FOX NEWS IS A DISGRACE

Post by Vēritās »

I figured I'd just make this the official thread about FOX News lies and people can add as they see fit. These aren't in any particular order, some lies are far more egregious than others but all of these examples further the point that FOX is just Republican headquarters that pumps out political propaganda and isn't shy about lying.

The GOP lie about 87,000 IRS agents going after "hard working Americans" just doesn't seem to die.

It is stupid crap like this that tells me the GOP has no integrity whatsoever, and proves the point that their angertainment industry is dead set on lying and trying to scare the hell out of people for no other reason than they know they'll likely believe them.

The GOP Chair tweeted: "How long until Democrats send the IRS ‘SWAT team’ after your kids’ lemonade stand?

https://Twitter.com/GOPChairwoman/statu ... uaTiN2NnSw

Meanwhile the House Republicans are trying to pass bills that prevent post birth abortions that never happen and now the repeal of funding for an imaginary army of 87,000 IRS agents.

DCP has gone on record that he watches Fox News for most of his political information. Need I say more?

Solomon Pena, a failed MAGA candidate in New Mexico, is blaming election fraud for his loss and his response is to arm himself and others and orchestrate drive by shootings at the homes of various Democrats. It is being reported on all the major News outlets except FOX.

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said that the search for classified documents misplaced by Biden was complete multiple times, only to later find that there were more several times.
The best part about this is waiting four years to see how all the crazy apocalyptic predictions made by the fear mongering idiots in Right Wing media turned out to be painfully wrong...Gasoline would hit $10/gallon. Hyperinflation would ensue.

Boy, that Deep State is doubly incompetent then!

by the way, why is Santos, that pathological lying piece of trash, getting tens of thousands of dollars from a sanctioned Russian oligarch? I bet Fox would be all over that had Santos been a Dem getting that kind of money from Chinese subsidiaries.

Huh. Weird. It’s almost like the GOP is in Russia’s pocket.

Hugh Nibley claimed he bumped into Adolf Hitler, Albert Einstein, Winston Churchill, Gertrude Stein, and the Grand Duke Vladimir Romanoff. Dishonesty is baked into Mormonism.

If Santos were Democrat he'd get special protection due to his race and sexual orientation and you'd probably never know anything about him. But since he's Republican, you can get away with criticizing a gay hispanic man without be labeled a racist homophobe.

I can think of 3 Democrats who were minorities off the top of my head who have resigned because of controversies. They were reported on by Fox and Breitbart, so I'm fairly certain you can too.

My post, Ajax, is based in a reality that’s actually happening, whereas your post, as are virtually all of them, is based in an imagined larping fantasy that has no connection with anything other than what you can dream up.

Hunter Biden? Wharble wharble wharble what if what if what if! We must investigate!

Jared Kushner literally getting $2B from the Saudis, you know, the same Saudis Conservatives for years said should be held accountable for 9/11? *crickets*

Pathetic.

But because he's Republican he gets special protection for being a despicable liar void of any sense of integrity. That seems to be a rite of passage these days for MAGA.
