Andy Martin, Fox News Channel’s Anti-Semite

6:09 pm EST October 14th, 2008 | Media | 9 Comments

This is the guy Fox News and Sean Hannity used to go after Sen. Obama. And this is the guy who has pushed the phony Obama is a Muslim story. This guy.

The Chicago man credited with launching the Barack Obama-is-a-Muslim smear campaign once pledged to ‘exterminate Jew Power in America,’ and claimed that ‘Jew babies are fed with subsidized American taxpayer money,’ and that Jews were ‘schooled in blood sucking and money grubbing from birth.’ Those anti-Semitic statements (and many, many others) were contained in a 1986 fundraising letter circulated by Andy Martin, then a Connecticut congressional candidate.

Will Fox Pull The Trick Again?

3:18 am EST August 25th, 2008 | Media | 35 Comments

bill oreilly goes nutsIt’s clear that Fox is no longer the big bad wolf it was in 2004, but I wonder if their convention coverage will be the same load of nonsense it was in 2004, with Bill O’Reilly wondering if Ted Kennedy would show up to speak as Kennedy spoke right behind him. And will Fox News try to talk over the Dems like they did in ’04?

Probably. So far in their coverage you would think that the entire affair consists of protesters and disgruntled Clinton supporters. I saw a panel with Bill Kristol and Charles Krauthammer with Brit Hume moderating. They all decided that Joe Biden was a bad pick. Shocker. Fair and balanced marches on, but not in a vacuum.

Pravda Watch: Fox On McCain’s Home Gaffe

scotty from star trekYou see kids, the real issue here is not that McCain is an out of touch old warmonger, no, the crime is that Sen. Obama is stepping on the American dream of owning so many houses you forget how many you own.

Beam me up, Scotty, there’s no intelligent life here.

How Fox “News” Operates

Hey, the Democratic convention is coming up… let’s show footage of the 1968 convention, and let’s put on some protesters too (never mind they ignored and ridiculed anti-war protesters in the past). Fair and balanced!

Fox News Speaks About “Baby Mama”

4:44 pm EST June 12th, 2008 | News | 7 Comments

The weasel words you would expect from the GOP’s cable network.

“A producer on the program exercised poor judgment in using this chyron during the segment,” Fox’s Senior Vice President of Programming Bill Shine said in a statement to Politico.

I mean, it ain’t like this is a pattern.

Hey Fox News, Just Call Her A N***** And Be Done With It, Okay?

9:05 pm EST June 11th, 2008 | News | 164 Comments

Fox News refers to Michelle Obama as Senator Obama’s “Baby Mama”.

So here’s the thing (because during this campaign I’m apparently learning that we black people have our own secret code and hand signals so this stuff has to be explained like you are speaking to a child at times), using the phrase “baby mama” to describe this woman implies that like too many people in the black community, she is a mother on her own with no man around doing his job.

Except, Barack and Michelle Obama are the exact opposite of this, and that is one of the reason America – especially black America – are so proud of them.

But Fox News is the network that tears down those who do not toe the line, and if that means they should resort to jive to describe a black woman as a “baby mama” despite the strength of her family and her own personal success, so be it.

Screw you guys.
