TYT - Mosque Arsonist Says Fox News Inspired Him

submitted by messenger

1 decade 1 year 4 months 2 weeks ago

YouTube Description:

"The propaganda on America's "Fair & Balanced" newsroom, Fox News, must be quite effective. Randall Linn, an Indiana man who pled guilty to setting a fire in a mosque, told the court that the reason for his shenanigans was that he got "riled up" as a result of watching Fox News.When the judge asked him if was acquainted with any Muslims or Islam, he responded "No, I only know what I hear on Fox News and what I hear on radio." This sterling example of the kind of American patriotism touted on Fox Nation said that "Muslims are killing Americans and trying to blow stuff up" and "most Muslims are terrorists and don't believe in Jesus Christ." Who says that Fox viewers aren't well informed!"*Randall Linn burned down a mosque, saying he only knows what he hears on Fox News. And he's not the only one to be "inspired" by their propaganda and lies. Cenk Uygur breaks down some crazy acts and crimes influenced by Fox "News."

Is it possible for me to hate Cenk and Fox News equally?

They both seem to cater to audiences that choose to tune in to biased pretend news shows devoid of any good journalism. BLAH.

Not really sure Cenk is bad journalism. I see it as reactionary, not as much so as Fox but still reactionary. I see them doing their homework though.

If you are inspired to hate by Fox News, go ahead and ban Fox News. But when the next nut is inspired by ABC, he's just a nut.

All broadcast news is slanted, illusive, and agenda-oriented. There is always a bias and any "report" always contains some truth, some falsehood, and some meaningless filler. In the creature of Cenk you have a screaming agenda and a shitload of meaningless filler, in the form of snarky attitude and sophomoric editorializing....Thinking.....basically, non-critically-thinking people with a relatively programmed subjective view of their world tend to enjoy this type of stroking. Cenks' no different than Alex Jones in tactics: He simply lights on a different brand of flaming subject matter...One that appeals to people who think they have a clue what the fuck is going on

You can hate whomever you want. If you're hating them for the same reasons, then the difference between Cenk and Fox, for me, is two things: first, Cenk openly says that he has a bias, so when he says something, you know what his bias is. Most importantly, he and his whole staff are left-leaning, so if they criticize Obama, it's a sincere criticism. Second, on issues of importance, they do fact-checking. That's not to say all their opinions are sound, but if you hear a fact on TYT, there's a reasonable chance that it's accurate, which is not the case at Fox News.
