Megyn Kelly Turns To Disgraced Ben Shapiro As Expert On Sequester Truth
Megyn Kelly and America Live were on Republican Rehab detail yesterday afternoon as they didn’t just ignore guest Ben Shapiro’s bogus and irresponsible smear of SecDef nominee Chuck Hagel but presented Shapiro as some kind of arbiter of truth in reporting. Shapiro, you may recall, wrote the now-discredited and widely lambasted Breitbart.com post with the salacious title, “SECRET HAGEL DONOR?: WHITE HOUSE SPOX DUCKS QUESTION ON ‘FRIENDS OF HAMAS.’ Not only is there no such group as “Friends of Hamas,” but the name was probably dreamt up by a Daily News reporter who figured it was so over the top that nobody would miss that it was a joke name.
Read moreTodd Starnes: Michelle Obama 'Probably' Felt 'Entitled' To 'Upstage' Oscars
Could there be anything more boorish and less ungracious - not to mention bigoted - than making a racially tinged tweet about First Lady Michelle Obama's appearance at the Oscars last night? But that's the kind of Christian spirit displayed by Fox's own Christianity crusader, Todd Starnes.
Read moreBill O'Reilly Says Women Needing Late Term Abortions Are Full O'Crap!
Bill O'Reilly, a 63 year old, devout Catholic, pro-life, right wing media character assassin and accused sexual harasser, is obsessed with lady parts. And like his fellow pro-life pals who seek control of lady parts not belonging to them, Bill believes that women are just too damned stupid, silly, and selfish to make decisions about late term abortions which, contrary to Bill's magical medical expertise, could be vital for the life and health of the woman. As he did with Dr. Tiller, O'Reilly is on a jihad against NY Governor Andrew Cuomo who is proposing legislation that would expand (in accordance with Roe) access to late term abortion to protect the woman's health. On Wednesday night, O'Reilly used the issue to buttress his "talking point" that America is becoming "barbaric." After ranting about it with Bob Beckel, he continued to rant in a subsequent Factor segment during which his trademark misogyny and ignorance of the facts were front and center in his patented all-spin zone!
Read moreChris Wallace Gushes Over Dr. Benjamin Carson
It’s now been about two weeks since Dr. Ben Carson embarrassed President Obama with a lecture at the National Prayer Breakfast. Or, as Chris Wallace put it today on Fox News Sunday, “diagnosed what’s wrong with the country.” Since then, Fox News pundits have been oohing and aahing, and pushing Dr. Carson to run for president and save America. Today, Wallace joined the club.
Read moreFox Just Asks: ‘Second American Revolution On The Horizon?’
Last night’s Justice with Judge Jeanine Jeanine took Fox’s fear mongering about gun regulations to a whole new level when it promoted the comments of Wisconsin sheriff David Clarke, Jr. He recently “assured” citizens that he would never enforce any Obama-administration order to seize their guns because that would bring on “the second coming of an American Revolution, the likes of which would make the first revolution pale by comparison.” Rather than point out that President Obama has not proposed any such order, Jeanine Pirro opened the segment with a cover of the Beatles’ song, “Revolution." FoxNews.com called the segment, “Second American Revolution on the horizon?” Then Pirro went on to suggest that any new gun laws could lead to a second American Revolution.
Read moreROFLMAO! Bill O'Reilly Gives Advice On Venting Anger!!!!!
As he who is looking out for us, Bill O'Reilly feels it is his sacred duty to give advice to those mere mortals who are in desperate need of his wisdom. So just one week after he had an epic meltdown during which he screamed that he knew more about the topic than his guest did, that she was "nuts," and that her disagreement with him meant that she "doesn't get it," Bill O'Reilly gives advice on dealing with anger. Yes ladies and gents, in an example of Bill's amazing and astounding self centered cognitive dissonance, dare I say, delusional thinking, he proffered, as his "Tip of the Day," advice on - wait for it - how to vent anger. It's too funny. A guy who has major anger issues telling others how to deal with it - and he's not saying to simmer down, either because that's too "politically correct." And we know that blustering Bill is never politically correct!
Read moreFox Pretends Its Anti-Obama Agenda Is Just Asking Tough Questions
I don’t know how five rather intelligent Fox News pundits can go on camera and, with a straight face, contend that Fox News is some kind of legitimate muckraker that President Obama is ducking because every other news outlet is sucking up to him. All the while citing various sources in the mainstream media that criticize him. But that’s what Judith Miller, Kirsten Powers, Monica Crowley and Jim Pinkerton did with assists from host Jon Scott on Fox News Watch tonight.
Read moreTucker Carlson Apologizes For Offending Wiccans
Recently, in two Fox & Friends segments, Tucker Carlson discussed the U of Missouri's "Diversity Guide," an "educational resource" which assists professors in "planning classroom activities and other academic and co-curricular events" around religious holy days celebrated by students. Carlson lied when he claimed that the "frivolous and silly" guide recommended that no exams be scheduled on Wiccan holy days. He lied when he suggested that Wiccans get an official day off on their holy days which, he falsely claimed, are recognized by the school. He lied when he claimed that they have a "ton of holidays." But worse, he attacked Wiccans as Christian haters and stereotyped them as incense loving, twice divorced, rural, older women who are mid-wives and addicted to Dungeons and Dragons. Today he apologized for offending the Wiccans. The claims that Wiccans get special treatment still stand. So much for "fair & balanced." Oh right, this is an opinion show...
Read moreFox News Mailbag
We're still getting inundated with emails meant for Fox News. I don't know whether their viewers are getting dumber or it's their subconscious way of reaching out to sanity, hehe. But however they landed in the News Hounds email box, here they are for your enjoyment - and for whichever Fox News lackey, who surely monitors this site, to do with as you see fit.
Read moreHow Many Times Can A Democratic Guest Be Interrupted On Fox News?
Earlier today Neil Cavuto “spoke” with Rep. Mike Capuano (D-MA) about the President’s “scary talk” on sequestration, in Cavuto’s words. But Cavuto spent so much time interrupting and talking over Capuano that it was pretty much a one-sided conversation. And while he was at it, Cavuto pretended President Obama had threatened the cuts would lead to horse meat in our meat supply.
