Fox & Friends’ unending Republican infomercial never ceases to amaze me. Watch these two spooky video clips appropriate for Halloween and tell me if they don’t appear completely staged to you. They certainly appear scripted to me.

It’s one thing to be in the proverbial tank for the Republican Party. Fox News pretty much is. It’s another thing to be a right-wing propaganda factory. Again, Fox News pretty much is. Fox & Friends brings it to an entirely new plain of absurdity. This has to be Fox News’ dumbest smear of Obama [...]

“I watch CNN, they’re not f*cked up like Fox. They are a mouthpiece for the Republican Party. I watch [Fox] a couple times when there is someone I want to see on there. But they’re corrupt.” – Charles Barkley
Now remember, Fox News is a professional news organization (by their own accounts) so we [...]

The other day I mentioned that Joe the Plumber wasn’t ready for prime time. Fox News has been trumpeting John McCain’s ‘every man’ campaign sidekick (Fox & Friends briefly brought him up again – in a glowing context – as I’m writing this). Of course, Fox News has been happy to deflect criticism as part [...]

Not to worry. Naturally, Fox News did and ran it as their big political news story at the half hour break during Fox & Friends. Why not? Fox News has become the unofficial reelection public relations firm for the McCain campaign.
John Orton briefly covers the back and forth between Obama and Fox News in [...]

The complete absurdity that is Fox & Friends. Whining per their norm that the media’s “in the tank” for Obama they – with a completely straight face – offer Barbara West a shoulder to cry on.
Who’s Barbara West you ask? Check out her way over the top interview of Joe Biden. Reciting the standard [...]

I saw this over at Crooks & Liars and feel compelled to post it. Not because, as John Amato points out, Don Imus states matter of factly “I think he [McCain] has… I really do think he has the potential to be a great president and we just hope he doesn’t die” with Neil Cavuto [...]

Bill ‘No Spin” O’Reilly goes to bat to boost Republican Michelle Bachmann’s reelection campaign.

Bill plays some of a Chris Matthews’ interview of Michelle Bachmann where she says “the liberals that are Jeremiah Wright and that are Bill Ayers are over the top anti-American.” She also went on to claim Michelle Obama’s statement she was [...]

I realize Congressmen are vain critters by definition but you still have to wonder about the intelligence of liberal Democrat Dennis Kucinich. Last time I caught him on Fox News Neil Cavuto was using him as a tool to trash Jimmy Carter. When Kucinich refused to play the gotcha game his mike got cut off [...]

Well, it seems Obama supporters might not be as violent as Fox & Friends’ Obama-bashing smear campaign would lead us to believe. The story they were so eager to toss out as so much red meat about the woman getting a “B” carved into her face by a Obama supporter robbing her is complete bunk. [...]
