Hannity Helps Cain Hype His Latest Self-Promotion Gimmick
Less than a week after Herman Cain appeared on the Hannity show and hyped his “Solutions Revolution,” he was back on Hannity for a double segment that included not a word about that “new movement.” This time, Cain was there to respond to Sean Hannity’s interview with Cornel West (except that in Fox’ typical “fair and balanced” way, Cain got two segments to West’s one) and to promote some new “unconventional announcement” and endorsement that was too big and too important to discuss on the Hannity show. In fact, it was too big and too important to include just one person, apparently – except Cain himself. It just so happens that he’ll reveal the big news at an upcoming speech he was able to talk about. Nevertheless, the details Cain leaked sounded suspiciously – just as in last week’s big announcement – like it's going to be “9-9-9” all over again.

Bill O'Reilly is no fan of the ACLU. Not only does he think they're terrorists and traitors; but he once stated that Hitler would have been a member of the ACLU. As the saying goes, you ain't seen nothing yet. Now that the NY ACLU has requested documents pertaining to the Nassau County Police Department's alleged assistance in what appears to be some serious "cockblocking" on the part of family values paragon, Bill O'Reilly, expect even more attacks on the ACLU. In the mood for more delicious dish, read on.
Read moreHannity Puts On A Racially Sensitive Front For A Debate With Cornel West
Cornel West, one of my all-time favorite Fox News guests, visited Hannity last night (1/11/12) to defend having said Herman Cain should get off the “symbolic crack pipe.” Of course, there’s almost nothing too bad that can be said about a liberal or even mainstream African Americans on Hannity but when it’s a conservative African American being criticized – well, that’s a whole different story. But Hannity seems to like West and suddenly, Hannity was a vision of racial sensitivity – even if it was mostly, if not entirely for African American, conservatives. Still, you’ve got to love how West gives Hannity the straight poop yet manages to remain affable and even affectionate.

America’s News HQ hosted Brenda Buttner, of Bulls and Bears, on Sunday, January 8, 2012 to discuss Friday’s jobs report. After noting, the sectors with “good news,” she was asked what sectors lost jobs in December. “Well government is a little bit, you know, losing jobs, and that's, that’s something that we see as a positive because we want government to lose jobs to get more in line with the private sector."

On Friday's Special Report (1/6/12), the "All-Star" panel’s Lightning Round discussed the jobs numbers, then turned to the President's recess appointments because it won the online vote from viewers on what they wanted the panel to discuss. Bret Baier said, "Richard Cordray appointed. How big a deal is this? Obviously, the controversy is a legal and Constitutional one and whether the Senate was really in recess."
Read moreGOP Civil War! Hannity Flabbergasted Over Perry’s “Vulture Capitalism” Attacks On Romney
Republican lap dog Sean Hannity was rendered speechless and stammering last night (1/10/12) when, during a discussion about the results of the New Hampshire primary and the upcoming South Carolina primary, Republican candidate Rick Perry lit into his rival Mitt Romney in what sounded a lot like an attack that could have come from a Democrat – by savaging Romney’s record as a “vulture capitalist” at Bain Capital. Hannity sputtered but had no real response. It’s Through The Looking Glass with the GOP!
Read moreFox Nation Promotes Operation Rescue Propaganda
Operation Rescue is a radical anti-choice organization which has engaged in "aggressive tactics to disrupt and blockade" clinics that provide abortion. In the 80's they directed violent fury against Dr. George Tiller's Kansas City clinic and we all know how that ended. While they have moderated their tactics, they are part of the mainly GOP war on women's reproductive choice which is now heavily invested in destroying Planned Parenthood. Their newest guerilla tactic involves obtaining 911 calls from Planned Parenthood which purport to show malfeasance on the part of this organization that they so loathe. That Fox News is their media mouthpiece is shown by Fox Nation's sourcing of an Operation Rescue article which, like much of what is promoted on Fox News, is a classic example of the propaganda being used to destroy and deny reproductive choice inAmerica.

Fox Nation Deliberately Race Baits Michelle Obama
In yet another mockery of its own stated purpose of civility and tolerance, Fox Nation (edited by O’Reilly Factor ambush producer, Jesse Watters) distorted comments from First Lady Michelle Obama in order to suggest she’s a black racist who's upset that whites have too much power in Illinois. Sadly, the hate-mongering community of readers there pounced on the race bait Watters deliberately fed them.

Greta Van Susteren announced the big endorsement we’ve (not) been waiting for last night: Todd Palin has decided to support Newt Gingrich. That’s right, not Sarah Palin but her husband, Todd, has decided Gingrich is best. Not only that, Greta scored a personal interview for all the deets! File this one under “No Republican Cheerleading Too Trivial For Fox News” along with that Christine O’Donnell endorsement of Mitt Romney.
