commented on Tucker Carlson Implicitly Confirms He’s Been Vaccinated 2021-06-23 14:12:46 -0400 · Flag

While I don’t wish for anyone to get sick or die from Covid, I can’t muster any sympathy for someone who gets their medical advice from Fox News.

commented on Fox Baselessly Suggests Dr. Fauci Deliberately Helped Chinese Spread COVID 2021-06-04 19:07:30 -0400 · Flag

I absolutely agree, the false statements made about Fauci (and others) on Fox “News” are not made “in error,” they are malicious slander. It’s time to stop letting them get away with it.

People will die because of Tucker’s intentional lies about Covid-19 vaccines. Yet he refuses to say whether or not HE is vaccinated. He can’t claim “privacy” rights while using his very public platform to denounce vaccines.

Pavlich is so thoroughly repulsive.

commented on Tucker Carlson Wants Viewers To Harass Anyone Wearing A Face Mask Outdoors 2021-04-27 20:39:36 -0400 · Flag

I have friends who have been harassed (and NOT politely) for wearing a mask, so Carlson isn’t proposing anything new.

commented on Seth Meyers Skewers Kayleigh McEnany’s Sudden Concern Presidents Not Inflame Tensions 2021-04-25 15:59:32 -0400 · Flag

Another violator of the Hatch Act. McEnany, as an employee of the federal government on Jan 4., illegally made her political views public, as did many Trump appointees. Let’s hope the DOJ goes after them.

Even after the Kraken herself admitted that reasonable folks should not take her voter-fraud claims seriously, a few wingnuts like Alveda have to perpetuate the Big Lie. How else is the GOP going to rake in donations from gullible supporters?

commented on Outrageous Fox Quote Of The Week Poll (Mar. 15-21, 2021) 2021-03-22 23:04:46 -0400 · Flag

Could Owens’ remark about a “traumatizing experience” at the supermarket be more ill-timed?

commented on Alexander Vindman Rips Fox News’ Smear Tactics; Urges Other Targets Sue For Defamation 2021-03-17 12:13:42 -0400 · Flag

Unfortunately, the money that Fox News has paid to settle lawsuits is a pittance compared to the huge profits they generate. But I applaud Vindman for speaking out and encouraging others who are smeared by the network to fight back.

commented on Tucker Carlson Is The New Donald Trump – But Possibly More Dangerous 2021-03-16 02:09:38 -0400 · Flag

The last several years should teach us that anything can happen. No matter who rises to power within the GOP, we have to view them as a serious threat to our country.

commented on Fox’s Mollie Hemingway Calls It ‘Un-American’ For Biden To Pick July 4th As Target For Partial Return To Normal 2021-03-12 11:28:30 -0500 · Flag

Mollie’s customary smirk goes so well with her customary snark. At this point, she’s beyond parody!

commented on Fox & Friends Boosts DeSantis' Re-Election And Possible Presidential Bid 2021-03-10 12:49:14 -0500 · Flag

Ruh, roh! Does this mean Fox won’t support Trump if he runs for president in 2024?

commented on Kayleigh McEnany Clutches Her Pearls Over Biden’s Use Of ‘Neanderthal’ Word 2021-03-05 11:24:33 -0500 · Flag

Hackman, I presume you mean it is insulting to Neanderthals to be compared to the current crop of RW politicians.

I wish people in the media would just stop asking right-wingers, “Did Joe Biden win the election?” It’s been settled! The deniers don’t need to be prodded to spread their lies.

commented on Fox’s Watters: Chris Hayes ‘Would Have Been A Traitor’ During Revolutionary War 2021-02-26 10:01:33 -0500 · Flag

I commend your endurance for listening to this drivel. These so-called “free-speech” champions on Fox News are just itching for a civil war (Think of the ratings it will bring in!) and they are condemning liberal opinions as traitorous, while minimizing the violent acts of those who attacked the Capitol.

commented on Sen. Cruz Whines Media ‘Obsessed Over My Taking My Girls To The Beach 2021-02-24 11:44:02 -0500 · Flag

If Cruz runs for re-election, his opponent will replay video of his whiney excuses for his Cancun trip over and over. The more this guy talks, the deeper the hole he’s digging for himself.

commented on Hannity Paints ‘Cancun’ Ted Cruz As A Media Victim 2021-02-19 11:59:00 -0500 · Flag

Three questions:
Did the meteorologist alter the weather map of Texas with a Sharpie?
How soon will Cruz blame President Biden for the state’s problems?
Why not cancel the Outrageous Quote of the Week poll and declare a tie between these two, ahem, “winners”?

commented on Sen. Marshall On Trump Refusal To Help During Capitol Siege: ‘What Did Nancy Pelosi Know?’ 2021-02-14 17:36:15 -0500 · Flag

This whole “What did Nancy Pelosi know?” meme is going to dominate conservative media 24/7. No evidence, no logic, just constant repetition.
The more relevant question: what did Cruz, Hawley, Gosar, Biggs, Brooks, and other Republicans know?

Stirewalt has been involved in pushing false information at Fox for years, so I can’t feel sympathy for him. He is likely looking for work at more “respectable” news networks. Let’s hope they all pass on him.
