Fox News finally notices the Diebold voting machine scandal

Blog: September 17th, 2006

Now that the Democratic Party seems poised to retake the House, Fox News gets concerned about the voting machines. Where were they in 2002 and 2004, when the polls were nearly dead-even and every single Diebold “error” miraculously ended up favoring the Republican Party?

…and, a 10 minute video summarizing the Princeton study (which is one […]

Clinton Unloads on Faux News

Blog: September 24th, 2006

As anyone who’s seen a brilliant trailer and then gone to find out that the movie was total crap knows, it’s easy to give a false impression with a few simple editing tricks. For the past couple days, the Drudge Report and other right-wing sites have been downright orgasmic over a 50-second clip that they […]

Clinton on Faux: How could Roger Ailes be so confused?

Blog: September 27th, 2006

There’s been so much whine coming from the direction of the “Fair & Balanced” network that you’d think they were based in Napa. “Boo hoo, Bill Clinton raised his voice! Waaaah, Bill Clinton looked at me angry! Mommy! Mommy! Mommmmyyyyyy!” Today, Fox even tried to portray Clinton’s forceful response to their interviewer as an attack […]

Has Sean Hannity Gone Crazy?

Blog: January 10th, 2007

OK, let me get this straight: If you criticize Sean Hannity and call for the impeachment of George W. Bush, that makes you an “Enemy of the State.” (I know, I know, Hannity and his kind confusing a man - whether himself or the President - with “the State” isn’t anything new).I don’t know what’s […]

Lib’ral Media Covers Up for Obama

Blog: January 23rd, 2007

Nice try, Chicago Sun-Times:
Barack Obama’s week-old presidential campaign has been hit with a smear. Hillary Clinton’s White House bid, launched Saturday, has been attacked with an unfounded accusation. Contrary to what was reported in Insight magazine and then repeated on Fox News and in other news outlets, including a column that ran in the Sun-Times by […]

Washington Times disavows Insight over Obama story

Blog: January 29th, 2007

Like alcoholic parents trying to disavow their crack-whore son, the Washington Times is attempting to distance itself from the bogus Obama-madrassah story — a story that they and Fox News had amplified.
The Washington Times, which is also owned by the Unification Church, but operates separately from the Web site, quickly disavowed the article. Its national […]

Fox News: Barack Obama, Sex Offender?

Blog: February 11th, 2007

Faux News affiliates sure are subtle, aren’t they?

Don’t think subliminal crap like this works? Take a look at how well it works even on people who make their living at it (watch it through to the end for the payoff):

Fox News: Oh no, Obama (gasp) SMOKES!

Blog: February 14th, 2007

A few questions to keep in mind while watching the latest salvo in the Faux News bombardment of Senator Obama:1. So we haven’t seen Obama smoke. Since when have we seen any politician smoke? Do they expect the Senator to fire up a Marlboro while he’s on camera with Wolf Blitzer?2. Why does the commentator […]

Fox’s Obama obsession: If it walks like racism and talks like racism…

Blog: February 15th, 2007

I saw something on YouTube the other day (I’ve posted it below) that I found disturbing. But luckily, I had the foresight to pull out and leaf through my tattered copy of The Modern American’s Guide for Interpreting Other People’s Behavior: Women/Minority/Gay Edition™. I carry it with me everywhere I go. It comes in handy […]

Plame was covert, but Fox won’t let go of the myth

Blog: March 17th, 2007

…Yet Fox News continues to rely on Victoria Toensing, the woman who, as far as I’ve been able to learn - has never spoken to either the CIA or Valerie Plame and has never seen any of the classified information regarding Valerie Plame’s work or role, as an “expert” commentator.And by the way, pay attention […]
