Fox talking head’s stunning flag hypocrisy

This is Pride Week, and the Biden White House is flying a Pride flag. When I read this, I knew Republicans would be triggered. Boy, ever! A Fox banshee shrieked (here), “It is a flagrant violation of U.S. Flag code 7 E, to have the US flag not at a higher point and centered”! Harry […][...]

Fox News has a rogue employee

It seems this screenshot was unauthorized. “Fox News on Wednesday acknowledged that an onscreen banner calling President Joe Biden a ‘wannabe dictator’ was inappropriate and said it had taken steps to address the situation internally,” CNN said on June 14, 2023 (read story he[...]

Fox hosts haven’t stopped lying

Harris Faulkner (bio here), one of the Fox personalities filling in for Tucker Carlson after he was fired, claimed on the air that Christians are under attack. It’s classic rightwing victimhood. To bolster her storyline, she asserted she was kicked out of a restaurant for saying grace. She tol[...]

Fox host blames subway attacks on “gender-confused” people

Rachel Campos-Duffy (bio here) was a reality-TV actor before she became an entertainer on a Fox talk show. I point this out because it’s important to keep in mind she’s not, and never has been, a journalist. Her job is to entertain Fox audiences to keep ratings up, as the Dominion lawsui[...]

What Fox News is doing to America (video)

Fox isn’t a news network; it’s lying propaganda. Its own hosts don’t believe what they say on the air. It’s easy to believe the motive is political, because its owner — billionaire Rupert Murdoch — is a rightwinger. But it isn’t even that. His motive is mone[...]

Fox News is in serious hot water

Millions of Americans watch only Fox News, and don’t get news from any other source, which is a great big problem. It’s a great big problem because Fox is propaganda, not news. It’s brainwashing, not informing, its audiences. Its top opinion-shaper, Tucker Carlson, is a Russia symp[...]

Fox host calls for Maginot Line on Canada border

“Fox News host Emily Compagno said that the United States needs a ‘fortified boundary’ or another type of wall on the northern border with Canada” because of increased border crossing, Raw Story reported on Monday, January 30, 2023 (read story here). The Maginot Line was a se[...]

How stupid is Fox News?

“Fox News host Harris Faulkner accused President Joe Biden of threatening a border official by merely clearing his throat” (see story here, watch video below). Look, Fox News isn’t journalism, it’s entertainment catering to people who attend Trump rallies and make down paymen[...]

Fox guest accuses Idaho suspect of more murders

There are no bodies, or even missing persons, but that didn’t stop this Fox guest from speculating the Idaho slayings weren’t the perpetrator’s first murders. The Fox producers and on-air hosts have their fingers in this pie, too, because they solicited his appearance, put him on t[...]
