FOX News: Your Source for Racism

In case anyone has missed the fair and balanced news coming from our friends at Fox, here's a sampling of the agenda they're pushing this week. And keep in mind, some of the country actually believes this trash:

The Fox & Friends crew Foxsplained to viewers that migrant children aren’t really being kept in cages.
They're “merely chain-link walls” to create rooms.

Laura Ingraham laughed off the suggestion that tearing kids, including babies, from their parents and sticking them in cages inside a former Walmart amounted to child abuse. Ingraham stated the child prisons are “essentially summer camps!”

Tucker Carlson weighed in with his brand of white supremacy: "No matter what they tell you, this isn't about helping children. A lot of people yelling at you on TV don't even have kids, so don't for a second let them take moral high ground.Their goal is to change your country forever."

Not to be outdone, Carlson’s guest, acting ICE Director Thomas Homan in a completely tone deaf complaint said comparison to Nazis is unfair because “they are simply following orders.”

Lastly, Jeff Sessions tried to negate growing, legitimate comparisons between internment camps and border facilities & indefinite lock-up of migrants. Hitler whipped up nationalism using many of these same techniques, scapegoating Jewish people and immigrants. But Sessions claimed they're nothing like the Nazis because Hitler wouldn’t let the Jews leave Germany.

@Northwest Or he is the regime puppet of FOX news - hard to say which.

@hlpflwthat Yes, a toss up. More like Fox News is the creation of those who run the show featuring Trump as its MC.

You gonna run a shitshow, you'll need a lotta shit. He was actually over-qualified. They didn't even interview anyone else.
@Northwest FOX "news" (that always cracks me up) solely owns the fact we cage kids and calls it alright. FOX owns it that Rump's policies exist now that America French kisses the most evil dictators in the world--while dissing EVERY veteran he comes across--all of our allies, trade partners--anything beneficial for the average American and increasingly--due to tariffs---the American worker.

Rump won because of three things--1. Gerrymandering, 2. Interference thru social media from Russia--that Rump invited to happen on national TV and 3. FOX acted as Rump's free campaign manager to play to the 1/3 of America that is the most gullible (and least educated for the most part), the poorest and the most hateful and the most racists. ALL are core traits of a Rump supporter. BTW--FOX espouses still the same racists, hateful virtues in EVERY broadcast--because Rump and FOX both depend on the same crowd for numbers support and ultimately---$$$.

When one asks how could this happen to America---the answer to that primarily lies directly at the feet of FOX broadcasting. When one wonders how lies became the mainstay of what one entire party now believes to be the truth---consider that no broadcast rating agency in the United States--including Politifact (A Republican fact checking site)--ALL-----rates FOX as historically averaging truth in broadcasting as just 7% of the time--across their ENTIRE days broadcast. This includes what their paid talk show hosts (actor's guild) say as they pretend to be "journalists and newscasters"---and what their guests are paid to spin opinions on-air.

Approx. 1/3 of all Americans watch FOX. That 1/3 breathes in the lies as if it was the word of God--and they swallow "listen to NO ONE else--we're the ONLY ones that are not fake"---as they lie to their gullible base to say that. FOX understands the value of "lie enough--lie loudly enough---and eventually they will believe it as truth". Rump learned that lesson from FOX. No wonder 1/3 of America is brainwashed and confused as to what facts are. With no exposure to actual facts--actual news---and because they are told everyday NOT to listen to any other news media----and they are gullible enough--zombie-like enough to do it----no wonder they can't recognize truth when they actually do hear it/see it.
