Plagiarist Monica Crowley has yet another conspiracy theory to promote and this one involves her own self: She’s the victim of “a despicable straight-up political hit job.” That would be the “political hit job” that found more than 50 examples of plagiarism in her last book, alone.

A 2015 trip to Russia by a delegation from the National Rifle Association, arguably Donald Trump’s most powerful ally in the 2016 election, raises new questions about Trump’s ties to Vladimir Putin. This time, Fox’s favorite sheriff (and Trump supporter) David Clarke is involved.

Donald Trump can’t be bothered with intelligence briefings because, he says, he’s “like, a smart person.” When he does take them, he wants them “as little as possible.” But Fox & Friends seems to be Trump’s idea of worthwhile information about terrorism – and he leaves the fact checking up to them, apparently.

Bill O’Reilly seems to think that the kind of affordable, decent-quality health insurance available to lower-income people via Obamacare is some kind of freebie that undeserving slackers are mooching.  

A general strike by women is scheduled for tomorrow, International Women’s Day. But judging from the comments on Fox & Friends this morning, you can be pretty darned sure no women will honor the effort by taking off from the “fair and balanced” network tomorrow.

Did Fox & Friends bother to vet “investigative journalist” Matthew Vadum, its Obama-hating guest this morning, or was Vadum’s support for Donald Trump’s baseless “Obama wiretapped me” accusation all the vetting the show needed? Regardless, Vadum's recent calls for Trump-critic Evan McMullin to be shot should have disqualified him. At the very least, Vadum’s extremism should have been disclosed.

Congratulations to Newt Gingrich, the winner of last week’s Outrageous Fox Quote Poll. Gingrich alleged that Trump’s attacks on the media are part of “a real war.” Check out this week’s contenders after the jump:

Fox News host Tucker Carlson rarely, if ever, interviews a liberal or Democratic guest without sandbagging him or her. But Congressman Jim Himes (D-CT) not only refused to be sandbagged, he turned the tables on Carlson and put him on defense at times.

In Fox News' alternative reality, white privilege is a "racist" concept concocted by minorities who have only themselves to blame for their problems!  Any discussion of white privilege is also considered racist. The Black Lives Matter movement is also a sore subject on Fox. This morning, Fox & Friends combined both memes in a report on a college honors program that includes a course on, yes, white privilege and Black Lives Matter.

While many are appalled by Donald Trump’s baseless accusation that he was wiretapped by Barack Obama, a claim that just happened to arise as scrutiny of Trump's ties to Russia intensifies, the Fox Friends proved that they’ll always be there for him.
