Bill O’Reilly Fears Obama Is ‘Arrogantly’ Catering To Welfare Queens
Bill O’Reilly took an interesting report from the National Journal, “Why Obama Is Giving Up on Right-Leaning Whites,” and ran with it to suggest that Obama is giving up on all but the most radical of whites in order to favor people of color and “give them what they want.” Yup, the way O’Reilly interpreted the article, his worst fears about the 2012 election are coming true.

Fox News is still clobbering the competition in the ratings department. But Roger Ailes has got to be mindful of the bad news that looms like a Republican favorability poll. UPDATED.
Read moreKooiman And Jerrick Help Present Social Security As A Ponzi Scheme
On Fox & Friends Weekend yesterday, co-hosts Anna Kooiman and Mike Jerrick did their best to help right-wing guest Star Parker discredit Social Security and Medicare as some kind of outdated Ponzi Scheme that saps Americans. Then they helped her showcase her call for privatization.
Read moreMichelle Malkin Feeds Fox News Propaganda Re F-16's To Egypt
The newborn Fox News propaganda meme about the horror of sending F-16's to Egypt is alive and kicking. The opposition to the military aid, approved when Mubarek was Egypt's leader, was articulated on Hannity, Justice with Jeanine, America's News HQ and two segments of Fox & Friends. Last week, Michelle Malkin added her sage commentary (just kidding) to Fox's "fair & balanced" (just kidding) presentation of the issue on another Hannity segment that was totally biased (not kidding). It's the same old, same old snarling, snarky stuff from Malkin - but as a case study in wide-eyed histrionic Obama derangement syndrome, it's amusing.
Read moreBill O'Reilly - History Storekeeper!
Bill O'Reilly is quite - ah - diversified. In addition to earning his living peddling personal attacks, propaganda, and lies, he also offers his folks access to selected historical documents such as an original letter from Abraham Lincoln, retailing for a mere $18,500 and a more reasonably priced signed photo of Gerald Ford selling for $495. Those interested in this memorabilia, at Bill's "History Store," should check out other sources before buying Bill's stuff because the same Ford photo is being sold for $325 on another site. Another site has a different Ford pic for only $250.00. And rather than donate the proceeds to charity, it's apparent that ole Bill is pocketing the profit. Anyway, just another fun fact about Bill O'Reilly.
New Faces at Fox News, More of the Same Messages
Fox’s latest Neilsen numbers are its worst since 2001, and in prime time it’s losing ground to MSNBC in that crucial 25-54 age bracket. But if the Fox brass is considering any changes to its modus operandi, you can't tell from some of the recent additions to its stable – particularly Erick Erickson of Red State, and radio host Mark Levin, both of whom are dyed-in-the-wool right wingers.
Read moreChris Wallace Lambastes NRA’s Wayne LaPierre
Chris Wallace didn’t just grill National Rifle Association head Wayne LaPierre today during Fox News Sunday, he chewed him up and spit him out at the same time. In an almost 15-minute interview, Wallace did not pull any punches, did not fear monger about the Second Amendment and gave LaPierre quite a talking to about LaPierre’s “ridiculous” suggestion that kids in school are subject to the same kinds of dangers as the Obama daughters.
Read moreBill O'Reilly Is Obsessed With Topless 'Nuns?'
As a loofah loving macho man, it's no surprise that Bill O'Reilly and his male "comedy" posse (Miller, Carolla, Gutfeld, McGuirk) are true soul brothas. Whenever Bill and his boys get together in Bill's TV locker room, there's a strong stench of testosterone and sound of towel snapping as the guys talk about cool stuff that includes denigrating liberal women like Sandra Fluke - or, as Miller refers to them, "babes," "chicks," and "gals." Such was the case during last week's "Miller Time" when O'Reilly and Dennis Miller got all giggly about Bill's latest obsession - topless "nuns." These bogus brides of Christ are Ukrainian women who protest at various venues wearing nun headgear while topless. The locker room humor, which included Dennis Miller's comparison of the "nuns" to Sandra Fluke, also included patented O'Reilly voyeuristic video. Ah, don't ya love the smell of testosterone in the evening!
Read moreIs Fox Trying To Start A Race War Over 'Django Unchained?'
Actor/comedian Donnell Rawlings discussed the film, "Django Unchained" with TMZ recently and jokingly said, "We shootin' white people in this movie. The black dude leaves with his girl into the sunset. There can be no happier movie than that." Fox Nation edited out the middle sentence for a headline giving the impression that only the "shootin' white people" was such a happy thought. They didn't make it clear that this was a joke, either. And they fronted the video with a still of Rawlings looking like Buckwheat. Predictably, their readers erupted with racist, n-word laden hatred. Either nobody bothered to moderate the comments days after they were posted or else Fox thought they were appropriate.
Read moreWhy Did Van Susteren Ask Gingrich To Explain Landrieu’s Comments About Fox?
If ever there was proof of a Fox News segment geared entirely toward attacking Democrats, rather than informing viewers, it was Greta Van Susteren’s interview the other night with Newt Gingrich purporting to “explain” why Senator Mary Landrieu joined President Barack Obama in publicly criticizing Fox News.
