Fox News Ignores Biden Speech At Warner Funeral

Earlier today, President Joe Biden spoke at the funeral of former Sen. John Warner’s funeral (R-VA). But Fox News decided that Harris Faulkner’s softball interview with Caitlyn Jenner was more newsworthy.

Our friend Richard W. caught the screengrabs:

As The New York Times reported, Warner was not only a Republican U.S. senator for 30 years, he also served as secretary of the U.S. Navy from 1972-74 and he was the sixth husband of Elizabeth Taylor. However, what may have caused the snub was the fact that Warner was not a Trumper. From the Times:

In his retirement years, the rightward shift of the Republican Party further alienated Mr. Warner, prompting him to endorse select Democrats, including his former Senate colleagues Hillary Clinton and Joseph R. Biden Jr. in their presidential runs against Donald J. Trump.

While she was ignoring the real president's speech at an important funeral, Faulkner was pimping the unlikely presidential prospects of Jenner.

FOX is all about ratings and money. They know their audience will tune out a Biden speech at a memorial service, just as they know their viewers will hang on every word of Caitlyn’s, because she’s another conservative that they’ve fallen for. They will never realize that she’s just another grifter, trying to keep her name in the spotlight and get their money. She’s a joke, and most of us here in CA laugh and sneer at her for the used jet trash she is.

Your comment applies to everything Republican, today, John McKee. People are leaving the GOP, not so much because they are against voter suppression (they’re all for it) but because today’s party is a source of constant embarrassment, even shame. The GOP, today, is bent on sowing chaos and irrelevancy, along with the fear-mongering (which the traditional GOP has always done). There’s no longer any pretense at being fact-based or reasonable: their only goal seems to be to rile up their followers to a fever pitch (aka lynch-mob excitement).

Even Fox ‘News’ of the Shrub and Obama years (which I loathed with a passion) would have pointed and laughed at the bizarro depths it has plunged to since Roger ‘Despicable Me’ Ailes shuffled off ther planet.
