Missing Malaysian Jet Is Now Officially About Benghazi For Fox News
From Bill O'Reilly, to Andrea Tantaros, to Greg Gutfeld, Fox analyst Ralph Peters and, most tellingly, to Roger Ailes' personal lawyer and alter ego, Peter Johnson, Jr. - the missing Malaysian jet mystery makes everyone think of Benghazi. What a coincidence!
Read moreMemo To Eric Bolling: Heterosexuals Can March In NY City Gay Pride Parade
In attempting to prove that liberals are the real bigots, Sean Hannity cited NY City Mayor ("Comrade" DeBlasio) Bill DeBlasio's decision to boycott the annual NY City St. Patrick's Day parade because of their exclusion of LGBT groups. One of Hannity's panelists, Eric Bolling asked (twice) if heterosexuals can march in a gay pride parade. While Hannity didn't know, Kimberly Guilfoyle (ex-wife of the former mayor of San Francisco) said that, as far as she knew, pride parades are open to straight people. Eric needs to know that pride parades welcome straight people, including homophobic bigots like the blustering Bill Donohue, head of the Catholic League, whose application to march in the NY City Gay Pride parade was accepted.
Read moreO’Reilly Finds Another Way To Work Benghazi Into Missing Malaysian Jet Story
During The O’Reilly Factor’s regular “Mad as Hell” segment, the first letter from a viewer just happened to complain that the media is covering the missing Malaysian jet more than Benghazi. That just happened to give Bill O’Reilly and Fox’s Heather Nauert an opportunity to add their two cents of agreement.
Read moreBill O’Reilly’s Missing Malaysian Airplane Sour Grapes – Benghazi Edition
Bill O’Reilly followed in colleague Andrea Tantaros’ footsteps tonight by gratuitously throwing Benghazi into the missing Malaysian airliner story. And it merely confirmed my theory that O’Reilly’s real beef with the missing-jet media saturation is that there’s no way for him to exploit it.

Andrea Tantaros was oh-so sympathetic to the Malaysian Airliner victims and their families today. So sympathetic that her thoughts naturally turned to politically exploiting them by bringing up Benghazi.

Last night, Bill O’Reilly’s “tip of the day” was about websites that “save you money.” The main recommendation was Overstock.com. Unfortunately for The O’Reilly Factor viewers, the "internet detectives" looking into the site either overlooked or ignored the nearly $7 million fine recently levied against the company for inflating its advertised discounts.
Read moreOn The Five: More Fox Fear And Loathing Of Muslims
Fox News actively pushes an alternate reality in which American Christians are the victims of ongoing persecution. During a recent persecuted Christian whinefest, on the Hannity show, professional Christian and former Jack Abramoff pal, Ralph Reed, said that attacks on Christians are "the last acceptable form of bigotry in our culture." That this statement is both laughable and a lie is underscored by Fox News' ongoing attacks on the LGBT community, atheists, and Muslims - a religious group that Fox bashes "with impunity" such as when, on last week's The Five, good Christian Andrea Tantaros said that Islam is the "most intolerant" religion evah. Last night, the tolerant Five advanced the outrage of the Islamophobic cottage industry over the Virginia Assembly's recent passage of a resolution honoring a Virginia mosque which, according to the Breitbart article linked on The Five's website, is a "terror mosque." Oh, noooo....

Read moreBill O’Reilly’s Missing Malaysian Airplane Sour Grapes
Bill O’Reilly is not happy with all the media attention over the missing Malaysian airplane. I'm sure it has nothing to do with how CNN has been beating him in the ratings with the story. But, while whining that the coverage has “corrupt(ed) the news business,” O’Reilly played at taking the journalistic high road - by fear mongering that the media is ignoring a looming World War III.
