On Outnumbered: Andrea Tantaros' Stupid Comment Stands Out In Sea Of Stupid!
Fox News plays to the fears and bigotry of its aging, white audience who live in abject fear of America's changing ethnic and religious demographics. For these folks, weaned on the belief that you can't be a good American if you don't believe in God, the existence of atheists poses a serious threat to their way of life. And that's why Fox is waging a constant war on atheists which, in this week's edition, started with the Fox friends whining about evil atheists who pressured the Navy to remove Christian bibles from taxpayer funded lodging. In keeping with Fox's propaganda reinforcement strategy, it was repeated on "Outnumbered" where the gals and "one lucky guy" continued to pander to Fox's audience's fear and loathing of atheists with some really dumb commentary, dare I say batshit crazy!
Read moreMacCallum And McCarthy Accuse Obama Of Putting A Black ‘Thumb On The Scale’ In Ferguson
Fox's Martha MacCallum deliberately played the Ferguson race card against President Barack Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder last night as she repeatedly suggested they are too partial to African Americans and prejudiced against white people and police. Guest Andrew McCarthy was a willing and able assistant.
Read moreGreta Van Susteren Makes Obama’s Ferguson Comments About Benghazi
President Obama’s call for calm and restraint for Ferguson, Missouri yesterday was little more than a pretext for Fox’s Greta Van Susteren to go off on a Benghazi jag. Seriously.
Read moreLaura Ingraham Suggests Journalists Arrested And Tear Gassed In Ferguson, MO Were Asking For It
On the O’Reilly Factor last night, host Laura Ingraham exploited the arrest of two journalists in Ferguson, Missouri to attack President Obama. How, you may wonder, did she tie them together? By suggesting the journalists were looking for trouble and that President Obama wrongly criticized the police for arresting them. For extra Fox points, she even worked in a swipe at Michelle Obama. But you’ll have to read further to find out how.
Read moreHannity Fear Mongers About Black Radicals In Ferguson, Missouri
Leave it to white-racist loving Sean Hannity to deliberately stoke fears of black radicals involved in the Ferguson, Missouri protests. This is the same guy who championed Cliven Bundy’s armed protests against federal BLM agents without a concern for the radicals hanging around or the danger they might have presented. And it just so happened that Bundy turned out to be quite the racist.
Read moreOn The Kelly File: Hate Group Leader Tony Perkins Suggests Obama Prefers Yazidis Over Christians
While Tony Perkins, president of the homophobic hate group The Family Research Council, is appearing less and less on the mainstream media, he continues to be embraced by Fox News, especially on the Kelly File where his views are validated. His appearances serve to promote right wing talking points and the requisite Fox Obama bashing. Perkins' Tuesday night appearance on the Kelly File was no exception. He articulated the Fox/rightwing meme of Christian persecution along with the Fox/rightwing meme that Pres. Obama is ignoring it! As propaganda it was vintage Perkins and vintage Kelly File.
Read moreFox & Friends Makes Case For Unconstitutional Public School Prayer
While Jesus' BFF's on the Fox & Friends curvy couch would be appalled if Muslim prayer were forced upon America's Christian public school students, they have no problem with the insertion of Christian worship into school activities funded by the taxpayers. This is what appears to be the case at a Georgia high school where coaches and teachers not only lead the football team in Christian prayer, but use a bible verse on the team's official workout sheets. A humanist group claims that this is a violation of that pesky 1st Amendment "establishment" clause which isn't popular with the America is a Christian nation crowd. But Fox & Friends openly supports unconstitutional public school prayer. So are we surprised that, this morning, they added some of their patented cheese to their patented persecuted Christian/evil atheist whine?!
Read moreTodd Starnes Race Hustles The Tragic Death Of Michael Brown
Of all the right-wing attempts to exploit – and yes, race hustle – the police killing of unarmed teenager Michael Brown, Fox’s Todd Starnes has to take the cake. Starnes ridiculed President Obama’s statement calling Brown’s death “heartbreaking” and posted a series of race baiting tweets questioning why Obama didn’t offer condolences to the police officer (who, unlike Brown, didn’t die) or other white people. “I’m sensing a pattern,” Starnes tweeted. So are we, Todd.
Read moreShepard Smith Sort Of Apologizes For Suggesting Robin Williams Was 'A Coward'
In his breaking news coverage of Robin Williams’ suicide on Monday, Fox News anchor Shepard Smith wondered if cowardice impelled Williams to kill himself. Yesterday, Smith apologized “to the end of the Earth to anyone who might think that I meant to openly call him a coward.” So was Smith saying he should have just privately said it?
