So many people I know are into Twitter in a big way. I’m a bit of nerd myself. I’m sure that’s a shock to everyone who can’t imagine a blogger being a nerd. Yet, Twitter leaves me cold. However, Eyes On Fox has a Twitter account. The blog is tied to our Twitter account so [...]
I understand Sarah Palin’s appeal. She’s attractive. She’s gee-shucks ordinary like your next door neighbor. She’s the poster child of the Tea Party movement because she reflexively parrots the far right populism sweeping the Republican Party and heavily promoted by Fox News.
Yet I don’t understand her appeal. The more she’s exposed the more I question [...]
The first National Tea Party Convention is scheduled for February 4th through 6th in Nashville. If you are one of the little guys we’re supposed to believe comprise this grass roots movement you’re somewhat out of luck. The $349 (plus a $9.71 fee) convention only tickets are sold out. The all inclusive $549 (plus a [...]
A while back I saw Bill O’Reilly questioning CNN’s move away from punditry to concentrate on hard news. He openly ridiculed the network for the decision since opinion is what sells. Who can argue with Fox News’ highly popular right-wing propaganda factory? So it’s no surprise that Fox News keeps running their hugely profitable frothing [...]
Picture this. Roger Ailes and his Fox News lieutenants sitting around a conference table munching donuts and trying to come up with a talking head to feature in a new show. Trying to live up to their reputation of “fairness of balance” for the first time in the network’s history they push for diversity by [...]
“I can say it’s gonna be unlike anything else that’s on Fox and maybe on cable.” – Mike Huckabee
Oh, I doubt it. More “fair and balanced” bias free analysis from a dependable right-winger. Fox News’ already underwhelming diversity of thought just got that bit narrower.
I doubt this will do much to raise the [...]
Huge shock! It’s that low? Oh heck, of course not! It’s so high. 87% support McCain. 87% seems a low number but he’s probably too liberal for the Fox News crowd.
Read the details here.
Friends and I have discussed the topic many times over many years. Sooner or later some mental case filled with a head of nonsense fed by the right-wing talk radio crowd and their ilk is going to take their hate-mongering seriously and commit an act of violence against those vilified liberals. Is Jim David Adkisson [...]
Eyes On Fox News doesn’t usually cover the Fox Business News channel but this story is too big (or too small depending upon how you look at it) to pass by. According to Howard Kurtz Fox Business News is a ratings disaster averaging a minuscule 8,000 daytime viewers and 20,000 prime time viewers. CNBC garners [...]
“I’m not in the business of creating some kind of controversy that’s not relevant to the general subject — one civil rights leader disparaging another over policy.” – Bill O’Reilly [emphasis added]
O’Reilly lives for controversy. O’Reilly lives to bash liberals. O’Reilly lives to draw the spotlight on himself.
So anyone familiar with Bill knows he’s lying. [...]
