Fox Calls Biden Address 'Biden Admin Propaganda On Cap Hill'

Posted by Ellen -7859.80pc on April 28, 2021 · Flag

Tucker Carlson and Fox News never stop hating on America.

The show started out with a normal type of graphic:

 

 

But somebody decided that was too kind for the Tucker Carlson White Power Hour.

I, too, am sensing a rising tide of desperation. Hope it continues, for I’ve bought an awful lot of popcorn.

Two things are evident from Fox News and Carlson’s coverage here:

1. They are clearly panicking over the popularity of the Biden/Harris White House. So they’re trying any tack they can to keep repeating the lie that Biden is somehow senile, or that a major jobs proposal is somehow “socialism”. It’s clear that they’re hoping to repeat their vicious success against Hillary Clinton, where years of smears eventually allowed them to pretend that somehow the smears were “facts” rather than endlessly repeated lies. Not sure that this will work in the current context, but it will be crucial for everyone to show up to vote in 2022 and 2024 and not assume that angry Right Wingers are staying home.

2. Carlson and the rest of the angry Right Wing have clearly forgotten about how Pence’s childish spokesman never gave a single address that was not extremely partisan, and extremely negative toward anyone not on the Extreme Right Wing. They’ve forgotten how Pence’s childish spokesman regularly used State of the Union addresses to embolden bigotry and viciousness – including the horrifying spectacle in 2020 when the Presidential Medal of Freedom was thrown away on an unrepentant bigot. The idea that they would then label a simple, heartfelt address as “unbelievably partisan propaganda” is enough to raise the eyebrows, but it’s par for the course for the Right Wing these days.

It’s also clear that Carlson is panicking that he and Fox News are losing their audience to the more hardcore wingnut outlets like OANN and Newsmax. He’s obviously trying to show his audience “See, I’m just as angry as those guys on The First!”

It’s always amused me to witness how the word “propaganda” has come to have such a negative meaning in the USA. In other countries, it simply means a message with an agenda; in the USA it is immediately understood as being somehow anti-government (communist, socialist, Democrat, another religion, or whatever takes one’s fancy.)

I recently rediscovered James Thurber’s fable entitled “The Very Proper Gander”, where this negative bias is revealed in the moral: “Anybody who you or your wife thinks is going to overthrow the government by violence must be driven out of the country.” None of this is mentioned in the story itself.

I got better screen grabs from FoxNews.com.

I’ll try to get a clearer screen grab tomorrow.
