Is Fox NEWS all that bad? They wouldn’t be if they didn’t skirt the truth with lies and their own made up opinions. If you are going to report the news - have an open mind. Its like a salad. They put the main ingredients and then add any other item to make it better whether it does or not. Rupert Murdoch could give two fcks as long as it makes ratings for his network. Fck him too!
The evidence would seem to suggest that, if there is some sort of pathogenic or agent the inhibits or corrupts mental function, its delivery system is unmistakable. I stick to imported ales and microbrews in order to avoid it.
Well, this was a surprise. Mike Pompeo was on Fox and Friends this morning. The hosts, in an uncharacteristic lapse of asskissing lackeyism, pushed Pompeo on the Khashoggi murder. And they didn’t take his non-answers for an answer.
Sorry for the ad before the clip, this just happened and I couldn’t find the short clip anywhere else. It will probably be up on less annoying sites in a little while.
I took one for the team, downloaded the FoxNews home page a few hours ago, and searched it for references to ‘Trump’, ‘Flynn’, ‘Mueller’, ‘Clinton’ (none), ‘Obama’ and ‘Hillary.’ Here is everything that turned up: (I’ve brownified my sarcastic comments.)
You guys are all in the lame-stream liberal bubble. Checking the home page of the Nation’s Fare and Balanst News just now I see the following references to Flynn:
[ul]
[li] Flynn is innocent – his guilty plea should be thrown out[/li][li] Judge’s ‘treason’ insinuation in Flynn case ‘pretty reckless’[/li][li] How Flynn could still avoid prison[/li][li] Alan Dershowitz: Michael Flynn now has three options to stay out of prison[/li][li] FBI agents were helping Flynn fill in blanks on Russia conversations[/li][li] Howard Kurtz: Flynn ‘entrapment’ argument touted by Right backfires[/li][/ul]
The following references to the real criminals:
[ul]
[li] TERMINAL CLINTON FATIGUE Opinion LAUREN APPELL: Bill and Hillary’s bid to rewrite history hits wall in 2019[/li][li] Comey grilled about Obama’s knowledge of Hillary server[/li][li] Marc Thiessen: The Mueller probe could turn out to be a disaster – for the Democrats[/li][/ul]
And the following mentions of Dear Leader:
[ul]
[li] President Trump is resisting globalism and winning[/li][li] Liberal advocacy group suing Trump admin for ‘metering’ asylum seekers[/li][li] Trump administration moves to ban sale of bump stocks, make possession illegal by March[/li][li] Will Trump forgo border wall to avoid government shutdown?[/li][li] Man sentenced for threatening to ‘put a bullet’ in Trump’s head[/li][li] President Trump deserves all the credit for our soaring labor market[/li][li] Joy Behar’s joyless 2018: ‘The View’ star’s most over-the-top anti-Trumpiness of the year[/li][li] Arizona man gets prison term for threats against President Trump[/li][li] Trump joins Wreaths Across America in laying wreaths at Arlington National Cemetery[/li][/ul]
America’s champion is laying wreaths for our fallen soldiers while the evil-doers are still pre-occupied with covering up the e-mail treason.
If you look at the polling numbers on 538 (they aggregate Trump’s approval rating across a bunch of polls), he’s been at 41%, +/- a point or two, for most of 2018.
Brian Kilmeade is one of the hosts on Fox & Friends, Individual-1’s favorite show. Remember when I-1 called in unexpectedly and wouldn’t get off? Bet he’s not too happy now, being called out by his boyz.
“Refounding ISIS” might be overstating it. It kinda looks more like he’s leaving it in Russia’s hands whether or not ISIS continues to exist. Ideally, Russia would wipe them out completely in Syria, but I can see Putin leaving them on life-support to use as a future weapon of chaos against other western interests in the region in future.
So, I’m watching the news last night, as the trajectory of the shit intersected the locus of the fan. Thought I’d just check in, see what Hannity was saying about this. click…its about the horror of sanctuary cities…so, I’m confused a bit, why was this the focus given the situation?
Also, no Hannity. Turns out, this was sort of a “special edition” Hannity, with no Hannity, and a focus on a sort of hour long essay about important issues of the day. Well, not that particular day, just a general sort of review of crucial issues. I’m not familiar enough with Faux Gnaws to be totally sure that this wasn’t scheduled some time ago, rather than a hastily concocted scheme to buy some time to catch their breath…Not sure, mind you. Leaning that way.
I can imagine that at Fox, unlike real journalistic operations, they occasionally require time to decide what their editorial stance on the news is, before they can report it.
I want to be happy about this news but… MSNBC? And Rachel maddow the top-rated show?
I don’t understand the US viewing public at all it seems. Don’t get me wrong – I’m not saying it’s anywhere near as bad as fox because of fucking course not.
Just that personally I find Maddow and morning Joe insufferable to watch. That shitty faux-outrage conversational style…yuck.
