberal, who now embraces full tilt hatred towards Islam. Today, "devout Catholic" Bolling, who has a history of anti-Muslim rhetoric, doubled down in allowing Bell, in two segments, to continue his hateful screed which, according to the Fox messaging chyrons, is "the truth about radical Islam." Today's "truth" had, as a bonus, the patented Islamophobic "creeping Sharia" meme. But as Fox & Friends is an "opinion" show on the otherwise "fair & balanced" "news" network, I guess it's all good...Here's one of today's Bolling hate segments.

Jon Stewart wisely said that "conservative victimization is the true genius of what Fox News has accomplished." And on Fox "News," there ain't no victim like a Christian victim. To hear what's said, on a regular basis from various Fox hosts, American Christians are the victims of persecution not seen since the days of lions snacking on Christians in the Coliseum. The reality, however, is very different in that the radical Christians, so beloved by Fox, are trying their godly best to foist their anti-gay, anti-reproductive rights "family values" on a country of religious and non-religious diversity. Last week (June 25th) St. Laura of the great-big-in-your-face-Christian-cross Ingraham hosted a discussion about the Obama administration's alleged "attack" on Christianity. In her articulation of all the patented persecuted Christian talking points, Ingraham did not disappoint.

In "Fear Incorporated," an investigatory report from the Center for American Progress, Fox News is described as an "echo-chamber" for Islamophobia in that many of Fox's guests promote anti-Islamic talking points aimed at fostering fear and loathing of Islam and Muslims. Much of the discussion has centered on how American mosques preach violence and how Islam is attempting to impose Sharia law in the US. Fox News has provided a safe haven for both its hosts and guests to "bash Islam with impunity." The bashing was non-stop during the Fox abetted "controversy" surrounding the so-called "Ground Zero Mosque."  On yesterday's Fox & Friends, in keeping with this fine tradition,  "devout Catholic" Eric Bolling interviewed a filmmaker who was once sympathetic to Tennessee Muslims who encountered local hostility over the building of a mosque. He has since done a total 180 and now hates Islam. Put it this way, if this guest described Catholicism in the same terms that he did Islam, Bolling, who once kicked an atheist off his show, would have cut his mic! But Fox News says it's all true!

Bill O’Reilly was less than gracious tonight as he addressed calls to honor his pledge to “apologize for being an idiot” if the ObamaCare mandate were to be upheld by the Supreme Court as a tax. In the wake of the Supreme Court doing exactly that last week, let’s just say that O’Reilly did not exactly take his own medicine like a man. In fact, he behaved so childishly, he got a lecture from Bernard Goldberg to apologize, "smile and move on."

Fox News’ crackpot psychiatrist, Dr. Keith Ablow, has come up with what host Megyn Kelly called a “very interesting” theory about how ObamaCare is not only psychologically destructive but will set off a domino effect leading to riots in the streets.

You know how Fox News yells “class warfare” the moment someone talks about income disparity? Apparently, it’s OK to complain about someone else’s wealth when it’s Jon Stewart earning the big bucks. Fox & Friends, along with the Daily Caller’s Jamie Weinstein, thought it was big proof of Stewart’s hypocrisy to sneer about Stewart’s earnings and the news that he’s supposedly “on track” to being worth more than Mitt Romney. Of course, they missed Stewart’s main point, which is not that Romney is rich, per se, but that his favor-the-wealthy policies are self-serving while Stewart supports ones that are not.

Todd Starnes is not your father's Rockefeller Republican. He is, rather, part of the new breed of rabidly right wing Republicans who, whilst braying about their freedom, seek to curtail rights for minorities, women, and gays. As a member of the radical right, Starnes embraces the kind of paranoia once reserved for communists. In addition to fearing creeping Sharia and the "gay agenda," Starnes seems to have embraced Jim Crow stereotypes of African-Americans as lawless barbarians - stereotypes that are still promoted by white supremacists. Last year, he tweeted that blacks were rioting at Burger King. The story that he linked to did not mention race. Now, on his Facebook, Starnes says that living in NY City is dangerous. After noting that the mainstream media is ignoring the story, he links to a World Net Daily article "Black Mobs Now Beating Jews in NY." Along with WND (and the Murdoch owned NY Post), this story is featured on a number of white supremacist websites including the Council of Conservative Citizens. Can we talk race baiting?

In the wake of the Supreme Court’s upholding of health care reform, On The Record’s “liberal” host Greta Van Susteren wondered, “What is the Tea Party planning now?” Had Van Susteren done a simple Google search, she probably would have found out at least one prominent Tea Party member is up to some scary stuff – like talking insurrection against the federal government. Instead, we got a puff piece from Griff Jenkins.
